Anti-diabetic Edible Plants, Anti-diabetic Activity, Garo Community, Toxicity StudyAbstract
Metabolic syndrome characterized by inadequate insulin secretion. The world's 2.8% of the population is affected by diabetes, and it is projected to reach 4.4% by 2030. Recently plant-based products have given significant results for curing diabetics. In this review article, we have summarized the taxonomical classification, phytochemical investigation, toxicological study, and anti-diabetic activity of nine edible plants traditionally used by Garo communities of Meghalaya to cure diabetic mellitus. The book “Antidiabetic Plants in India and Herbal Based Antidiabetic Research” by K Chandrasekhar Naidu and T Pullaiah helps to choose the anti-diabetic plant species of Meghalaya and Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, Google Scholar databases have been used for collecting the complete information of plants. Literature reveals that all the selected plants contain bio-active constituents (alkaloids, phenols, flavonoids, tannins, terpenoids, glycosides, etc.), do not give a toxic effect at the highest level of dose, and give significant anti-diabetic activity. This review article helps natural researchers discover of new anti-diabetic drug.
