Abstract

The growing interest in complementary and alternative therapies in recent years can be linked to the growing popularity of herbal medications for boosting immunity. This review aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the scientific perspectives on herbal immune boosters, outlining their possible benefits, disadvantages, and prospects for the future. We examine the literature on various herbs, including ginseng, ashwagandha, turmeric, and echinacea, in strengthening the immune system and reducing the risk of illness. Although these herbs exhibit immense potential, literature review shows that the available data is frequently unreliable and limited by methodological issues. Further investigation is necessary to fully understand how these herbs affect human immunity as well as to ascertain their efficacy and safety. The scientific basis of herbal immune boosters is well explained in this article, which is a great tool for researchers, medical professionals, and anybody else interested in learning more.
