ABOUT THE BOOK
Herbal medicine is the use of plants for prevention and curing of different ailments/diseases. In general, widespread use in a traditional medicinal system may indicate safety but not efficacy of treatment, especially in herbal medicine, where tradition is almost completely based on remedies containing active principles at very low and ultra-low concentrations. Natural products are obtained from different parts of plants, and their chemical composition varies on different factor; therefore, the effect also varies from person to person. Herbal extracts are prepared on the basis of the information obtained from traditional medical healers. Herbal medicine and natural products have benefited a large number of people in past and have been found to have great benefits in addressing different diseases. So, there is huge potential for future discoveries from plants-based products and other natural products, which, thus, offer great potential in deriving important information about new chemical structures and their new types of action against pathogens.
Keeping in mind of above point of view, this book is looking for research outcomes and strategies from academicians, researchers, and workers for better and fruitful outcomes.

Are there any implementations of artificial intelligence in the development of traditional medicine so far?
Like Home remedies, ayurvedic, Homeopathic
Dears
How can we make the integral use of herbal or traditional medicines with conventional medicines to enhance the efficacy of the existing healthcare delivering systems?
The Siddhar kalimbu(traditional medicine, Tamil nadu, India) has been successfully demonstrated to heal chronic diabetic ulcers. We would like to try its efficacy in healing chronic
leporosy wounds.Any one who has access to BSL2 facility and working with Mycobactrium Leprae is required for pre clinical study.
In our traditional medicine some plants are used to cure Gastrointestinal disease. do some one know about some plants or phytochemical to cure IBD?
Dears
What are the tradeoffs of using traditional medicines? Would traditional medicines have a bright features in light of the increasingly drug resistance encountered conventional medicines?
The problem of antibacterial resistance to frequently
used antibiotics has led to a search for newer and
alternative compounds for the treatment of drugresistant
infections[1]. Although pharmaceutical
companies have designed a number of new antibiotics
in the last three decades, resistance against these drugs
by microorganisms has also been observed. Drug
resistant bacterial infections are causing immense
mortality and morbidity worldwide. For example, in
2005, in the United States, 19 000 out of 95 000 patients
affected from methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus
aureus (MRSA) have died. Number of death was
higher than number of deaths combined from HIV/
AIDS, Parkinson’s disease, emphysema, and homicides
combined[2]. As many branches of treatments like postsurgical
care, neonatal care, transplantation medicine,
cancer chemotherapy, and care of the critically ill
patients need effective antibiotic treatment, failure
of conventional antibiotic treatment to combat multidrug
resistant (MDR) pathogens, caused high rate
of mortality. With this background, World Health
Organization (WHO) identified MDR bacteria as one
of the top three high priority threats to human health.
Infectious Disease Society of America has addressed
the biomedical community to declare a war against the
MDR bacterial threat. Along with intensifying research
on understanding the resistance pattern of MDR
infection, they have stressed that the ultimate goal of
scientist would be to identify appropriate and efficient
antimicrobial drugs to the patients.
As for a long period of time, plants have been a
valuable source of natural products for maintaining
human health, certain plant extracts can be a cure
for infections caused by MDR. Along with different
herbs, seaweeds and higher plants, many workers have
suggested the usefulness of mangroves in traditional
medicines. Mangroves have been used as a source of
timber, food, fuel, fodder, medicines and fish poison in
tropical coastal zones. Recently scientists have found
evidence that mangroves have medicinal properties that
can cure many diseases like asthma, diabetes, cancer,
ulcer, wounds and AIDS.
Is ethical approval mandatory to collect data from the local people about traditional medicinal animals (ethnozoological study)?
Anyone who give me updated information
Mandragora species have a long use in traditional medicine, I looking to use in my research.
WHO issued the guidelines for research methodology for traditional interventions of herbal origin in 2000. but the guidelines for evaluation of safety and efficacy of mineral and animal origin drugs are still to be in place for the researchers. I would like to know any such guidelines are in force anywhere in the globe.
In traditional medicine, some material, such as proper mineral can bleach teeth and some are consumed to darken hair. we need some organic composition( name of material/ plant) for changing skin color and evaluation of mechanism. do you know any? thanks a lot
We are compiling comprehensive details for traditional medicines and their marketing approval in a particular country. For now, we are reviewing Kampo Medicines of Japan. But somehow we are not able to get suitable guideline documents (original from Japanese Regulatory Agency's Website). Can anyone guide us? From where we can find guidelines for marketing approval of Kampo medicine in Japan?
Corona Pandemic: Proper randomised controlled studies can take many years to complete. So evidence based guidance for treatment will be scanty in the beginning of the Pandemic.
What is the next best approach to a defendable therapeutic regime?
1] Expedited trials and early approval ?
2] Basic Science Hypotheses?
3] Anecdotal/ Small case series?
4] Home remedies.....
5] Consensus groups?
Where is the position of electric element ? Nervous system is one of the very important element too in our body. The presence of Kation and Anion also indicate that Yin and Yang concept exist. Is it possible that the receptor in the skin as acupoint acts as "electric" meridian for our body to connect it with our 'qi' ?
It has been observed that a single arm study is designed to validate a pharmacopoeial formulation for its effectiveness. As such there is no guideline available in India for acceptance of the level of evidence required to support validation of a traditional medicinal product.
The contribution of natural products (NPs) to modern drug discovery can not be denied. More interestingly, the application of in silico (computer-based approaches) has even given more success to the search of NP-based starting molecules in the search for novel, potent and cheaper drug candidates. However, these in silico based methods also face some challenges. Obviously, most of the challenges are usually not discussed in scientific publications; in several cases rendering the use of in silico based approaches to investigate NPs (even in combination with experimental validation techniques) difficult to identify and propose new NP drug-base molecules. In this discussion, I would be happy if we can highlight some of these challenges. The idea is to give newcomers in this area of research an idea of what they can come across or should be expecting.
Peace
It would be great if we get information regarding this from all around the world. Like we have Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) in Ayurveda, Indian system of Medicine.
We have a Traditional Medicinal Product which has robust evidence of immune boosting capability. We have identified 2 novel compounds isolated, elucidated and characterized and they are derivatives of 3-deoxyanthocyanidins .
We are trying to assess whether this product would have potential for treating the corona-virus disease.
We attach a few of the peer-reviewed articles on this product and would be grateful for any advise on how we can go further.
We all know the effects of traditional medicine and alternative medicine on health outcomes.
Music therapy, green therapy have shown beneficial effects on treatment outcomes in patients with cancer or psychological health problems.
Color exists in everything in life. Shall we use that in healthcare, disease prevention, and health promotion?
Your novel ideas are highly appreciated.
What's your view on effect and role of traditional medicine in low fatality rate of Covid-19 in India as many States/UTs has distributed prophylactic medicine in large scale and Ministry of AYUSH has issued various advisories n guidelines time to time for wellbeing of general population.

Hello, I'm very interested in mapping and managing the conservation of the Philippine traditional medicinal plants, in which I think is very helpful in the field of medicine for further analysis and development of medicine/drug. Using the applications of Remote Sensing and GIS, can someone tell me if its possible to model and map the availability of medicinal plants within our locality, if so what and where should I get the needed data? Or should I be more specific as to what medicinal plant will I make use of? This topic is really interesting for me, this would be my thesis proposal this sem. If anyone can suggest/recommend or give me an insight about this, I would be really glad. Thank you.

While going through some publications on Polyherbal formulation for the management of diabetes, I encountered a publication where goat pancreas is used as one of the ingredients in addition to plants and calcified mussel cells. Can anyone tell me the relevance of goat pancreas and also how it can be called a polyherbal formulation?
Here is the link for the paper
A traditional medicine (e.g. Unani System of Medicine) has its own philosophy of treatment of a disease. Nowadays, there is emerging demand to validate the effectiveness of an intervention (a plant medicine or traditional procedure) in terms of science and evidence set as standard. there is a little focus on the philosophy applied for the therapeutic purpose.
Traditional medicine has been recognized by the country in which it is practiced. WHO has also recognized most of the traditional system of medicines. but some of them have been globalized. In this regard, the efforts of WHO should have been highlighted.
It allmost 10 months since 1 case of Covid-19 was detected. Countries across the globe are conducting clinical trials related to vaccines, diagnostic procedures, antiviral therapy, plasma therapy n through traditional medicine. Are we going in right direction?
DNA fingerprinting/barcoding is emerging as technique to identify raw drugs of biological origin. It has been employed as test for authenticity in Pharmacopoeias. Some authors have proved utility of the technique to identify biological drugs from polyherbal formulations as well. Is the technology reliable and cost effective to be included as test for every plant based traditional medicines?
What is the recommendation to treat anemia in traditional medicine?

It's matter of big discussion that traditional medicine may play key role in management of Covid-19. Recently, in India, Ayurveda and Yoga has been included in National management protocol for asymptomatic n mild cases of Covid-19.
In India, it is observed that large number of population is using traditional medicine for prophylaxis of Covid-19. Will there be increase in acceptance and impact of AYUSH systems in general population?
traditional medicine; quality control
Traditional knowledge of plant based drugs are very important in the remedy of diseases.
Q and A are parameters used for standardization and safety of drugs in pharmacology. Quality assurance is an integral part of traditional medicine, which certifies that it delivers the required quantity of quality drug. The standardization parameters are authentication, foreign matters, organoleptic evaluation, microscopy, volatile matters, extractive values, ash values, radioactive contaminants, microorganisms, pesticide residue, refractive index, chromatographic profiles and marker components.
The scope of validation of classical formulations in traditional medicine for their effectiveness should be enhanced. the outcome generated through such studies may be utilized for new drug development. the ultimate aim of drug research is the development of the new drugs.
Sri Lankan Indigenous Medicine is an assert to Sri Lankan health sector. In addition to its healing effect, SLIM has social and cultural values which are worth studying, researching and surveying.

The World Health Organization (WHO) defines traditional medicine as "the sum total of the knowledge, skills, and practices based on the theories, beliefs, and experiences indigenous to different cultures, whether explicable or not, used in the maintenance of health as well as in the prevention, diagnosis, improvement or treatment of physical and mental illness". But some people believe traditional medicine is contrasted with scientific medicine.
What is your opinion? Can we use traditional medicine for treatment of COVID19? If your answer is yes, how do you want to do it?
Vanadium is essential for many purposes, nadium salts are transition elements that proves to be useful to treat diabetics, and Research Page 184 Available online at www.globalresearchonline.net of insulin by initial entry into the portal system. This mini review summarized the latest advancements in this field, considering the vanadium compounds effective in organic or inorganic forms. The major concern related to the use of vanadium salts is the safety profile. Vanadate has insulin-like effects on the metabolism of glucose both in vivo and in vitro in various tissues. Vanadium salts such as Na 3 VO 4, NaVO 3, VOSO 4, VO (acac)2, and VO (Et-acac) 2 mimic several of the metabolic and growth-promoting effects of insulin. Some traditional medicines from a number of plants and plant products with antidiabetic activity also show great promise. Some studies have suggested that vanadium compounds help to normalize blood glucose levels in people with both type I and type II diabetes. Vanadium, atomic number 23, atomic weight 50.94, is a first-row transition metal that shows a wide range of oxidation states in monomeric, oligomeric, and polymeric species in solution. It exists in oxidation states of −I, 0, +II, +III, +IV, and +V; the latter two are stable solution structures at physiological pH: vanadyl (+IV) and vanadate (+V). The oral administrations of inorganic vanadium (IV, V) salts have shown anti-diabetic activity2,3,4. Vanadium compounds show insulin-like effects in vivo and in vitro. Several clinical studies have shown the efficacy of vanadium compounds in type 2 diabetic subjects. Orally administrated sodium vanadate has been reported to improve DM in human diabetes before the discovery of insulin and its clinical use to treat DM has been previously demonstrated. Vanadium compounds have been shown to be effective in animal models such as spontaneously diabetic (BB) rats and insulin-resistant Zucker fa/fa rats and recently in human trials5 . An overview on vanadium salts Vanadium salts being used as a metallotherapeutic appeared in 18996 . Early interest in vanadium as a metallotherapeutic waned, even as the exploration of vanadium's biological effects in plants and animals continued. The discovery that vanadium (V), as vanadate, was an extremely potent enzymatic inhibitor was completely unanticipated. A number of laboratories world-wide had noticed that a particular commercial preparation of ATP (from Sigma Chemical Co.) gave anomalously low catalytic rates in a standard ATPase assay 7 . But safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and bioavailability of escalating doses of a vanadium complex for therapeutic use in diabetic mellitus were assessed in 20038 . But, later vanadium-based hypoglycaemic agents appeared in the market as vitamin and mineral supplements. Since 1922, after the discovery of insulin9 , various observations have been made on vanadium's ubiquitous nature and pharmacological effect that led to a series of clinical trials in humans which proved its role as a potential cholesterol-lowering pharmaceutical agent. Vanadium is an essential trace element of unknown function in cellular regulation and an indigenous constituent of most mammalian .so how vanadium is used?
Several marine cultures have been used marine algae as a source of drugs with it is local names
I research plant use, and indigenous medicine, especially related to Ireland. Irish indigenous medicine was influenced by Greek medicine between the 14- 16th centuries as the European herbals were transcribed into Irish for use in Irish medical schools during this period. After the collapse of the Gaelic order in the early 17th century some of this knowledge seems to have blended with the Gaelic oral tradition, remnants of which we still have today.

The modern world is returning back to the nature! Organic/ Natural/ Unprocessed/ Wholemeal foods for good health, longevity - have become a craze now. But in case of treatment and prophylaxis - why do everyone opts for allopathic (the science based modern) medicine? Why not first the traditionals: Ayurveda/ Homeopathy/ Oriental/ Herbal/ Naturopathy/ Acupuncture/ Massage/ Yoga/ Dietary etc?
Aren't these scientific enough? Are they developing in appropriate pace with allopathy?
Why do modern clinicians still neglect/tease some of theses modes of therapies?
Why the new generation not getting solid confidence on these natural treatments?
You may include what you know, think, no matter this is for general knowledge.
Nowadays, adulteration of Traditional Medicine with sexual stimulant and steroids are very common and devastating problem for many countries. Those medicines are available in different dosage forms like, Tablet, Ca[psule, Liquids, Powder.
Is there any validated method to identify those stimulants and steroids e.g., Sildenafil Citrate and Dexamethasone specifically) in those different dosage form?
Traditional medicine advancement can support the nation in cost effectiveness and advancement of clinical research across the developing nation. It can reduce the cost of drug by assuring the integration to modern medicine. In collaboration with advanced clinical research centers, Bahirdar University can design new approach to advance the traditional medicine in to modern pharmaceutical and clinical experiments.
In India, separate Ministry of AYUSH has established for their own progress and development,
AYUSH system comprises of Ayurveda, Unani, Sidha and Homeopathy. My question is today, we have "modern Allopathy literature (Anat, Physio, Pharmac, Medicine, etc)" as a science for understanding of Health, however even AYUSH system of medicine also fallows the science but always these system may not fit in line with the modern medical sciences. so there may be problem for integration of AYUSH and Allopathy at Internal Medicine level.
However, as recently WHO has published a report on "Traditional Medicine" and also "Self health practices", indicating importance of these intervention for achieving the overall health and acceptance of health at the ground level and reaching towards "Universal Health Coverage"
I personally believe that many of the OPD and IPD, diseases, illness, symptoms, etc. there are scope of these alternative medical sciences particularly in rising burden of NCDs. These alternative medical sciences may be preventive, promotive and curative in nature.
i also believe that, these science need more "Operational research" at the community level and so in area of "Public Health" Today, there is need for documentaion and research and scientific support for these types of sciences.
In View of the same, what are the best practices, national policies and public health intervention available at present all over the world which supports and help in redevelopment of alternative medical sciences??
Nuclear medicine is the use of the latest scans and facilities, such as magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography scans and positron emission tomography. Sometimes nuclear medicine showed cancerous cells growth in many patients, so which is safe, nuclear medicine or traditional medicine?
India is going to become or has become the world capital for diabetes. A country which has a high value for traditional medicine and the seat for Yoga has suddenly seen itself as the world capital of Diabetes and heart disease.
Most blame it on life style but even a short look back into the lives of Indians in the past the Family values were high and had a joint family.
But today the nuclear family itself is unable to withstand the stress of family and as a result has seen more conflicts within the family.
Very easy to say Im a diabetic but its also sad to see families after families succumbing to the gene of diabetes.
who will end the chain?
Mustard oil is used in different types of food products. Is it has some medicinal properties?
What are the common method applied for analysis of the traditional medicine manuscripts?
Ayurveda, the ancient Indian System of Medicine based on the philosophy of total health and wellness is a science of life with a holistic approach considering physical, psychological, philosophical, ethical, and spiritual aspects of healthcare. Ayurveda is a very logical science based on basic scientific principles. The ancient wisdom of Ayurveda is based on time-tested theories proven by observation, trial and error and experimentation. Like most traditional medicine systems, it was developed and refined over thousands of years, using observation and experience. Ayurvedic therapies have been practiced for thousands of years much before the development of placebo controlled experiments. The science of Ayurveda does not only depend upon the symptoms but believes in a thorough examination to discover the root cause of the ailment and instead of suppressing the symptoms, Ayurvedic therapy focuses on finding the reasons for the underlying symptoms. Despite lack of much clinical research on Ayurveda, many of the system’s principles and practices are now recognized and used in conventional medical settings. Herbs used in Ayurvedic medicine, such as tumeric, ginger, and neem, are now recognized as beneficial for heart health and as antioxidant-boosters. There are many evidences, which support Ayurveda performances better than Western medicine, mainly in case of chronic diseases. In retrospection of these facts, do Ayurvedic medicines need modern scientific scrutiny and validation?

Indigenous medicine has records of treating dental problems as a part of general heath care. Oral cavity being an inherent part of the body and being a mirror to various systemic disease shouldn't it be a specialty in Medicine as ENT, Ophthal etc.. Why and when did dentistry separate itself from medicine as a separate entity?
We are working on analysis of those medical records in traditional medicine. But we are lacking those medical records in traditional medicine. Is there any place in which I can find the open data of those records?
Those records may include narrative texts with tradition medicine terminology.
R & D in traditional medicine is very important , because it will help poor persons to get cheap medicine/treatment for their illnesses.
