Abstract
Traditional system of medicine consists of huge number of plants with various medicinal and pharmacological importances and hence represents a priceless thank of latest bioactive molecules. galangal (Linn.) is one of these, found everywhere the planet. it's commonly referred to as ‘Kulanjan’. Different parts of this plant are traditionally claimed to be used for the treatment of anti-fungal, antitumor, anti-diuretic, disease of heart, rheumatic pains, dyspepsia, fever, diabetes etc. Therefore, this review aimed to compile and comprehensive information of galangal with special emphasis on its various scientifically documented pharmacological activities, traditional and folk medicine uses along side its role in biofuel industry. this review will highlight the pharmacological and therapeutic effects of Alpinia galangal. Galangal (Zingiberaceae) is one sort of herbal plant that's widely grown in india. Various countries cultivate this medicinal plant, including India. This medicinal plant features a sort of benefits and even be used as a treatment for several diseases. Although the galangal rhizome is that the most generally used and studied a part of the plant, the flower on the galangal also can provide additional advantages, like antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Therefore, this study aimed to demonstrate galangal for the longer term prospects against SARS-CoV-2. In summary, this study suggests that lengkuas could be useful as a treatment for COVID-19, although further studies might be conducted to verify the results of computational studies.
