Abstract
Cancer is still one of the most serious global health crises, affecting millions of people each year. Many plants have bioactive compounds that may be able to fight cancer, making them valuable sources for developing new drugs and complementary therapies. A variety of anticancer plants contain phytochemical components that have been associated to anticancer activities. Many plant species have compounds with anti-cancer properties, making them crucial sources for the development of cancer therapies. The natural habitats of these anticancer plants have been destroyed due to their extensive use in anticancer treatment, so these plants are in danger of going extinct. The habitat loss brought on by environmental have led to the endangered status of many anticancer plants globally. The destruction of their ecosystems and the unsustainable exploitation of these anticancer plants pose a significant risk. This chapter provides a complete conservation strategy for plants that are anti-cancer to ensure their continued use as medicines.
