(Nymphaeaceae) is a potential aquatic crop grown and consumed throughout Asia. All parts of\n                    <jats:italic>N. nucifera<\/jats:italic>\n                    have been used for various medicinal purposes in various systems of medicine including folk medicines, Ayurveda, Chinese traditional medicine, and oriental medicine. Many chemical constituents have been isolated till the date. However, the bioactive constituents of lotus are mainly alkaloids and flavonoids. Traditionally, the whole plant of lotus was used as astringent, emollient, and diuretic. It was used in the treatment of diarrhea, tissue inflammation, and homeostasis. The rhizome extract was used as antidiabetic and anti-inflammatory properties due to the presence of asteroidal triterpenoid. Leaves were used as an effective drug for hematemesis, epistaxis, hemoptysis, hematuria, and metrorrhagia. Flowers were used to treat diarrhea, cholera, fever, and hyperdipsia. In traditional medicine practice, seeds are used in the treatment of tissue inflammation, cancer and skin diseases, leprosy, and poison antidote. Embryo of lotus seeds is used in traditional Chinese medicine as Lian Zi Xin, which primarily helps to overcome nervous disorders, insomnia, and cardiovascular diseases (hypertension and arrhythmia). Nutritional value of lotus is as important as pharmaceutical value. These days\u2019 different parts of lotus have been consumed as functional foods. Thus, lotus can be regarded as a potential nutraceutical source.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2015\/789124","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,12,30]],"date-time":"2015-12-30T16:02:06Z","timestamp":1451491326000},"page":"1-16","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":166,"title":["Phytochemical Profile and Biological Activity of\n                    <i>Nelumbo nucifera<\/i>"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2015","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3591-2080","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Keshav Raj","family":"Paudel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacy, School of Health and Allied Science, Pokhara University, P.O.
