Abstract

The ethno anti-diabetic plant database of India is a comprehensive compilation of indigenous plants used in traditional medicine for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. This database contains information on 1305 plant species that have been reported to have anti-diabetic properties based on ethnobotanical surveys, scientific research, and traditional knowledge. The plants have been categorized according to their scientific name, family, local name, parts used and availability among the 29 States. The database aims to provide a valuable resource for researchers, healthcare professionals, and the general public to explore the potential of traditional medicine in the management of diabetes. It also highlights the need for further scientific investigations into the efficacy and safety of these plants for the development of new anti-diabetic drugs.
