The Immunity-Boosting Agents of Antioxidant Property of Plant Growth and Sustainable Utilization of Ethno Botanical Uses of Medicinal-Plants in Primary Components

Plants have been used in traditional herbal medicine for a long run. Several thousand plant species have been reported to possess medicinal properties. Eighty percent of world population relies on the plant-based drug resources for their primary health care needs as estimated by world health organization. The demand is due to the increased acceptance of 'Ayurveda' and traditional herbal medicines, because of having their no side effects, and as such modern people relies more on drug resources of plant origin. It is an established fact that medicinal plants play a great role in our life. A major part of the total population in developing countries still uses traditional folk medicines obtained from plant sources (Farnsworth, 1994; Srivastava et al., 1996). People live mainly in the districts partly depends on leaves, tubers, barks and fruits of terrestrial forest plants and use plant-based drugs as medicines, thereby offering much scope for ethno botanical studies. The growing demand for plant-based medicines, health products and pharmaceuticals led to the depletion of plant resources.
