One such plant is\n                    <jats:italic>Bombax ceiba<\/jats:italic>\n                    L., also known as red silk\u2010cotton tree, native to Southeast Asia and the Indian subcontinent. This large deciduous tree holds cultural, economic, and medicinal significance, valued for its fiber and use in traditional medicinal systems. The flowers of\n                    <jats:italic>B. ceiba<\/jats:italic>\n                    are an excellent source of fiber and carbohydrates and contain vitamins (vitamin C) and minerals (iron, sodium, phosphorus, and calcium).

It also contains flavonoids, which have anti\u2010inflammatory, antimicrobial, and other properties, including hepatoprotective, lipid peroxidation, anti\u2010inflammatory, anticancer\/antitumor, anti\u2010ulcer, and antidiabetic properties. The presence of various bioactive compounds like quercetin, kaempferol, gallic acid, catechin, \u03b2\u2010sitosterol, and mangiferin are responsible for these properties. In particular, mangiferin is well known for its antioxidant and anti\u2010inflammatory properties.
