Exploring the Role of Ethno-Medical Plants in Traditional Healing Practices in India

Author(s) Dr. Kanchan Vaidya
Country India
Abstract The ethnobotanical, phytochemical, pharmacological, and toxicological properties of traditional medicinal plants often utilized in Ayurvedic medicine are examined in this study. These consist of Aloe Vera (Aloe barbadensis), Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia), Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus), Neem (Azadirachta indica), and Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera). According to ethnobotanical surveys, these herbs are commonly used to treat conditions like stress, skin conditions, inflammation, and reproductive health. Several bioactive compounds that contribute to the therapeutic properties of plants, including withanolides, flavonoids, anthraquinones, and glycosides, have been found by phytochemical analysis. Its significant bioactivity is demonstrated by pharmacological study; neem possesses strong antibacterial and antioxidant properties, and ashwagandha and guduchi have significant activity in lowering inflammation and stress. Toxicological experiments verify the relative safety of these plants; in acute tests, the majority of plants did not exhibit any noticeable harm, save for Neem, which in sub-chronic toxicity testing showed a little increase in liver enzymes. These findings support the plants' continued use in traditional medicine and show their potential for broader pharmaceutical applications.
