Plants are the major source of various ingredients which are responsible for the treatment of diseases and complications. They are used from ancient times mentioned in the Ayurveda and various Vedas because herbal medicine and their products are safe, very effective and environmental eco-friendly.

On the other hand, liver is the major vital organ performing major functions in the body like detoxification, biotransformation etc. It synthesizes proteins and produces biochemical’s necessary for digestion and growth. Its other roles in metabolism include the regulation of glycogen storage, decomposition of red blood cells and the production of hormones. In spite of this environment pollutants or toxicants accumulate in the liver and causes ill effects on liver. They change the architecture of hepatocytes and diminished the functions of liver due to this reason metabolism of the body changes. Hence there is urgent need to some liver tonic. Considering all these facts present review article explored the natural hepatoprotectant against chemical toxicity.
