The present study is to evaluate the in-vivo anti oxidant effect of hydro alcohol (50% aqueous ethanolic extract) extract of Nelumbo nucifera (G) flowers on streptozotocin-induced diabetes. Animals were induced for diabetes with streptozotocin (60 mg/kg of body weight, i.p.) and treated orally with hydro- alcoholic (50% aqueous ethanolic extract) extract of Nelumbo nucifera (G.) flowers in various doses (200 mg/kg and 400 mg/kg p.o). The effect of Nelumbo nucifera (G) flowers on diabetes was assessed from plasma glucose. At the end of the study, vital organs were dissected and estimated the parameters such as LPO, GSH, GPx and peroxidase. From the data obtained in this study it could be concluded that hydro alcoholic extract of Nelumbo nucifera (G) flowers seems to have potential value for the treatment of diabetic due to its Anti oxidant activity.Keywords
