Sonia Singh, Anjali Sahu

Abstract


Carissa carandas also called Karonda is used in many traditional systems like Unani, Ayurveda and homeopathic systems. Traditionally, various herbal drugs used in curing many diseases are used singly or in a combination of other herbal drugs. All parts of the plant of Carissa carandas like fruit, root, leaves etc. are used to treat many diseases traditionally. Various herbal drugs individually or in combination have been recommended for the treatment of different diseases. The Caresia carandas, commonly known as “Karonda”, has been recognized in different systems of traditional medicine to cure various diseases. It contains several phytochemical constituents belonging to the terpenoids category. Various phytochemical constituents are present in the plant like flavonoids, tannins, terpenoids, alkaloids, glycosides etc. The leaf part is used as analgesic and antipyretic, anticonvulsant, anti-asthmatic, anti-arthritis, antihyperlipidemic, antioxidant, anti-hepatoprotective, antioxidant. A higher gross heat value of this species indicates its higher potential to be used as a good fuel source. The conclusion showed that the leaf part of the extract exhibited the highest antioxidant activity and total phenolic content. So in the future, many more diseases can be controlled by the extract of leaf part of Carissa carandas plant-like wound healing activity, etc.
