Abstract :
Many plants are useful in the traditional
medicinal system for treating a wide range of conditions
and illnesses. W. Coagulans (Stocks) Dunal (Solanaceae),
known as the "Indian cheese maker", is an important
medicinal plant classified as Indian or herbal organic
plant. It is also known by trade names panir (or paneer)
doda. Withania coagulans is a tiny shrub that grows
throughout South Asia and the eastern Mediterranean
region. It is a widely used medicinal herb in several
regions of India and Pakistan. In Ayurvedic medicine,
coagulococci are often used to treat diabetes.
Withanolides isolated from the aqueous extract of the
fruits of the plant have been shown to have excellent
antihyperglycemic and antidyslipidemic activities, as well
as wound healing, anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective,
hypolipidemic, and antifungal properties. The current
review paper emphasises the importance of taxonomical
classification, morphology, phytochemistry, species,
botanical name, pharmacological action, and food
applications. This extensive data will be very beneficial to
researchers in the future.
