10.22376/ijpbs.2019.10.1.p1-12 Volume 6 Issue 3 2015 (July - September) Six Medicinal plants species viz. lessThan i greaterThan Homalomena aromatica, Clerodendrum indicum lessThan /i greaterThan , lessThan i greaterThan Elsholtzia communis, Zanthoxylum alatum, Drymaria cordata and Gnetum gnemon lessThan /i greaterThan of the North Eastern region of India were estimated for their proximate composition and minerals content on dry matter basis. The crude protein content of different plant species in descending order were lessThan i greaterThan Drymaria cordata lessThan /i greaterThan (20.57%) followed by lessThan i greaterThan Homalomena aromatica lessThan /i greaterThan (20.5%), lessThan i greaterThan Elsholtzia communis lessThan /i greaterThan (16.19%), lessThan i greaterThan Zanthoxylum alatum lessThan /i greaterThan (10.94%), lessThan i greaterThan Clerodendrum indicum lessThan /i greaterThan (7.88%) and lessThan i greaterThan Gnetum gnemon lessThan /i greaterThan (6.7%). The crude fat content ranged from 0.31%-1.27% and crude fibre 7.31%-20.0% in different plant species. These plants/herbs were also rich in mineral content. While the Moisture content was highest in lessThan i greaterThan Clerodendrum indicum (15.4%) lessThan /i greaterThan and Carbohydrate content was in lessThan i greaterThan Gnetum gnemon lessThan /i greaterThan (65.61%). Among the trace element constituents iron was found to be the highest (10 to 792ppm) followed by Zinc(0.65-6.72ppm) and Copper(0.01-1ppm). However the percentage of calcium and phosphorus were found to be optimum level in comparison to other conventional plant species. The study revealed the fact that these six wild edible plants species could be used as a nutritional supplement.
