therapeutics values of plant derived compounds
DESCRIPTION
Natural products, including plants, animals and minerals have been the basis of treatment of human diseases. History of medicine dates back practically to the existence of human civilization. The current accepted modern medicine or allopathy has gradually developed over the years by scientific and observational efforts of scientists. However, the basis of its development remains rooted in traditional medicine and therapies. The history of medicine includes many ludicrous therapies. Nevertheless, ancient wisdom has been the basis of modern medicine and will remain as one important source of future medicine and therapeutics. The future of natural products drug discovery will be more holistic, personalized and involve wise use of ancient and modern therapeutic skills in a complementary manner so that maximum benefits can be accrued to the patients and the communityTRANSCRIPT

Introduction
• Powerful ingredients.
• Only 15% of estimated plant species on earth have been investigated for possible Medicinal uses.
• No magic, diets high in fruits, grains, legumes reduce the risk of a various number of diseases
• More than 95 % of the population in the least developing countries use herbs for health and other purposes.

Ayurveda
The aim of Ayurveda
is proper maintenance of
metabolic equilibrium
of the human psychosomatic
material and the
restoration of the same to the
normal when disturbed

• When the balance between these two is lost, disease is manifest.
• Diagnosis is performed primarily through the pulse and tongue.

New approach
• Biotransformation:
The chemical conversion of an exogenously supplied substance by living cell cultures, permeabilzed cells or entrapped enzymes derived from cell culture.( Yeoman et al., 1990)
• Single step or multiple step
• A method used to improve the product yield.

• Toxicities are not well defined in herbal medicine
• Risk of overdose is higher
• Too much believe in herbal therapy
• Herbs and other alternatives therapies are more likely to abandon potentially beneficial conventional therapy when faced with an illness.

• Report suggests that anti-stress and anti-oxidant activity of OS which suggests the free radical scavenging effect of OS (Sen et al., 1992).
• Ethanol induced ulcers are due to direct necrotizing effect of ethanol on gastric mucosa (Miller and Henagan, 1984) so OS increases mucus secretion.
• In PL, ulcers are developed due to accumulation of gastric acid and pepsin which leads to auto-digestion of gastric mucosa (Goel and Bhattacharya, 1991).
