        abstract = {Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by impaired insulin secretion, insulin resistance, or both, leading to elevated blood glucose levels. It has turned into a worldwide health emergency that calls for efficient management techniques. Many cultures have long used phytomedicines, or plant-based pharmaceuticals, to treat diabetes. The purpose of this evidence-based review is to evaluate the clinical data, mechanisms of action, and efficacy of using phytomedicines to treat diabetes.
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an increasing global public health issue with high morbidity and mortality rates. Conventional pharmaceutical methods of management have limiting factors, including side effects and long-term adverse complications. Therefore, there has been an increased interest in phytomedicine, the use of plant-derived products, as an alternative or complementary approach to managing diabetes. This paper aims to provide a thorough review of the current literature on the role of phytomedicine in the management of DM. Randomized controlled trials, preclinical studies, and clinical experience are reviewed, and mechanisms of actions such as antioxidant actions, modulation of glucose metabolism, and anti-inflammatory effects are discussed.},
