%X In this study, an experimental design was carried out on the potency of Moringa oleifera to Acarbose of STZ-induced type II diabetic rats. It also examined the blood glucose level of those rats and the weight gain and losses of the rats during the experimental period. The data used were primary data which were collected through field experimental method, taking sources from the Federal University of Technology Akure, Ondo state and Rufus Giwa Polytechnic Owo, Ondo state of Nigeria. The result from the analysis showed that Moringa oleifera had a significant potency on the blood glucose level of STZ-induced type II diabetic rats. The treatment when combined that is moringa with acarbose showed a greater decrease in glucose level. The [1] was adopted for the analysis of the results. The study, however, concluded that since rats and humans often suffer from the basic physiology, similar organs and similar body plans, moringa should be added to the diet of diabetic patients by their nutritionist and more awareness should be created by health workers on the use of Moringa oleifera to the populace.
