Extracts were evaluated for their glucose reducing effect in both normal and diabetic rats at the dose of 200 mg/kg body weight. Diabetes was induced by administering streptozotocin at 65 mg/kg body weight in citrate buffer intraperitonially. Blood samples were collected through tip of tail vein and the fasting blood glucose levels were estimated by using reactive strips of glucose oxidase and peroxidase. Serum lipid profiles were carried out by using ready kits by colorimetric method. The results indicate aqueous and methanolic extract of &lt;em&gt;Mangifera indica&lt;/em&gt; seed kernel possesses significant antidiabetic activity.}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Natural Remedies}, author={Rajesh, M.
