Anxiety is an emotional and physiological response to known or unknown causes that may range from a normal reaction to extreme dysfunction (indicative of an anxiety disorder), affect decision-making, adherence to treatment, and impair functioning, affect quality of life. There are number of herbs used in the anxiolytic activity i.e. Bacopa monnieri linn., Casimiroa edulis, Citrus aurantium Linn., Emblica officinalis, Ginkgo biloba L., Hypericum perforatum linn., Magnolia officinalis, Piper methysticum, Withania sominifera linn., Zingiber officinale etc. Compared to pharmaceutical drugs, herbs are safer and more digestible, effective and economical. As an effective treatment for various health conditions, herbs are great alternatives to pharmaceutical drugs. Unlike pharmaceutical drugs, herbs promote an improvement in overall health when combined with a raw-vegan diet and regular exercise. The leaves, roots, stems of different plants are sources of vitamin c, minerals, amino acid that can be helpful in case of CNS disorders. In review of study, we studied that anxiolytic activities of different extracts (ethanolic and aqueous extracts) of different plants in mice/rat, at the different doses (30, 100, 300 mg/ kg) have shown significant results as a Anxiolytic activity (neurotransmitter balance) using LDM , EPM parameters respectively .
