Table 9: Different manufactures marketing _Withania_-based formulations in food sector. derived from _W. Sommeria_ inhibit the growth of phytopathogenic fungi. The literature reveals that anti-anxiety properties are mainly because of glycowithanolides and glycosides. Value-added products from _Withania_ spp. include capsules, herbal tea, syrups, powder, root powder, root extract, strips, juice, tablets, oil, tonic, decoction, poultice, herbal beer, traditional drugs, and health drinks. Furthermore, there should be assessments on the quantitative improvement and exploration of its value in commercial sectors and herbal sectors. Thus, this medicinal plant is a good target for future studies in the fields of phytomedicines, drug development, and herbal sectors. In a nutshell, in vivo and in vitro research should be conducted to determine the modes of action and molecular mechanism of phytochemicals for drug development and design. Phytochemicals exhibiting antiviral activity will also be potential candidates for developing antiviral medicines against COVID-19. However, more clinical trials should be conducted to prove its therapeutic and pharmacological properties. In this review, we have compiled the detailed biochemical profiling of phytochemicals _W. Sommeria_, their extraction, and its value-added products and therapeutic and pharmacological properties.
