Diabetes, a silent killer, ravages the kidney and liver, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. Studies have suggested a link connecting dysfunctional liver and renal activity alongside glucotoxic retinopathy in patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Against this background, our preclinical study unveils the remarkable nephro-hepatoprotective effects of herbal teas from Hibiscus sabdariffa, Moringa oleifera, Zingiber officinale and Azadirachta indicain diabetic male Wistar rats induced with alloxan. Diabetes of artificial source was administered through a one-time interperitoneal administeration of about seven categories having 6 rats in the individual group. control (glycemic), diabetic groupthat is made up of alloxan treatment + Zobo (100+400 mg/kg)., alloxan + moringa (100 +200 mg/kg), alloxan + ginger (100+500 mg/kg), alloxan + Dogoyaro (100+250 mg/kg), and lastly, the alloxan +glibenclamide (100+5mg/kg) were orally given for 28 days. Reduction of tissue weight was observed upon administration of alloxan which was ameliorated upon treatment with the selected herbal teas. Also, elevated levels of liver and kidney biomakers induced by alloxan were reversed upon administration of...

This paper describes the Quantitative estimation and LC MS study of selected plants are Adenocalymma alliaceum and Turbinaria ornata. Is a plant belonging to the family Bignoniaceae commonly called as ‘Garlic vine’ and or ‘false garlic’. Turbinaria ornata (T. ornata) is one of the main seaweeds in the marine ecosystem that has been used as a source of medicine among brown seaweeds. These brown algae belong to the family Sargassaceae. This review paper discusses in detail study of quantitative estimation and LC MS study. Quantitative determination of Adenocalymma alliaceum shows the presence of alkaloid, flavonoid and tannin. Quantitative determination of Turbinaria ornata shows the presence of alkaloid, phenol, flavonoid and tannin. LCMS study reveals the presence of 1-hexamine, Apigenin and p-coumaric acid in Adenocalymma alliaceum and Tetradecanoic acid, Hydroperoxide and Nonyl trifluoroacetate in Turbinaria...

Asafoetida is a gum-like substance with a strong odour used for many years in traditional medicine and cooking. However, growing the Ferula plant from which it is derived is challenging because it requires specific growing conditions. A study was conducted to see if it is feasible to grow Ferula Asafoetida in a controlled environment with an HVAC system. The researchers grew two groups of Ferula plants using different methods: outdoors and in a greenhouse with an HVAC system that maintained the temperature at 20-25°C and the humidity at 50-60%.The results showed that the Ferula plants grown in the greenhouse with the HVAC system produced a lot more gum-like resin than the plants grown outdoors. Additionally, the plants grown in the greenhouse had a more uniform growth pattern and fewer problems with pests and diseases. In summary, the study suggests that growing Ferula Asafoetida in a controlled environment with an HVAC system can increase yields and improve the health of the plants. This could benefit commercial Asafoetida production and make...

Its use has been confined primarily to the management of diabetes mellitus and similar hypo/hyperglycemic conditions. Despite the part used being the leaf, another common name of this species is miracle fruit. Gymnemasylvestre R.Br., a potent herb with active ingredients with antidiabetic and antioxidant potential, is one of the best examples. This review paper emphasizes mainly on the various pharmacological activities and various uses of this plant. G. sylvestre is mainly credited for excellent antidiabetic property and can also provide several other properties including antioxidant, immunomodulatory,...
