Aqueous fraction of Beta vulgaris ameliorates hyperglycemia in diabetic mice due to enhanced glucose stimulated insulin secretion, mediated by acetylcholine and GLP-1, and elevated glucose uptake via increased membrane bound GLUT4 transporters.

Background: The study was designed to investigate the probable mechanisms of anti-hyperglycemic activity of B. Vulgaris.

Methodology/principal Findings: Aqueous fraction of B.
