Abstract

According to the World Health Organization, 80% of the world’s population relies mostly on traditional remedies including the use of plant extracts or active components. India’s mega-biodiversity and knowledge of rich historic traditional systems of medicine (Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani, Amchi, and local health traditions) give a solid foundation for the use of a wide range of plants in general healthcare and the treatment of common disorders. Tinospora Cordifolia is a Deciduous woody climbing shrub found in India, China, and Africa. It is a member of the Menispermaceae family. This plant’s pharmacological importance stems mostly from its root, stem, and leaf. It contains a variety of photoactive chemicals, including alkaloids, steroids, glycosides, lactones, polysaccharides, and others. Practically every portion of the plant has immunomodulatory effects. It is a significant medicinal plant used in Ayurveda medicine to treat colds, fevers, diabetes, and even rheumatoid arthritis.
