| dc.description | People who are suffering from diabetes mellitus are at increased risk of developing a number of complications and glucose intolerance due to deficiency of certain minerals like Mg, Zn, Cr, Mn . Gymnema sylvestre is one such anti-hyperglycemic medicinal plant which is now popularized owing to lesser side effects and low cost compare to conventional drugs. The mineral contents of Gymnema sylvestre leaf was measured by means of Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optical Emission Spectroscopy following AOAC method 985.01. The results of this study showed that the leaf contains a higher amount of minerals like Ca, Fe, Mg, Mn, Cu, Zn, Ni, Se, Mo, Cr which are 1580 mg, 19.26mg, 604.8mg, 74.1mg, 13.22 mg, 24.02 mg, 2.36 mg, 0.12mg, 0.230mg, 0.071mg respectively per 100gm leaf . Both from laboratory study and review it may be concluded that high mineral content of Gymnema sylvestre may be proved to be beneficial in controlling diabetes related complications like trace minerals deficiency and glucose intolerance. | |
