Abstract
Lasoda, also known as Sleshamatak (Cordia dichotoma), is a plant that is at the crossroads of contemporary science and Ayurvedic tradition. Cordia dichotoma is a member of the biggest genus in the Boraginaceae family, Cordia, with over 300 species recognised worldwide. This plant, also known as Shleshmatak, Shelu, Clammy Cherry, Indian Cherry, and Sebesten, is rich in medicinal qualities and contains a wide range of chemical elements, such as flavonoids, β-sitosterol, pyrrolizidine alkaloids, cathartin, and allantoin. Lasoda is highly regarded in Ayurvedic writings as a snehopaga, a one-stop cure for a variety of gastrointestinal issues. Beyond its customary uses, Cordia dichotoma has played a significant role in traditional medicine by providing remedies for ailments including ulcerative colitis, diabetes, wound healing, hepatoprotection, antibacterial activity, antiinflammatory characteristics, and anthelmintic qualities. The botanical description,chemical makeup, and variety of uses of Cordia dichotoma are succinctly summarised in this review, which also positions the plant as a prospective contender in the traditional and pharmaceutical domains, indicating its broad range of medicinal applications.
