In ayurvedic medicine, bitter melon is popularly seen as a "plant-insulin." It has been demonstrated that bitter melon contains a protein similar to bovine insulin, sometimes referred to as p-insulin or poplypeptide-p .

IDDM and Non insulin dependent diabetics also greatly benefit from seeds eaten
