NATURAL PRODUCTS AS HEALTH PROTECTORS

Praveena Nadella, Dinesh Nadella

Abstract :

 The natural products have played a significant role not only in the health care and prevention of diseases but also in the preparation of cosmetics. As an example the oldest natural product ‘mandrake’ was prescribed for pain relief, turmeric for blood clotting. Similarly the roots of the endive plant were used for treatment of gall bladder disorders, and raw garlic was prescribed for circulatory disorders. Though there were no experimental proofs in the olden days, the natural products did miracles to save the lives. As these products are found efficient to control genetic disorders without any side effects, they caught the attention of the research scientists to know further. Today the drugs that are used in the treatment of Anti–HIV and Anti–Tumour are of plant origin. Thus my paper discusses the various benefits of medicines that are derived from the plant. These drugs are non–toxic and have less protein binding which results in faster action to control the disease. My paper also exhibits the classification of various drugs derived from the different parts of the plant
