Ethnomedicinal Plants Used in Gujarat For the Treatment of Various Diseases
India’s traditional medicine, which is based on medicinal plants, exhibits a strong connection to healthy living, diet, and folk healing practices recognized by a particular community. The current study's objective is to conduct an ethnobotanical review of the medicinal plants used as traditional medicine in Gujarat, including details on plant species, sections used and therapeutic applications. Information was gathered and used to support previously published data about medicinal plant pharmacology in journals and books. The inventoried plant species in the current work are frequently used for the treatment of various illnesses and to ensure the medication safety of local people. Studies on these ethno-medicinal plants would be helpful for the preservation of traditional medical knowledge as well as the discovery of new plant-based drug compounds that exhibit enormous pharmacological value. Information on these plants could be obtained from traditional medicine practitioners and tribal people of the Aravalli district.
