Increase in prevalence of Diabetes Mellitus is a major public health problem. It is a progressive disorder which commonly requires multiple pharmacotherapies for managing blood glucose. Use of incretin based therapy is a potential solution for management of Type 2 DM. Glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) is an incretin hormone which enhances serum insulin after food intake and it participates in glucose homeostasis and feeding behavior. Owing to high cost of treatment and general toxicity in long term use of GLP-1 agonist, hence there is review for GLP-1 receptor natural agonist which may enhance GLP-1 production. Recently, GLP-1 secretagogues activity of medicinal plants has been reported an increase in GLP-1 secretion by phytochemicals may help in management of T2DM with lesser side effects and low cost compared to the GLP-1 agonists of synthetic origin. Natural products have proven historically to be a promising pool of structures for drug discovery and a significant research effort has recently been undertaken to explore the GLP-1 activating potential of a wide range of natural products originating from traditionally used medicinal plants or dietary sources and they are a rich source for the discovery of novel GLP-1 activators. In this review, collection of GLP-1 activators from plant product that shows interaction with both catalytic site as well as secondary binding site of GLP-1 receptor were investigated and list of natural GLP-1 agonist was prepared which can be included in our dietary source. Thus almost 60% prevention of diabetes occur which is better than cure by synthetic drugs.
