Abstract

Extracts of herbs of the Artemisia family, some of which have been known in traditional medicine to have anti-diabetic effects, are fractionated chromatographically to remove unacceptable mutagenetic properties while retaining effectiveness against Diabetes mellitus. Certain fractions are found to be insulinomemetic while others have glucagon antagonistic properties. Mixtures of such fractions have optimum clinical effect.
