Indians are genetically more susceptible to diabetes and the W.H.O
predicts the number of diabetes in India would go up to 40 million
by 2010 and 74 million by 2025. Diabetes is associated with
long-term complications that affect almost every part of the body.
However Insulin administration is effective to some extent in
increasing the life expectation of diabetic patients, but there are
wide spectrum of limitations as well as draw backs for this
therapy. Some Oral hypoglycemic agents are also employed in this
regard, such as renal damage and neurological disturbances. There
are great deals of evidences to suggest that the use of carefully
chosen herbal remedies and dietary supplements to prevent and
control the diabetes.The leaves of the plant Actinodaphne hookeri
Meissn.(Lauraceae)have been traditionally claimed to be useful in
diabetic conditions but yet no scientific reports are available in
this regard. Hence the plant Actinodaphne hookeri Meissn leaves was
selected for Phytochemical investigations and Anti diabetic
activity.
