The control group received regular feed and water, while the treated group received green coffee bean extract at a dose of 100 mg/kg/day. Blood samples were collected and samples prepare to estimate the levels of related biomarkers. The results show a significant decrease (P ≤0.05) in body weight after 2 months of treatment with GCBE, also, the results indicated that there was a significant increase (P ≤0.05) in RBC, PCV and Hb concentration in green coffee treated group when compare with control untreated group, while there is a significant decrease (P ≤0.05) in WBC in green coffee treated group when compare with control untreated group. On the other hand, there is a significant decrease in liver enzyme in green coffee treated group when compare with control.
