Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM), also known as insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DNID), is a serious and debilitating disease that affects people around the world. Herbal plants have been used to treat diabetes all over the world. Among the many types of herbs and polyherbal plants, many are used to treat and control diabetes. They also do not have side effects. Diabetes is a dangerous disease that affects people all over the world and poses a serious risk to human health. So herbaceous plants may be a potential cure for diabetes mellitus, with crop data showing that up to 800 plants may be able to fight the disease. Synthetic oral hypoglycemic agents / insulins have been widely used as anti-diabetic drugs and have been shown to be effective in the management of hyperglycemia, but have significant side effects and do not affect diabetes mellitus. This is the main reason why more and more people are looking for other drugs that have little or no side effects. In this review, we have given botanical names, generic names, ingredients and procedures for the prevention of diabetes, as well as commercial formulations of plant polyherbs.
