Popis:	Globally, the demand for herbal products with antioxidant capacity is increased due to many health benefits. The approach to discover new drugs through natural products has become a successful strategy in recent years. Aporosa lindleyana Baill. (Kebella) is used as a leafy vegetable in Sri Lanka. Although the root and bark of this plant showed many biological activities, only antioxidant activity by DPPH mechanism and anti-inflammatory activity are reported in leaf. The present study investigated the antioxidants [Total Phenolic Content (TPC) and Total Flavonoid Content (TFC)], antioxidant activities [Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP),1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radicalscavenging assay (DPPH),2,2’-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt radical scavenging assay (ABTS) and Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC)], anti-amylase activity(using acarbosestandard)and anti-lipidaemicactivities via anti-lipase (AL), anti-cholesterolesterase (AC) and bile acids binding (BAB) invitro of 95% ethanolic extract (EE) and water extract (WE) of A.lindleyanaleaves along with its nutritional value.Both extracts showed significant differences (P
