Abstract : Cancer is now recognized as one of the most common diseases in the world, due to its high mortality rate. Inflammation is our body’s immune system against potentially dangerous stimuli like allergens and/or tissue damage. However, a variety of disorders, including allergies, cardiovascular issues, metabolic syndrome, cancer, and autoimmune diseases are the underlying cause of uncontrollable inflammatory response. Inflammation is directly linked to cancer and plays an important role in the growth and development of tumour. Inflammation and cancer are linked through the extrinsic and intrinsic processes, respectively. Herbals play a very important role in treatment of cancer and inflammation. Several plant derived extracts inhibit and regulate signaling process and network associated with the growth as well as proliferation of cancer cells. It is necessary to invent new strategies to prevent and treat disease. Products obtained from plants are a valuable source for the development of novel medications, due to their diverse chemical composition. So researchers are focusing on various phytoconstituents and how well they may work against various diseases at the moment. The present review is therefore an effort to give the literature study for Mechanism, relation between inflammation and cancer and the list of medicinal plants that possessed anti-inflammatory and anticancer activity.
