Studies of Helicteres Isoras Antioxidant and Antidiabetic Activity Review

Since ancient times, herbal medicine plants have been used to treat a variety of ailments. The helicteres isora, often known as the Indian screw tree, is a Southeast Asian medicinal plant. This study looked into the antioxidant and anti diabetic effects of plant and animal extracts. Antioxidants are necessary to neutralise harmful free radicals in the body, especially when the bodys natural defence mechanisms fail. The 1,1 diphenyl 2, picrylhydrazyl DPPH and nitric acid NO reducing tests were used to determine antioxidant activity. A glucose tolerance test was used to assess the anti diabetic activity of various extracts of H. isora roots. Distilled water, ethanol, methanol, and acetone were used to make extracts of leaves, bark, roots, and fruits both fresh and dry . Each extract was put to the test.
