Abstract
Traditional medicine is a body of knowledge, skills, and practices based on traditional cultures' presumptions, beliefs, and experiences in order to maintain their health. Traditional herbal treatments are highly valued among many rural or indigenous people in many underdeveloped nations. According to the World Health Organization, about 80% of the world's population relies on traditional medicine, with 60% of rural Indians using herbal treatments. During the previous five years, utilization of herbal supplements grew from 2.5% to 12 percent. The assessment of novel medications, particularly phytochemically derived materials, has opened up a large arena for study and has aided India's shift from traditional to modern medicine. Tannins, alkaloids, carbohydrates, terpenoids, steroids, flavonoids, and phenols are some of the chemical components found in medicinal plants that have a distinct physiological effect on the human body. Medicinal plants do not only exhibit natural therapeutic properties, but also provide natural prevention against various diseases. As a result, we are attempting to summarize, gather the number of plants, and their ethnopharmacological qualities in this complete review study research.
传统医学是基于传统文化的假设、信仰和经验的知识、技能和实践体系,目的是保持人们的健康。传统的草药疗法在许多不发达国家的许多农村或土著居民中受到高度重视。根据世界卫生组织(World Health Organization)的数据,全球约80%的人口依赖传统医学,60%的印度农村人口使用草药治疗。在过去的五年中,草药补充剂的使用率从2.5%增长到12%。对新药物的评估,特别是植物化学衍生材料的评估,开辟了一个巨大的研究领域,并帮助印度从传统医学向现代医学的转变。单宁、生物碱、碳水化合物、萜类、类固醇、类黄酮和酚类是药用植物中发现的一些化学成分,它们对人体有独特的生理作用。药用植物不仅具有天然的治疗作用,而且对多种疾病具有天然的预防作用。因此,我们试图在本完整的综述性研究中总结、收集植物的数量及其民族药理学性质。
