Madhuca kingiana
Madhuca kingiana, also known as the King's Mahua, is a rare and endangered medicinal plant species native to the tropical forests of India.
It has been used in traditional medicine for centuries, primarily due to its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties, which are attributed to its rich concentration of flavonoids, alkaloids, and saponins.
The plant is used to treat various health conditions, including fever, respiratory issues, and gastrointestinal problems, with its extracts also exhibiting potential anti-cancer and anti-diabetic properties.
Herbal preparations of Madhuca kingiana include its leaves, bark, and seeds, which can be used to make teas, decoctions, and ointments, although further research is needed to fully understand its medicinal potential and optimal usage.
