Description
"Evaluation of Antidiabetic and Cardio-Protective Activity of Ethanolic Leaf Extract of Passiflora Foetida L." presents a comprehensive investigation into the medicinal benefits of Passiflora foetida L. in managing diabetes and cardiovascular disorders. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the extract’s effects on diabetic and cardiac disease-induced rats, focusing on crucial health parameters such as blood glucose regulation, lipid metabolism, and oxidative stress. Through detailed experiments, the study reveals that the ethanolic leaf extract exhibits significant antidiabetic effects by lowering glucose levels and improving lipid profiles. Additionally, the extract demonstrates cardio-protective properties, reducing oxidative damage and supporting cardiac function. The book also discusses the chemical constituents of Passiflora foetida and their potential mechanisms of action. It highlights the therapeutic potential of this plant as a natural treatment option for diabetes and heart diseases, offering valuable insights for researchers, healthcare professionals, and those interested in plant-based medicinal therapies.
Abstract
This study explores the therapeutic potential of the ethanolic leaf extract of Passiflora foetida L., commonly known as the wild passionflower, for managing diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Using diabetic and cardiac diseased rat models, the research evaluates the antidiabetic and cardio-protective effects of the extract. The study investigates key physiological parameters such as blood glucose levels, lipid profiles, oxidative stress markers, and heart function indicators. Results demonstrate that the ethanolic extract significantly reduces blood glucose levels and improves lipid profiles, suggesting its antidiabetic properties. Furthermore, it exhibits protective effects on cardiac tissues, reducing oxidative damage and improving heart function markers in the treated rats. The findings provide scientific evidence supporting Passiflora foetida as a promising natural remedy for diabetes and heart-related diseases. This work contributes to the growing body of research on plant-based therapies in managing metabolic and cardiovascular health.
