Abstract

The present study was undertaken to evaluate effect of natural products i.e. Anthocephalus indicus; KADAM, roots, Hibiscus rosa sinensis roots, Tinospora cordifolia stem and Cassia tora seeds in normal healthy rats. In this study ethanol extract of above mentioned medicinal plants had macerated with aqueous gum acacia (2%, w/v) suspension and fed orally (500 mg/kg bw p.o.) to male adult healthy normal rats of Charles Foster strain for 30 days. Results of this study showing that alcoholic extracts caused no any signicant reduction in blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglyceride, phospholipids, free fatty acid, lipid peroxide and no signicant increased in post heparin lipolytic activity, but on the other hand as per pre-existing data and my published studies in diabetic patients and diabetic experimental animals showed that extracts exerting all above effects signicantly. That's why it is very clear here if healthy person will take natural products, it never cause hypoglycemia, hypolipidemia and under weight. Natural products also not cause any signicant change on hepato-specic parameters. Thus from this study we conclude that, natural products are safe, non toxic and free from side effects, in comparison to synthetic drugs.
