Abstract
Diabetes is a metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia. It is one of the chronic non-communicable diseases after tumor and cardiovascular diseases, which seriously threatens the life and health safety of human beings. Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors can reduce fasting blood glucose and postprandial blood glucose. Compared with traditional inhibitors, the hypoglycemic components extracted from plants have less side effects, have an integrated mechanism of action, and the advantage of mild and lasting effects. Drying technology plays the role of controlling insects, mildew and not easy to deteriorate, which is conducive to the storage, transportation and dispensing of plants, so drying has become the essential operation unit of plants processing. Recently, various drying methods have been applied to the processing of hypoglycemic plants. The choice of drying technology affects the content and activity of active substances in plants, as well as the energy consumption, equipment investment, and drying cost. Therefore, this article reviews the effects of commonly used drying methods on substances with glucosidase inhibitory activity in hypoglycemic plants.
