Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by persistent hyperglycemia due to defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. The increasing prevalence of diabetes and the limitations of synthetic drugs have led to growing interest in herbal medicines. This study focuses on the evaluation of anti-diabetic activity of selected herbal extracts using experimental animal models. Herbal extracts were prepared using standard extraction techniques and evaluated for their phytochemical constituents. The anti-diabetic activity was assessed using streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. Parameters such as fasting blood glucose levels, body weight, lipid profile, and histopathological studies were analyzed. The results demonstrated significant reduction in blood glucose levels in treated groups, indicating potential anti-diabetic activity of the selected herbal extracts. The study supports the traditional use of these herbs and highlights their potential for development into safer anti- diabetic formulations.
