Polyphenols and other phytochemicals from medicinal plants as eco-benign sources of therapeutics

In view of reducing the burden of chemicals on the environment, various green chemistry approaches are being used nowadays for synthesising new molecules for applications in the biomedical field. Plant-derived phytochemicals are widely used as commodities in both traditional and modern industrial impact due to their vast range of pharmacological properties. Natural remedies for anticancer, anti-diabetic, anti-covid, antiradical, and other forms of diseases in clinical settings have attracted a lot of attention in the modern world medicinal plants and their biochemical constituents have become more significant in the fields of health and medicine due to their biocompatibility. It is ascertained that polyphenols and other phytochemicals derived from plants are excellent substitutes for conventional medications used in healthcare settings. By using the suggested natural sources of polyphenols and other chemical substances of botanical origin, a variety of physiological abnormalities can be controlled, treated, and cured, including cancer cell proliferation, cardiovascular diseases.
