Journal Title: Indian Journal of Research in Pharmacy and Biotechnology - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 4

Abstract

Today, herbal medicine is becoming more and more popular as a safe and effective means of treatment for many different medical conditions. Herbs are often preferred because they are natural and do not put harmful chemicals into the body. Herbs are available fresh, as capsules, powders, extracts, roots, etc. Some people prefer to grow their own. Always seek advice from an expert before taking herbs as a supplement or as a health remedy. Traditional healers have long used botanicals to prevent or cure infectious diseases (Dhinahar S 2011). Cloves are the aromatic dried flower buds of a tree in the family Myrtaceae, Syzygium aromaticum. Cloves are native to the Maluku islands in Indonesia and used as a spice in cuisines all over the world. Cloves are harvested primarily in Indonesia, India, Madagascar, Zanzibar, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.
