Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels and disturbances in carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism. The treatment of diabetes with synthetic drugs is costly and chances of side effects are high. Phytomedicine has been used since ancient times in various parts of the world where access to modern medicine is limited.

This study provide a comparative information about the constituents of Centella asiatica, Phyllanthus niruri, Morus indica and Trigonella foenum-graecum (leaves andseeds) and its effect in sugar level reduction invitro.
