Publikation: Bidrag til tidsskrift › Review › Forskning › fagfællebedømt
Aim: This review summarizes studies on the anti-diabetic effect of Urtica Dioica (UD) in Type-2-diabetes. Materials and methods: We studied worldwide traditional medicines, old texts, and published literature for anti-diabetic effect of UD. Electronic databases comprising PubMed, Web of Science, Science Direct, Scopus and Google Scholar were searched to collect articles published between 1990 and 2021 years. Results: Our literature investigation suggests UD as a glucose lowering, blood lipid regulating, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidation plant. Conclusions: UD’s anti-diabetic properties make it potential traditional therapeutics for lowering the clinical manifestations of T2DM through affecting hyperglycemia and therefore suggest it as a proper medication with no or limited side effects.
