Therefore, the solution to the harmful side effects of synthetic drugs is to use medicinal plants, which are widely available and reasonably priced. The anticancer properties of twenty common medicinal plants found throughout India were compiled in this review. This review also covered the kind of cancer cell that was inhibited, the plant components that had anticancer properties, Anticancer bioactive compounds, and the composition of the extracts utilized in the research. According to reports, the medicinal plants found in 21 India have anticancer properties for the ovary, breast, stomach, pancreas, kidney, skin, colon, esophagus, prostate, cervix, lung, and blood. The main groups including bioactive substances that have been linked to anticancer activity are Alkaloids, tannins, triterpenes, flavonoids, polyphenols, and quinones. Such plant-based substance exhibited major anticancer pharmacological actions, including apoptotic, cytotoxic, cytostatic, antimetastatic, antiproliferative, and antioxidative effects. Moreover, they caused cell cycle arrest, inhibited angiogenesis, additionally decreased viability and of cancer cells. Medicinal plants of India have the potential to yield affordable and easily accessible anticancer medications Later on, as plants included in this analysis demonstrated encouraging antitumor properties.
