The goal of the current review is to gather information on research updates and claims pertaining to ethno medicine and folklore that is currently accessible. Material and Methods: Information and data regarding reported ethno medicinal uses and folklore claims of the G. superba were searched from ethnomedicinal books and published research articles. Results: G. superba has been identified by 48 different tribes/communities in 2 countries and 8 states of India, and known by 16 names in 8 different languages. It has been used in the management of 36 disease conditions for its traditional folklore therapeutic uses. Additionally, pharmacological studies have reported its anti-arthritis, anti-inflammatory, abortifacient, and oxytocic activities. Conclusion: The claims found in folklore can serve as a basis for future research to support their ethnic origins through pharmacological and clinical studies.
