Plant chemistry is the basis of the therapeutic uses of herbs. A good knowledge of the chemical composition of plants leads to a better understanding of its possible medicinal value. Modern chemistry has described the role of primary plant metabolites in basic life f...
plant-based medicines predominate in natural medicine, whereas animal, mineral, and other forms of natural medicines are used to a relatively lesser extent. Over time, various applied systematic theories have evolved

This suggests that the degree of antiglycation activities could vary from plant to plant and in different tissues from the same plant. It is suggested that the ability to reduce the formation of AGEs is closely related to the antioxidant properties of food and medicinal plants [22, 47]. Our...
Preference ranking [23] was applied to assess the degree of preference of 10 medicinal plant species based on their efficacy to treat hemorrhoids in humans. A direct matrix ranking was conducted according to [23] to compare the multiple uses of selected eight (8) medicinal plants based on the...
