Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a major disorder of key concern worldwide. So, the plants having anti-diabetic  property are of significant interest. Gymnema sylvestre R.Br., a member of family Asclepiadaceae,  is a potent anti-diabetic plant. It is a large, woody, much branched, slow growing perennial climber  having pubescent young parts. This mesophytic to xerophytic plant is found in tropical to sub
