Abstract

Rumex acetosa, also known as sorrel, is a perennial herbaceous plant belonging to the buckwheat family. Both as a cultivated plant and as a wild species, sorrel has been used for thousands of years. Numerous bioactive substances have been discovered in recent studies that have examined Rumex's various phytochemical and pharmacological capabilities. Plants have several health benefits because of the abundance of phytochemicals found in plants, including phenylpropanoids, isoprenoids, alkaloids, sulfated compounds, peptides, and polysaccharides, they possess biological qualities including anticancer, antifungal, anti-dysenteric, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiulcer, antibacterial, anti-coagulant, and antihypertensive properties. Sorrel provides a decent source of micro-and macro-nutrients in its leaves. So when we use uncooked plant components, excessive quantities of oxalic acid impair the bioavailability of some nutrients, particularly calcium. Because of their antioxidant and anti-microbial properties, Rumex species are used to preserve food. Food plants are taken into account not only both from a nutritional aspect but as a preventative measure for the most prevalent lifestyle diseases, like diabetes, cardiovascular illnesses, and cancer. To demonstrate the full impact of so many sorrel chemicals, more research is required. More research needs to be done on phytochemistry's potential as a medicine. More study is required to support these medical claims; nonetheless, this review attempts to bridge the knowledge gap and so provides sufficient data for ongoing studies on its potential as a functional food.

Abstract

Henna (Lawsonia inermis, Litheracae) has been used cosmetically and medicinally from ancient times. Henna is a medicinal plant that has been widely used as an antioxidant, and antimicrobial. Sometimes it is applied directly to the affected area for itching, eczema, scabies, wounds, and burning of the skin. Currently, several scientific investigations are aimed at the isolation and identification of active constituents of Henna. This article indicates the most salient pharmacological actions of Henna. The main pharmacological actions of henna and compounds isolated therefrom include anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, anti-hyperglycemic, and anti-lipidemic. Henna is considered a safe herbal medicine with only a few insignificant adverse/ side effects. So this article aims at reviewing the most salient recent reports on these investigations. The main pharmacological actions of henna and compounds isolated therefrom include lawsone, coumarine, anti-microbial, anti-tumorigenic, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, anti-hyperglycemic, and anti-lipidemic.
