Abstract

Traditional Medicines derived from medicinal plants are used by about 60% of the world's population. This review focuses on Indian Herbal drugs and plants used in the treatment of diabetes, especially in India. Diabetes is an important human ailment afflicting many from various walks of life in different countries. In India it is proving to be a major health problem, especially in the urban areas. Though there are various approaches to reduce the ill effects of diabetes and its secondary complications, herbal formulations are preferred due to lesser side effects and low cost. A list of medicinal plants with proven antidiabetic and related beneficial effects and of herbal drugs used in treatment of diabetes is compiled. These include, Allium sativum, Eugenia jambolana, Momordica charantia Ocimum sanctum, Phyllanthus amarus, Pterocarpus marsupium, Tinospora cordifolia, Trigonella foenum graecum and Withania somnifera. One of the etiologic factors implicated in the development of diabetes and its complications is the damage induced by free radicals and hence an antidiabetic compound with antioxidant properties would be more beneficial. Therefore information on antioxidant effects of these medicinal plants is also included.

  • Herbals/botanicals have demonstrated potent anti-diabetic effects via a variety of mechanisms, such as enhancing insulin sensitivity, stimulating insulin secretion, blocking carbohydrate absorption, and reducing oxidative stress.

    “Herbals/botanicals have demonstrated potent anti-diabetic effects via a variety of mechanisms, such as enhancing insulin sensitivity, stimulating insulin secretion, blocking the absorption of carbohydrates, and reducing OS; the inhibition of α-glucosidase enzyme and the generation of advanced glycation products, the transcription of GLUT-4 and PPAR, and the presence of antioxidants.”

    From A critical review on diabetes mellitus type 1 and type 2 management approaches: from lifestyle modification to current and novel targets and therapeutic agents. (2024) · cites this paper as [138]

    The medicinal-plant sections report increased insulin release from fenugreek and Pterocarpus, possible blocking of glucose absorption by Caesalpinia, and antioxidant activity in fenugreek; the Abstract also links antioxidants to diabetes complications. The copy does not establish enhanced insulin sensitivity, inhibition of advanced glycation-product formation, or PPAR transcription as herbal mechanisms. GLUT-4 appears in a reference title, not as a finding the review describes (section labels supplied; no page numbers). (LLM, conf=0.87)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
