Abstract
In our daily life we encounter a lot many organisms. Many of them are so small that they can’t be seen with the naked eyes. We might as well not feel their presence. Our body’s immune system is so very capable of resisting any changes induced by them or by their presence but it should also be known that some of these organisms have developed methods or are so capable to resist even our immune system. Hence, they show their superiority over us by inflicting us with disease. We often rely on the medicines that contain various chemical substances to tackle with these diseases. Also these chemicals are not 100% safe to use, meaning; they have certain side effects along with their curing capabilities. These effects might not be seen instantaneously but can be felt in a long term. It has almost been the whole time that the man is searching for these types of products that can cure our illness without leaving any side effect. So the focus is shifted towards the plant products that are known to be comparatively friendly [1, 2]. The medicinal properties of plant products have been known to man for quite a long time and many tribal as well as city population still practice its use. There is now a lot of research going on to find the various plant products that can be used, whether alone or along with some chemical compound/drug synergistically [3, 4, 5].
