The book explores its botanical background, phytochemical composition, and traditional uses in Ayurveda, Siddha, and Unani systems.It details the plant's pharmacological properties including antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, wound-healing, and antidiabetic effects supported by modern scientific research. Additionally, it covers extraction methods, chemical profiling techniques, toxicology, and commercial applications.
