Abstract

Background: Medicinal plants have curative properties due to the presence of various complex chemical substances of different compositions, which are found as secondary plant metabolites in one or more parts of the plants. Moringa oleifera from Moringaceae and Beta vulgaris root are, native to India, grows in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world. It is commonly known as 'drumstick tree' or 'horseradish tree' or 'miracle tree’. Incorporation of more herbal powder leads to much complexity. Above plants were chosen for their utmost nutritional values. 

Result: Herbal tablet and granules were prepared and evaluated further for various Physico-chemical parameters as a nutritional supplement. Promising results indicate that prepared formulations have potential as supplements. 

Conclusion: Present communication mainly focused on estimation of marker components by Reverse Phase-High Performance Liquid Chromatography. It showed the presence of enough number of secondary metabolites and minerals which can be easily consumed by all age groups.
