Adequate nutrition before and during pregnancy has greater potential for a long term health impact than it does at any other time. A woman who has been well nourished before conception begins her pregnancy with reserves of several nutrients so that the needs of the growing foetus can be met without affecting her health. Infants who are well nourished in the womb, have an enhanced chance of entering life in good physical and mental health.

Women need to attain good nutritional status before, during and after pregnancy to optimize maternal health and reduce the risk of birth defects and chronic disease in their children in later adulthood. Neural Tube Defects (NTDs) are the most common congenital malformation in Indian population. NTD has been the subject of more studies than any other congenital anomaly not only because of the ease with which this disorder can be detected, but also because of their importance as a cause of fetal death and malformation where strong interaction between environmental and genetic factors in causation has been documented.- Phytochemical Screening and Anti-Diabetic Efficacy of O. sanctum Seed Extract on Streptozotocin Induced Diabetic Rats

The present study was designed to assess the in vitro and in vivo anti-diabetic efficacy of O. sanctum seed and its phytochemical screening. In vitro inhibitory effect on carbohydrate digestive enzymes like α-amylase and α-glucosidase and in vivo parameters such as fasting blood glucose and body weight changes were studied, a potent inhibitory effect was observed on activities of digestive enzymes and a marked decrease in the glucose level in the O. sanctum seed extract treated streptozotocin induced diabetic rats was noted. Further a marked reduction in body weight was also observed.Keywords
