Medicinal plants offer significant therapeutic potential due to the presence of bioactive phytochemicals. This renders them promising candidates for the treatment of a wide range of ailments. Diabetes, a severe metabolic disorder, is conventionally managed using commercial pharmaceutical drugs. Nevertheless, these prescription medications are both economical and linked to various adverse effects. The increasing popularity of herbal remedies is attributed to their cost-effectiveness and their capacity to deliver enhanced therapeutic benefits with fewer associated side effects. This chapter is dedicated to the exploration of well-known medicinal plants, including Trigonella, Syzium, Punica, Momordica, and Gymnema species, for their efficacy in addressing issues related to diabetes. The principal goal of this chapter is to offer an in-depth examination of the chemical compositions and preclinical assessments that substantiate their anti-diabetic properties.
