This review highlights the potential of Asclepias tuberosa as herbal antidiabetic agents based on recent literature, suggesting avenues for further research and therapeutic development in DM management. Considering the urgent need for safer and more effective antidiabetic treatments, exploring the therapeutic potential of Asclepias tuberosa presents a promising avenue for addressing this growing public health concern. Future studies should focus on elucidating the mechanisms of action, conducting clinical trials to validate the efficacy and safety of Centaurea-based interventions in DM management, and exploring synergistic effects with existing therapies. \u0000Furthermore, within the context of utilizing plant materials for the treatment of Diabetes mellitus, particular attention is directed towards the utilization of Asclepias tuberosa seeds.
