| Abstract: | Diabetes mellitus is a heterogeneous
metabolic disease characterized by altered carbohydrate, lipid and protein
metabolism. So many traditional herbs are being used by diabetic patients to
control the disease. But very few studies have been performed to investigate
the efficacy of these herbs clinically. In the present study, an attempt has
been made to investigate the antidiabetic activity of roots of Cyperus kyllingia Endl. (Family—Cyperaceae) and also with alcoholic extract of
its roots in diabetic mice. The crude roots at (570 mg/kg, orally) and the
extract of the roots at (120 mg/kg, orally) showed significant antidiabetic
activity. Histological study also showed significant result.
