&nspb;&nspb;Culinary herbs and spices are utilized as traditional medicine for ages for the therapy of diabetes mellitus (DM) along with its comorbidities, with various publications that propose use of medicinal plants. But mostly exactly what are the biologically active substances of these herbs and spices with their mode of action is not clear. We ourselves reviewed roles of monoterpenes, PTP1B Inhibitors, other plant products like soya bean pulses, aloe vera etc [1-5].
&nspb;&nspb;The antidiabetic action of usually used herbs and spices got analyzed in the study by Pereira et al., utilizing virtual screening regarding 18 anti diabetes mellitus (DM) drug targets utilizing the DIA-DB webserver. Basically they wanted to find the bioactive agents of these plants and get the understanding of their molecular mode of working against diabetes mellitus (DM).
