Abstract
This review examines the use of 20 indigenous medicinal plants by the Naga tribes of northeast India. Each Naga tribe has its unique culture and traditions, and their medicinal practices vary. The review focuses on the phytochemical constituents, pharmacological and biological activities of these plants, as well as their traditional uses. The study found evidence supporting the efficacy of these plants and confirming traditional practices, but further investigation is necessary to fully understand their chemical components and biological effects for potential drug development.
