%X objective: the objective of this study was to analyze the effect of spirulina and/or exercise training in the control of serum glucose homeostasis in diabetic rats. materials and methods: young wistar rats were induced to diabetes by intravenous alloxan administration and separated into four groups: diabetic control (dc), diabetic spirulina (ds), diabetic exercise (de) and diabetic exercise spirulina (des). results: there were no differences between groups with respect to: body weight, food intake, glucose tolerance, insulin tolerance and blood lactate concentrations during a swimming effort test. ds group showed lower insulin concentrations when compared with dc (pancreas) and de and des (serum). conclusion: the protocols of exercise and supplementation with spirulina used in the present study were not able to improve serum glucose homeostasis in diabetic rats.
