[51]. A randomized clinical trial (RCT) that administered
E. ofcinalis extract to newly diagnosed DM patients with
dyslipidaemia reported its anti- diabetic and lipid-lowering
potentials. Fruit extract at a dose of 2g/day exhibited superior activity to Metformin [52].
6.3 Cinnamomum verum J.Presl
C. verum, commonly called true cinnamon, is a small tree
belonging to the Lauracea family. The tree’s inner bark is the
useful part traditionally used in treating many conditions like
DM.It is also used as a spice in culinary practices to add
colour and avour to food [53]. Much research has been carried out on the biological activity of C. verum extract and its
phytocompounds. A bioactive compound extracted from the
aqueous extract has been reported to increase insulin signalling by decreasing the activity of insulin receptor kinase
inhibitors in rat epididymal fat cells. Cinnamon compounds
are supposed to regulate protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation in intact adipocytes, thereby regulating IR [54].
Oral administration of cinnamon improved glucose infusion
rate by upregulating the insulin signalling pathway in the
skeletal muscles of Wistar rats. In the study, it was seen that
the cinnamon extract did not affect insulin secretion.
However, it signicantly increased the tyrosine phosphorylation level of the insulin receptor β subunit (IR-β) and insulin
receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) [55]. In HFD-induced models of
IR, cinnamon extract (CE) signicantly reduced hyperinsulinemia, dyslipidaemia, and plasma adiponectin. IR has been
strongly associated with the overexpression of lipid
metabolism- related biomarkers. CE regulated lipid metabolism by reducing the chylomicron-apolipoprotein (apo) B48,
VLDL-apoB100 particles, sCD36, plasma FABP4, and
RBP4 levels. At the molecular level, CE increased the IRS 1,
IRS 2, and adipose mRNA expression in adipose tissue. CE
also suppressed the overexpression of Lpl, Fas, and Fabp4
genes, which are usually the early markers of metabolic syndrome [56]. CD36, a complex multifunctional protein, is
another essential macrophage activation marker in IR conditions. The soluble form of CD36 (sCD36) is elevated in metabolic syndrome and is a surrogate marker in conditions like
atherosclerosis [57]. CE reduced the increased levels of
sCD36in adipose tissue, highlighting the protective role of
cinnamon [55]. Clinically cinnamon administration
decreased serum glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, and
LDL in individuals with type 2 DM [58]. In another pilot
study, oral administration of cinnamon for 8weeks to 15
non-diabetic women with PCOS improved insulin sensitivity
and reduced IR signicantly compared to the placebo group.
Large sample prospective RCTs are required to validate the
ndings of such studies [59].
6.4 Momordica charantia L.
M. charantia (MC), also called bitter gourd, is a medicinal
plant with a long history of usage in traditional medicine.
The unripe fruit of the plant is bitter and is a commonly used
vegetable. Cucurbitane-type triterpenoids isolated from MC
are extensively studied for their anti-diabetic activities [60].
Many biologically effective novel proteins and enzymes
have been isolated from MC fruit. These have been reported
to be effective in various metabolic dysfunctions and exhibit
cytotoxic activity against various cancer cells [61]. In diabetic animal models, MC extract reduced serum glucose levels by increasing glucose utilization in the liver. The study
also reported that the extract showed no insulin secretagogue
activity [62]. In another study, MC aqueous extract signicantly lowered blood glucose levels compared to insulin in
KK-Ay mice with IR.It increased the GLUT 4 protein content in mouse muscles and signicantly reduced hyperinsulinemia by increasing the peripheral utilization of glucose.
However, in normal mice, repeated administration of MC did
not affect the blood glucose levels. This suggests that MC
may directly activate insulin receptors in peripheral muscles
to increase glucose uptake [63]. The adenosine
monophosphate- activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a metabolic sensor that is involved in activities that regulate lipid,
glucose, and energy imbalances. It controls various key molecules of metabolic pathways and is recognized as a potential drug target for treating metabolic dysfunctions [64].
Terpenoid fractions extracted from the stem of MC has
shown to activate AMPK in cells. This further increased the
tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and triggered the insulin
signalling pathway [65]. Peroxisome proliferator-activated
receptor (PPAR γ) in the adipose tissue plays a crucial role in
glucose homeostasis and differentiation of fat cells. Synthetic
PPAR γ ligands are usually employed to activate PPAR γ,
increasing insulin sensitivity. Administration of MC extracts
to HFD-fed C57BL/6J mice increased the PPARγ mRNA
expressions in adipose tissues. It also acted as a ligand of
PPAR γ and increased insulin sensitivity. MC extracts also
regulated the PPAR α-mediated pathway to upregulate the
genes responsible for fatty acid oxidation and cellular uptake
of free fatty acids [66]. Leptins are a group of proteins
secreted by the white adipose tissue that regulate metabolic
activities, energy expenditure in the body. Serum leptin levels are usually elevated in conditions like obesity and act as
a predictive marker of metabolic syndrome [67]. MC extracts
could signicantly reduce S. leptin levels and thus may be
effectively used to manage metabolic syndrome triggered by
visceral obesity [66]. In a preliminary open-label uncontrolled clinical study, MC supplementation for 3months signicantly reduced the incidence of metabolic syndrome. The
results remained consistent after 1month of drug cessation.

Waist circumference was also considerably reduced in the
study population following MC supplementation [68]. A few
clinical trials have reported MC to be effective in DM, dyslipidaemia, and obesity [69].
6.5 Trigonellum foenum-graecum L.
T. foenum-graecum (fenugreek) is a small plant belonging to
the Fabaceae family. Fenugreek leaves are used as a vegetable in culinary practices, whereas seeds are used as a spice or
condiment. Traditional medicinal practices have recorded
much therapeutic activity of the plant, especially as a digestive aid. Many recent studies have found it helpful in treating
DM, dyslipidaemia, cancer, and obesity. It is rich in dietary
bre and contains bio constituents such as saponins, alkaloids, steroidal compounds, avonoids, and amino acids that
exhibit diverse pharmacological activity [70]. In animal
models of IR, fenugreek extract (FE) lowered serum insulin,
glucose, and triglyceride levels [71]. Adiponectin, a biologically active protein produced by adipose tissues, plays a pivotal role in regulating energy metabolism, cell proliferation,
and insulin sensitivity in the body. It also exhibits antiinammatory and anti-atherogenic activities. In conditions
like obesity, excessive fat accumulation decreases adiponectin production, causing different metabolic complications
[72]. FE enhanced adiponectin levels and caused considerable weight reduction in experimental animals. It also
increased PPAR γ expression at molecular levels to increase
fatty acid uptake and insulin sensitivity [71]. Three polyphenolic stilbenes rhaponticin (RHAc), desoxyrhaponticin
(dRHAc), and rhapontigenin (RHAg) isolated from FE have
been reported to improve insulin sensitivity and mitochondrial function in IR 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Lipid drop accumulation is a common phenomenon during the differentiation of
preadipocyte 3T3-L1 cells into adipocytes. This is usually
presented as increased triglyceride levels. FE stilbenes treatment reduced triglyceride levels during cell differentiation
suggesting its role in reducing lipid accumulation. They also
increased glucose uptake by activating protein kinase B
(AKT) and AMPK signalling pathways. IR causes mitochondrial dysfunction and decreases ATP production. Stilbenes
improved mitochondrial membrane potential and increased
ATP in adipocytes. The free radical scavenging potential of
the compounds was highlighted as one of the reasons which
promoted the biological activities of these compounds.
Among the three compounds, RHAc showed maximum
activity [73]. In mice, intragastric administration of FE
reduced hyperglyacemia in HFD and STZ-induced type 2
DM.Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a signicant role
in developing IR and related complications. In the study, FE
increased the superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity for clearing excessive ROS production and inhibiting lipid peroxida-
tion [74]. Aqueous FE was administered orally to HFD-fed
C57BL/6J, type 2 DM models to study its preventive and
curative effects. HFD models with and without DM decreased
serum insulin and glucose by reducing IR. Elevated lipid
parameters were also signicantly reduced [75]. In HFD and
fat emulsion-administered models of hyperlipidaemia,
fenugreek- controlled lipid prole by inhibiting cholesterol
absorption and enhancing its excretion. Fenugreek contains
polysaccharides like galactomannan which increases the viscosity of the small intestine and thereby inhibits the reabsorption of cholesterol and bile salt [76]. A double-blind
placebo-controlled clinical study that administered FE to 25
newly diagnosed DM patients with fasting sugar less than
200 mg/dL showed considerable hypoglycaemic activity
with improved insulin sensitivity. Serum triglyceride levels
were decreased in the study population [77]. Another RCT
that administered fenugreek as adjuvant therapy to Metformin
in 12 patients with type 2 DM reduced blood glucose levels.
It signicantly increased HDL/LDL ratio compared to
Glibenclamide treated group. Although it reduced IR,
HbA1c, LDL, and triglycerides, the results were nonsignicant compared to the standard drug. Rich dietary bre
and polysaccharides in fenugreek delay gastric emptying and
inhibit glucose absorption. It was also found helpful in
reducing body weight. Nevertheless, the study’s sample size
seems signicantly smaller, and a large prospective RCT is
required to validate the ndings [78].
6.6 Eugenia jambolana Lam.
E. jambolana, called black plum or Jamun, is an evergreen
tree from the Myrtacea family. Indian traditional medicine
practices use all plant parts to treat various diseases. Jamun
fruits are advised to be ideal for inclusion in the diet of diabetic patients, and seeds are used explicitly by traditional
practitioners in the treatment of DM [79]. Interestingly
before the discovery of insulin, E. jambolana preparations
were frequently used as an antidiabetic drug in European
countries [80]. In HFD-induced obese mice models, jamun
extract (JE) reduced IR, body weight, and white adipose
mass. It also prevented liver steatosis by reducing the expression of genes related to lipogenesis. Cholesterol, triglyceride, and free fatty acid levels were also signicantly reduced.
Gut microbial dysbiosis is a major causative factor of metabolic disorders. Studies suggest that in obese individuals,
dysbiosis is seen in the bacterial ora with an increased proportion of Firmicutes and a decrease in Bacteroidetes. This
derangement alters intestinal permeability to cause increased
absorption of lipopolysaccharides and activate inammatory
pathways. JE administration helped to restore the ratio of
Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes. Prevotella, Bacteroides, and
Alloprevotella, which are typically short-chain fatty acid

26

P. G. Nair et al.
producers, were also enhanced in experimental models.
These help to improve glucose metabolism and reduce obesity and liver steatosis [81]. Administration of JE to HFD-fed
IR albino rat models reversed hyperinsulinemia, hyperlipidaemia, and hyperglycaemia. It could signicantly reduce
the IR compared to the control group [82]. In the long-term
and short-term models of DM, the ethyl acetate fraction of
JE showed good antihyperglycemic activity. The gallic acid
and other polyphenolic compounds present in the fraction
contributed to its antidiabetic activity. It was also noticed
that the apoptotic cells in pancreatic islets were signicantly
reduced in the study group due to the potent antioxidant
activity of JE.Hexokinase (Hex-1), an enzyme crucial to carbohydrate metabolism, is diminished in diabetic patients.
After 35days of administration, JE improved the expression
of Hex-1in experimental animals and restored carbohydrate
metabolism [83]. Patients usually take JE as an adjuvant,
along with other oral antihyperglycemic medications. Drugs
reducing hyperinsulinemia can signicantly treat conditions
such as DM, obesity, hypertension, and coronary heart diseases. In high fructose diet-fed animal models, an aqueous
extract combination of E. jambolana and M. charantia prevented hyperinsulinemia and hyperglycaemia. However,
alcoholic extracts were found to be ineffective [84]. An herbdrug interaction study reported that the administration of JE
along with Sitagliptin reduced the systemic exposure of
Sitagliptin. It helped reduce Sitagliptin’s side effects without
compromising its therapeutic efcacy [85]. An open-label
RCT administered E. jambolana seed powder to 30 newly
diagnosed cases of type 2 DM signicantly reduced blood
glucose levels and IR.It also reduced HDL cholesterol in the
study population and thus may be considered a suitable
choice for preventing atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular complications associated with DM [86].
6.7 Gymnema sylvestre (Retz.) R.Br.
G. sylvestre (GS) is an essential medicinal plant in the
Asclepiadaceae family. It is an effective herb used in
Ayurvedic medicine to treat DM.Leaves are the foremost
useful part. Triterpene saponins isolated from leaves are
extensively studied for their broad therapeutic activity.
Leaves on intake numb the taste buds on the tongue and
interfere with the perception of sweet taste. This helps to
limit the consumption of sweet food later. Various studies
have reported that G. sylvestre extracts and their isolated
compounds possess antidiabetic, antihyperlipidemic, anticancerous, and anti-obesity properties. It is also consumed as
herbal supplements, beverages, and teas to regulate DM and
related complications [87, 88]. In animal models of metabolic syndrome, deacyl gymnemic acid isolated from GS
decreased systolic blood pressure, hyperglycaemia, hyperinsulinemia, and IR [89]. In an afnity ultraltration method
coupled with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry,
nine sapogenin compounds in GS extract inhibited
α-glucosidase [90]. Apart from antihyperglycemic activity,
GS has shown anticancerous activity in human skin melanoma cells. It was found that GS treatment increased the
mortality of melanoma cells dose-dependent. It also
increased the expression of cytochrome c, caspase 3, PARP,
Bax genes responsible for apoptosis. On the other hand, the
expression of anti-apoptotic mRNAs of the Bcl2 gene was
considerably decreased. This study suggested that GS may
be a drug of choice for inclusion in the palliative care of DM
patients with cancer [91]. Another STZ-induced type 2 DM
study showed that GS extract increased insulin secretion in
rat pancreas by increasing insulin mRNA expression. It also
promoted endogenous β-cell regeneration by upregulating
pancreatic regenerative markers such as Pdx1, Neurogenin 3,
MafA, and NeuroD1. E-cadherin (ECAD) is a critical adhesion molecule found in islets of Langerhans which can inuence insulin production. GS administration upregulated
ECAD, inuencing pancreas structure and stimulating insulin secretion [92]. A double-blind placebo-controlled RCT
that supplemented GS to 24 patients with metabolic syndrome reduced body weight, body mass index (BMI), and
VLDL cholesterol. It showed no signicant changes in insulin sensitivity and secretion in those patients [93]. Another
RCT reported that GS supplementation to 30 patients with
impaired glucose tolerance reduced HbA1c and increased
insulin sensitivity. Improvements were noted in the anthropometric measures after treatment and reduced LDL cholesterol [94] (Table2).

7 Conclusion
The world has witnessed an irrefutable transition of disease
burden from infectious diseases and infant-maternal mortality
to lifestyle disorders. Considering universal health coverage, an
inclusive approach in integrative medicine accommodating
herbal drugs has much scope in lifestyle disorders. There is rising evidence regarding the possibilities of herbal medicines in
different states of IR and associated clinical syndromes commonly found in lifestyle disorders. In addition to standard care
medicines that focus on the patient’s routine biochemical
parameters, herbal drugs that target multiple pathways, as in IR
and associated autophagy, autoimmunity–autoinammation,
gut dysbiosis, and glucose intolerance, shall be a breakthrough
in lifestyle disorder management. However, this approach
demands safety- efcacy proling of herb-standard drug interactions. Hence pre-clinical and clinical trials that judiciously
highlight the objective of integrative medicine in IR and related
clinical states should be systematically planned and executed.

Abstract
Diseases whose occurrence is mainly related to an individual's daily living habits are referred to as lifestyle diseases.
Some of these diseases require treatment for several years,
and others require lifelong treatment. These diseases attack
men, women, and children in developed, middle-income,
and poor countries and are ranked as one of the primary
causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. For centuries,
several plants have been used for their curative and preventive abilities against human ailments including lifestyle diseases. In the past years, the therapeutic benets of a good
number of medicinal and edible plants have been studied
underlining their role in preventing and managing lifestyle
diseases, thanks to their bioactive compounds. In the present
chapter, an overview of thirty-ve frequently used plants for
the management of different lifestyle diseases, their mechanism of action and their bioactive constituents are provided.
Moreover, the suitable techniques for the extraction of phytoconstituents from these plants are detailed.

1 Introduction
Lifestyle diseases (LSD) are diseases associated with daily
habits and signies adopting detrimental habits that detract
from a healthy lifestyle [1]. Atherosclerosis, heart disease,
stroke, obesity, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperglycemia, asthma, and cancer are just a few LSD which can have
long duration, slow progression and are likely to cause
death. They result from the combination of physiological,
behavioral, environmental, and genetic factors [2, 3]. The
symptoms associated with these illnesses are not seen in the
early stages due to the fact that they take a considerable
number of times to develop. Some of these diseases have to
be treated for several years, while others need everlasting
management. These diseases attack men, women, and children in developed, middle-income, and poor countries.
Consumption of tobacco and excessive use of alcohol are
key risk factors, but there are many others such poor diets
(consumption of foods high in fat, salt, and sugar), physical
inactivity, poverty, and stress [4]. Worldwide, approximately
41million people are killed by LSD each year, including
14million early deaths between the ages of 30 and 70 [1].
Of these, cardiovascular diseases were responsible for
17.9million deaths, and the number of deaths from cancers,
chronic respiratory diseases, and diabetes mellitus were
9million, 3.9million, and 1.6million, respectively. These
four diseases account for 80% of deaths due to
LSD.According to the World Health Organization (WHO),
Europe has the highest LSD-related morbidity and mortality
rate among the six regions of the world, with approximately
90% of all deaths. In the European Region, obesity and
overweight are the most important risk factor for LSD,
affecting more than 59% of adults and 29% of children.
