Abstract

The main objective of the present study was Antidiabetic activity of aqueous extract of leaves of Boerhaavia diffusa in alloxan induced diabetic rats was assessed.   After the treatment, blood samples were collected and the serum was subjected to estimate different biochemical parameters viz. blood glucose, insulin, cholesterol, urea, glycosylated haemoglobin, triglycerides and protein levels.   There was a steep decrease in protein, insulin and elevated level of blood glucose, urea, glycosylated hemoglobin, cholesterol and triglycerides are seen. It becomes normal after exposure of aqueous leaf extract of Boerhaavia diffusa.  It may be concluded that Boerhaavia diffusa might be used in the treatment of diabetics.
