Abstract
A variety of diseases have been treated with medicinal plants throughout history. It is estimated that 70 to 80% of the world's population uses either traditional or herbal medicine as part of their health care system. As a wild plant, Martynia annua Linn (Martyniaceae) is an important medicinal herbaceous annual plant that can be found in many parts of India as an herbaceous annual herb. The fruits, seeds, roots, and leaves are the most crucial parts of the plant that are utilized therapeutically, even though most of its parts are used in folklore and as kakanasika in Ayurveda. A medium-sized deciduous tree, L. coromandelica is native to the Mediterranean region. It is used for treating impetiginous eruptions, leprous ulcers, and obstinate ulcers as well as for treating sprains, bruises, skin eruptions, heart disease, dysentery, and mouth ulcers. Historically, Swietenia mahagoni has been used for its curative properties in diseases like malaria, diabetes, and diarrhea in India and some African countries. Additionally, it is used as an antipyretic, bitter tonic, and astringent. Research is being conducted on its pharmacological properties. The present study aims to review the plants (M. annua, L. coromandelica and Swietenia mahagoni) effective as anti-microbial, In-vitro anti-oxidant as well as anti-cytotoxic and alpha glycosidase inhibitory activity
