Abstract

Background: Medicinal herbs are commonly used as fundamental ingredients in Asian countries. Our goal was to transcribe the ethno medicinal usage of Aleurites moluccanus and to highlight the stated pharmacological activity and composition. Methods: Chemical composition and various pharmacological virtues of the different constituents of Aleurites moluccanus were obtained after an extensive survey from different scientific databases namely Elsevier, PubMed, Science Direct, Web of Science, Taylor and Francis, Google Scholar, Wiley On-line Library and ACS publications. Results: Aleurites moluccanus are commonly used as a spice and flavoring element in cuisines, and their health advantages are well known. Perfumes contain them as well. Carbohydrates, proteins, minerals, lipids, essential oils, flavonoids, terpenoids, and carotenoids are among the chemical constituents of cardamom that have been identified through phytochemical investigations. Antioxidant, anti-diabetic, antibacterial, anticancer, gastroprotective, and insecticidal actions are only a few of the biological functions of the A. moluccanus. Further studies can be conducted to find out more about the pharmacological properties of the plant.
