Safed Musali contains some very useful active ingredients. Some of them include Spirostanol glycosides (asparanin A and asparanin B) and two furostanol glycosides (asparoside A and B). They have been isolated from the methanol extract of the fruits of Asparagus adscondens'.
Sarsasapogenin and diosgenin have also been reported from Safed Musali or Shweta Musali. Mucilaginous extract of Safed musli is also studied. The protein content is significantly high in the root of Safed Musali making it the best herb for general tonic or general debility.
The roots of Safed musali are considered as demulcent, diaphoretic, galactogogue and stimulant [1, 2, and 3].
Safed musali is useful in the treatment of diarrhea, dysentery and general debility [3].

Diabetes mellitus is a complex metabolic disease characterized by glucose overproduction and under-utilization. As the incidence of diabetes expands rapidly across the globe there is an urgent need to expand the range of effective treatments. Higher plants such as Asparagus adscendens provide therapeutic opportunities and a rich source of potential anti-diabetic agents. In the present study an aqueous extract of Asparagus adscendens was shown to induce a significant non-toxic 19-248 % increase in glucose-dependent insulinotropic actions (P < 0.001) in the clonal pancreatic beta cell line, BRIN-BD11.
In addition, the extract produced an 81 % (P < 0.0001) increase in glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Asparagus adscendens also produced a 21 % (P < 0.001) decrease in starch digestion in vitro. The present study has revealed the presence of insulinotropic, insulin-enhancing activity and inhibitory effects on starch digestion in Asparagus adscendens. The former actions are dependent on the active principle(s) in the plant being absorbed intact. Future work assessing its use as a dietary adjunct or as a source of active components may provide new opportunities for the treatment of diabetes. (Asparagus adscendens (Shweta musali) stimulates insulin secretion, insulin action and inhibits starch digestion. Mathews-J-N; Flatt,-P-R; Abdel-Wahab,-Y-H in Br-J-Nutr. 2006 Mar; 95(3): 576-81)
