Different plants are used by human to treat different diseases. Ginger is an herb that belongs to Zingiberaceae family. Due to its high chemistry with above 60 compounds, it is used to treat many diseases and is beneficial for health. It is used as antioxidant, antiulcer, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory and used for nausea and vomiting and also improves immune system. Some compounds of ginger areshogaols, gingerols and zingerone. The aim of article is to shows the study of different scientists about the effect of ginger in different disease. Gingerol, shogaol suppress the production of pro inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1, TNF-α, and IL-8.Ginger is productive in glycemic control for people with type 2 diabetes. The active ingredients of ginger include gingerols, which exhibit antioxidant activity. Ginger plays an important role in improving the activity of gastrointestinal track. Due to ginger effect, the level of cardiovascular disorders, digestive problems and diabetes mellitus can decrease.

Immunity in insects is the series of events by discretion of signal proteins as a part of memory cells. The most important role of defensive proteins and peptides in insects are against function, assigning immune responses distinctly to priming and basal. But insects are also a source of high quality protein, containing many essential amino acids required for human nutrition. One their host enters into the cells of targeting area, immediate onset of proteolytic cascades that causes the cleavage of protein molecules of the attacking organisms. Immune system of the insects enhances exhibit properties the of production of antibodies and phagocytic cells to clear microbes and damaged cells from an organism. The most different types of immunological responses arise as pathogens enter into the cells of insects and activate the machinery of metabolic pools. The main reason for genetic and biochemical evaluation lie behinds the diversity of natural ecosystem of insects. Sterile insect technique has been controlled for direct killing. It is used primarily to control or eradicate insect pests, usually crop pests or human and animal. Integrated pest management, the broad-based approach that integrates practices for economic control of pests that significantly improved the yields of agricultural crops.

The outbreak of the unconventional coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) on account that December 2019 has created an extraordinary state. Senna is a type of plant in the tropics. Senna, the sienna’s, is a huge variety of blossoming plants in the vegetable family (Fabaceae, subfamily Caesalpinioideae, clan Cassia). As It is a brand new variation of a deadly disease remedy alternatives aren't simplest confined however require painstaking trials to verify theireffectiveness. Due to the lack of information in lots of growing international locations, humans have begun out the usage of herbalmedications, used for numerous different diseases, to fight COVID-19. Misleading data on social mediaregarding “Senna Makki” has gone microorganism in the Asian nation. However, consumption of bush Makki isn't suggested as atreatment possibility for COVID-19 thanks to its several harmful associated side-effects. Though its use in different diseases isevident, trials to verify its effectiveness against COVID-19 got to be prioritized because the public has startedconsuming bush Makki in high doses and while not monitoring prescript.

The chemical compounds extracted from medicinal plants have potential to evoke mental and social sensations in addition to maintain physical health. . Species of Asteraceae and Liliaceae play significant cardiovascular roles irrespective of exploring their toxicological aspects. Carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, nucleotides, fats, and steroids are the primary organic compounds which are involved in metabolism of essential developmental and growth functions of plants. The detrimental effects of environmental stress factors are suppressed by the gene expressions of ion transporters and water channel proteins present in the cell membranes incorporated with the up or downregulation of osmo-proctant osmolytes and essential proteins such as HSP and chaperones. Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is an important crop known for its food, forage, and silage constituents. It is a prominent specie in Asteraceae family. Its seeds are enriched with edible oil-world’s fourth largest oil source. The mineral elements, dietary fibers, and secondary metabolites such as carotenoids, flavonoids, tocopherols, saponins, tannins, alkaloids, chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, peptides, phytosterols, triterpene glycosides, and vitamins contribute towards nutraceutical roles. Pot marigold (Calendula officinalis) possesses antibiotic, anti-inflammatory, and antifungal properties which allow its applications in preventing muscle spasms, treating sore throat and ulcers of duodenum and stomach, soothing eczema, healing wounds, and relieving rashes.

Background: A significant proportion of people infected with COVID-19 report new onset of smell and taste loss. The duration of the chemosensory impairment and prognostic factors of recovery is still unclear. We aimed to investigate the prevalence rate and other signs and symptoms which are predictors in patients. Objective: To find out the association of Anosmia and Ageusia with COVID-19. To find out relationship of Gender with Anosmia and Ageusia in COVID-19 or other URTI. Methods: I was a cross-sectional study, participants were from CMH, Multan, Hospitals of different cities of the province of Punjab, Pakistan. The study was conducted from 1st July to 31st of August 2021. 185. All faculty members and medical Students of CMH Bahawalpur. Results: Out of 185 participants, 99 (53.5%) were male and 86 (46.5%) were female. The mean age was 23.93 ± 6.661years. Pearson correlation of covid-19 with loss of smell is 0.533 which shows that there is strong positive relationship between them. On one-way ANOVA fever sig. is 0.002 which shows high significance. URTI also shows association but other signs and symptoms like dyspnoea, dry cough do not show any significance. Shows the majority of participants are suffering from taste and smell loss (95.1%) along with body aches (82.7%), dyspnoea (94.6%), acute dry cough (36.2%), URTI (19.5%) and fever (36.2%).
