Abstract: Helping the body to help itself by optimizing the immune system is of central importance. The antibiotics will not be effective beyond 2020 as estimated by WHO. A novel alternative to antibiotics is the immuno modulation. Immunomodulation is the ruling of immune responses by stimulating them to prevent transmittable diseases or by suppressing them in the undesired circumstances. The active components in medical plants have always represented an important source of clinical therapeutics since they offer a chemical diversity often associated with a multi-pharmacological activity.

New immunomodulatory plants are important for the discovery of drug with fewer side effects, less costly, more potent and effective treatment developed for immune and their related diseases.
