Traditional medicine has been aware about and made use of “medicinal herbs,” for millennia. Numerous chemical compounds are produced by plants to serve a variety of purposes, including defence and protection against diseases and disorders. Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are prevalent forms of DM, characterised by deficient insulin secretion (in T1DM) or impaired insulin action (in T2DM). Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is typically identified in the paediatric and adolescent population, whereas type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is more prevalent among middle-aged and elderly individuals. The latter group often exhibits chronically elevated blood glucose levels due to lifestyle and dietary choices that are deemed detrimental to health. The black plum, or Eugenia jambolana Lam. (syn) Syzigium cumini (L.) skeels, is a medicinal plant widely used in various alternative Indian medical systems such as Ayurveda, Unani, and Homoeopathy.

Now a day’s food materials are packaged and wrapped in paper that is the dangerous practice of wrapping, covering or processing foods with newspaper and printed recycled paper materials remains commonplace worldwide, as seen in the plethora of photographs in advertisements online or in magazines showing newspaper wrapped foods. The health hazard of ink contamination to foods and long-term contact with complex chemicals should always be considered because of the potentially diverse array of biological and toxicological effects. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons inhibit the function of thyroid, adrenal and male reproductive system, like secreted hormonal imbalance due to this several disorders occurs in human body. However, proposed studies will be helpful to human health especially to thyroid, adrenal and male reproductive system deficiency caused by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons because we have avoided ink-based newspaper wrapped food materials to minimize the endocrine glands diseases. We will initiate systematic campaigns for generating awareness among all the stakeholders to discourage the use of newspapers for packing, serving and storing food items. Therefore, this...

Cannabis sativa L. is an annual herbal plant of the family Cannabinaceae and abundant in nature. It is known locally as igbo, taba, blaze, joint, pot, dope, ganja, sensi, kpoli, weed, and morocco on the streets of Nigeria, and used as a medicinal plant for many centuries in many different parts of the world. Although native to Central Asia, Cannabis is now grown globally. Cannabis is the most abused plant worldwide, used for medical and recreational purposes. Recent studies have shown its efficacy in several disease conditions, including pain, sleeplessness, depression, and intractable epilepsy. The use, handling and cultivation of Cannabis sativa in Nigeria is illegal and backed by several laws. Despite the availability of these regulations and legislation, Nigeria is currently dealing with a drug abuse issue. After alcohol, cannabis is the most often used illicit/illegal substance in Nigeria, with a 10.8% estimated prevalence use rate. Cannabis use in Nigeria has no class distinction as it is used by both the rich and the poor, with Nigeria currently...

The population is currently under threat from a new global health emergency called COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease-2019). The World Health Organization has classified the virus epidemic as a public health emergency of international concern since December 2019, when COVID-19 first surfaced at a seafood market in Wuhan, South China, and spread quickly throughout the world (WHO). In order to inform potential COVID-19 patients about COVID-19 prevention, diagnosis, treatments, and prevention, we have summarized the most recent clinical characteristic data below. We gathered information for this evaluation from a number of research reports, WHO recommendations, and other articles. It is crucial to remind readers that new information on clinical traits, diagnoses, treatment plans, and outcomes for COVID-19 is updated almost hourly. The ailment has affected people to varied degrees all across the world. The patient displays a variety of symptoms, most frequently a fever, cough, sore throat, shortness of breath, exhaustion and malaise. The condition is treated with general care, symptomatic care, antiviral medication, oxygen therapy and the immune system. To...

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the most well-studied neurodegenerative conditions. It is a debilitating chronic disease of the central nervous system (CNS). Almost 131.5 million individuals are predicted to be affected by the disease by 2050. The main effects of AD are cognitive decline and language problems. One of the factors contributing to AD is the gradual decrease in the brain’s concentrations of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. The breakdown of acetylcholine is carried out by the increased activity of the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme within the brain. Many natural and synthetic acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEIs) have been created in order to slow down the progression of the disease over the years. Currently, there are two potential AChEIs (Donepezil and Galantamine) that have shown positive clinical advantages. Furthermore, Rivastigmine is claimed to be an anti-AChE molecule showing the effects similar to Donepezil and Galantamine. The knowledge of specific as well as multitargeted molecules to treat or cure AD is the ultimate route to reach achievements in the field of AD medication. The intention...
