  • Abstract:
  • Plants have been an important source of medicine for humans since time immemorial. And today also we find there is increasing demand for medications, health products, food supplements, cosmetics, and many more obtained from natural sources as plants due to their fewer side effects compared to drugs. A review on the pharmacological activities of the plant named Tinospora cordifolia with its chemical constituents is given in the present review. Tinospora cordifolia, also known as “Amrita” (due to its detoxifying, rejuvenating, and immune-boosting properties) or "Guduchi,” is the traditional and important Indian system of medicine, and its traces have been found in various classical texts. It has been widely investigated in treating metabolic and immune disorders, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, infectious disease, and many more. Till today, much research has been done on the activities of T. cordifolia, and some are still being carried out. It is effective in viral and other diseases due to immunomodulatory action. This paper presents a critical review of details about the plant constituents, its morphology, and its therapeutic effects, which can be used for further research.
