A total of four mineral elements (Na, K, Mg and Zn) were determined in five medicinally important plants such as Glycyrrhiza glabra (L.), Gymnema sylvestre (R.Br.), Solanum trilobatum (L.), Alpinia Calcarata (Rox.) and Centella asiatica (L.). From the study, it was revealed that all the four elements were accumulated to higher or lower extents by all the five plants species studied. Among the nutrients, Na content varied from 169.02 to 357.26ppm. Glycyrrhiza glabra had the lowest Na content and Solanum trilobatum the highest. The concentration of K ranged from 137.36ppm in Glycyrrhiza glabra to 499.06 in Centella asiatica. Alpinia calcarata had the lowest Mg content (197.25ppm) and Gymnema sylvestre had the highest (571.10ppm). The Zinc content in the studied plants ranged between 13.06 ppm in Alpinia calcarata and 87.12ppm in Gymnema sylvestre.
