Author(s) Indrani Anand

Abstract Diabetes mellitus, a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood glucose levels, poses a significant global health challenge. While conventional pharmaceutical interventions are critical for managing diabetes, traditional medicinal plants have been utilized for centuries across various cultures for their purported anti-diabetic properties. This paper examines the historical context, current scientific understanding, and potential mechanisms of action of several prominent traditional medicinal plants used in the management of diabetes. It delves into specific examples, such as Moringa oleifera, Momordica charantia, Gymnema sylvestre, and Cinnamomum verum, discussing their traditional uses, active compounds, and the scientific evidence supporting their efficacy. Furthermore, the paper addresses the challenges and considerations associated with integrating traditional plant-based therapies into modern healthcare, including issues of standardization, safety, quality control, and the need for rigorous clinical research. The aim is to highlight the potential of these natural resources as complementary or alternative therapeutic agents while emphasizing the importance of evidence-based practice and patient safety.
