“…Previous studies on medicinal plants reviewed by (WYNN;FOUGÈRE, 2007) have indicated that some of them have good potentials as antioxidants including Ginger (Zingiber officinale), Ginkgo biloba, Grapeseed (Vitis vinifera), Green tea (Camellia sinensis), Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum), Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinale), Skullcap (Scutellaria lateriflora), Milk thistle (Silybum marianum), and Turmeric (Curcuma longa).

ABSTRACT:Punica granatum flower and leaf were extracted with hydromethanol 50% and evaluated for antioxidant activity using phosophomolybdenum, DPPH, reducing power, and -OH-scavenging assays; and for antiinflammatory activity using HRBC-MS assay. Both extracts exhibited antioxidant activities indicated by DPPH decolorization and -OH-scavenging and increased Ferric reducing and phosphomolybdenum assays. Also, both extracts showed anti-inflammatory activities indicated by red blood cell membrane stabilization and reduced haemolysis-resultant haemoglobin. All results were concentration-dependent; and the leaf extract was more potent than that of the flower. The -OH-scavenging and red blood cell-membrane stability assays, respectively. Phytochemical analysis revealed presence of tannins and flavonoids with results more obvious in the leaf extract. These active principle contents may account for the recorded antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of both extracts. These findings provide evidence for the possible beneficial applications of the Punica granatum leaf and flower extracts in stress-related disease conditions and for maintenance of normal health status and well-being as well.

Over the last decade there has been a rise of ethnomedicinal studies, still small is known about use of ethnomedicine in traditional health care system of the Juang, which is one of the 75 particularly vulnerable tribal groups (PVTGs) in India. Traditional system is unique and undeniably an important cultural ingredient. The aim of the present study was to document the ethnomedicinal practices of the Juang, who live in forest fringes and hill tracks and derive their livelihood from forest-based resources. They used varieties of plant extracts, traditional knowledge and belief system for treatment as well as prevention of from various disease and ailments. Methods Besides questionnaire as a tool for data collection, Interview, observation (both participant and non-participant observation) and focus group discussion (FGD) were used. Field surveys were carried out in three phases. The informants were selected through the snowball sampling technique. Twelve males and two females key informants were interviewed. The study was exploratory and qualitative in nature. Results It was found that 38 medicinal plant species belong to 26 families as having ethnomedicinal uses in the traditional health care practice among the Juang community. Comparatively leaf part (36%) frequently utilized followed by root (21%), seed (7%), bark (7%), fruit (6%), rootstock (4%) and tender twig (3%) for medicinal purposes. Conclusions Our study can be concluded that the Juang people are rich in indigenous knowledge and have provided novel information on the use of medicinal plants to cure, protect and prevent from various diseases and ailments, that are scientific in nature. The novel information has been generated in the present study which will through a light in the direction of modern medical science for the sustainability of human society and recognize the indigenous knowledge as well. We suggested that indigenous knowledge need to be documented and integrated with scientific knowledge to develop new health care management programme.
