Abstract :

Diabetes mellitus causes serious complications such heart disease, kidney failure, nerve damage, and eye impairment, making it a major and expanding global health concern. Even though oral medications and insulin are widely used, they are frequently expensive, have negative side effects, and are not always easily accessible. This has led to an increase in interest in natural methods of disease management. Traditional medicine has traditionally utilized jamun (Syzygium cumini), sometimes referred to as Indian blackberry, for its anti diabetic qualities. While the fruit is eaten for its nutritious content, the seeds are prized for their blood-sugar-regulating properties. Jamun seeds, which are high in active substances such flavonoids, polyphenols, alkaloids, and glycosides, promote insulin sensitivity, lower oxidative stress, and regulate blood sugar levels. This paper gives a summary of the pharmacognostic properties, phytochemical makeup, antidiabetic action mechanism, and formulation features of tablets made from jamun seeds. Jamun seed extract has medicinal potential since it can enhance glucose consumption, regulate insulin production, and shield pancreatic β-cells from oxidative damage.
