Abstract

Traditional medicine is a set of knowledge, abilities, and procedures based on assumptions, beliefs, and experiences of traditional societies in order to preserve their health. In many undeveloped countries, many rural or indigenous people place a great importance on traditional herbal medicines. The World Health Organization estimates that 60% of rural Indians use. The usage of herbal supplements increased from 2.5% to 12% over the previous five years. India's transition from traditional to modern medicine has been made easier by the examination of novel drugs, especially those made using components derived from plants. Tannins, alkaloids, sugars, terpenoids, steroids, flavonoids, and phenols are a few of the chemical elements included in therapeutic plants that have a specific physiological impact on the human body. Natural therapeutic properties are just one benefit of medicinal plants; they also offer natural disease prevention. In this comprehensive review study research, we are making an effort to summarize, collect the number of plants, and identify their ethnopharmacological characteristics.
