Ocimum tenuiflorum Linn. is an Ayurvedic herb commonly regarded as Tusli or Holy Basil. The plant has a long traditional medicinal history. In India Tulsi is worshipped by Hindus and is abundantly found in all regions. Each part of a plant like stems, roots, seeds, leaves, flowers, and fruits have their own curative properties and functions reported by many researchers. The varieties of active chemical constituents; terpenoids, phenols, flavonoids, phenylpropanoids, fatty acid derivatives, essential oil, fixed oil, and steroids are extracted from the Ocimum tenuiflorum plant and are determined of great therapeutic activities. The therapeutic actions of Tulsi compounds recreate their remedial attention and in the standardization of their medicinal results. Eugenol, Oleanolic Acid, Linalool, Ursolic Acid, Beta-Caryophyllene, Rosemarinic Acid, Estragole, Carvacrol, Methyl Cinnamate are the major compounds which are leads to various actions against diseases. This review article summarizes researchers validated various pharmacological actions of these active chemical constituents that have great potential against, antidiabetic, antioxidant, anti- inflammatory, antimicrobial, antiviral (especially against Covid-19/Coronavirus, helpful in the current scenario of “pandemic”), cardioprotective, antihypertensive, and other activities as well. This will be useful for developing new active principles and therapeutics or new life-saving drugs by researchers, practitioners, and students who were implicated in the field of ethnopharmacology.

Adiantum lunulatum (Hamsapadhi) is a cosmopolitan tropical fern that is traditionally employed in folklore medicine to address various maladies. The fern is a reservoir for major plant secondary metabolites like tannins, saponins, alkaloids, phenolics flavonoids, etc. Accredited the presence of phytochemicals the fern portrays pharmacological properties like antimicrobial, antifertility, hepatoprotective, anti-ulcerative, antipyretic, gastroprotective properties, etc. Despite numerous evidences of pharmacological applications in traditional medicines, there are very few in vitro and in vivo studies on the fern to corroborate its pharmacological properties and to appraise it as a prospective therapeutic agent, thus necessitating more research in this fern. The current review circumscribes the phytochemistry of the fern and its concomitant pharmacological properties.

Traditional Chinese medicine has used also known as "Lingzhi or Reishi," for more than 2000 years for its superior therapeutic activity, including its antitumor, antiallergenic, antiviral, hepatoprotective, antioxidant, immunomodulator, hypotensive, hypoglycaemic, anti-inflammatory, antithrombotic, antibacterial, and many other health benefits. G. lucidum has recently been under scientific study to see how many bioactive components it has that have an impact on human physiology. It has also been used to make powerful components for the pharmacology, nutraceuticals, and cosmetics sectors. For instance, mounting data suggests that this particular species of mushroom may be an effective antiviral drug for the treatment of a variety of viral infections, including enterovirus 71, dengue virus, and most recently coronavirus disease of 2019. (COVID-19). One of the oldest herbal remedies, Ganoderma lucidum grows in a wide range of places on deciduous trees (dead/dying trees). Adenosine, phenols, steroids, amino acids, lignin, vitamins, nucleotides, and nucleosides are among the 400 primary bioactive chemical components that it also includes. Polysaccharides, triterpenoids, polysaccharide-peptide complex, -glucans, lectins, and natural germanium (Ge) are all included. derived from Ganoderma fruiting bodies, mycelia, which also provide a wide range of useful medicinal qualities. However, we reviewed and described in this paper about pharmacological mechanisms for treating numerous disorders in relation to Ganoderma lucidum extract (polysaccharide and triterpenoid).

Herbal medicine used traditionally from ancient times. it is used in treatment or prevention of various disease. Herbal drugs are harmless to human body and treat cancer. Some herbal drugs prevent chemotherapy or radiation therapy by treating cancer cell. Certain herbs enhance the effect of chemotherapy in a toxic way that leads to unwanted side effect the various herbal drugs cancer activity can be seen or accessed below like astragalus, dong quai, burdock root, ginger, aloe vera, turmeric, licorice, tea, onion, artemisia annua. Medicinal herbs and their derivative phytocompounds are being increasingly recognized as useful complementary treatments for cancer. A large volume of clinical studies has reported the beneficial effects of herbal medicines on the survival, immune modulation, and quality of life (QOL) of cancer patients, when these herbal medicines are used in combination with conventional therapeutics. We also report recent studies on the biochemical and cellular mechanisms of herbal medicines in specific tumor microenvironments and the potential application of specific phytochemicals in cell-based cancer vaccine systems. The effort has been put into the verification and upgrade of many traditional remedies or multiple-herb formulations, systematic, standardized research and the use of FDA regulatory protocols and defined clinical trials are still quite limited and need to be actively pursued.
