Abstract

Arsenic is a pervasive environmental toxicant found in soils, sediments, and water bodies, presenting potential risks through chronic exposure. Specific Therapy Clinical manifestations and a decrease in arsenic accumulation in the body are only possible by specific therapy such as chelation therapy. The growing popularity of alternative herbal remedies can be attributed to their perceived lesser side effects compared to conventional medicines. In recent years, there has been a notable increase in the documentation of traditional knowledge worldwide, employing both qualitative and quantitative methods. This research focuses on establishing associations between plants and humans, providing evidence for the efficacy of herbal medicines.
