BASIL AND CORIANDER

Comparing Role of Basil Herbs and Coriander in Cancer Prevention

Abstract

This study is going to comparing the role of basil herbs and coriander in cancer prevention. Here, the researcher is going to do a comparison between herbs basil and corianders which are their properties make them able and effective against cancer. Later the research will lead towards understanding the importance of using these herbs in this area for lowering the symptoms of cancer and also towards the importance of antioxidants in these herbs that help in reducing or preventing from the worsening condition of cancer will be also determined. The methodology used here for conducting this study is the qualitative study also including the pragmatic approach for better understanding the areas and leading towards the desired outcomes. The results of the research have shown that there visible the role of herbs in the prevention of cancer and a number of various chronic illness. On the other hand, the usage is not observed to be that common among individual since there is very little awareness and not lot of work are done for spreading the word about this area. There is still a lot of work that can be done in this area that would result in increasing the usage of these beneficial herbs and spreading the awareness regarding the plants, herbs and products that derive from them.

Introduction

Background of the Study

There has been usage of natural compounds in such an extensive amount in the treatment of various forms of diseases, and they have been something really have interested the researchers so far. As stated by Balunas and Kinghorn, (2005) currently there are a variety of natural compounds which are being used in medicine which are exhibiting a very wide sort of chemical diversity.

This is altogether with their analogues and also with several other natural products as well. They have been demonstrating the importance of all of those compounds from the set of natural sources in the efforts of very modern drug discovery. Furthermore, it is also seen that sample sources as well as molecular mechanisms are also highly important at the time of developing of anticancer agents which are clinically useful (Balunas and Kinghorn, 2005).

It is seen since the very start of human existence that there are so many groups of humans which are extremely different with respect to their culture. Their overall lifestyle is what is simply dissimilar including their apparels, languages, eating habits and so many other such things.
