| Sumario: | During the past decade, traditional systems of medicine have become a topic of
global importance. Current estimates suggest that, in many developing countries,
a large proportion of the population relies heavily on traditional practitioners
and medicinal plants to meet primary health care needs. Although
modern medicine may be available in these countries, herbal medicines
(phytomedicines) have often maintained popularity for historical and cultural
reasons. Concurrently, many people in developed countries have begun to turn
to alternative or complementary therapies, including medicinal herbs. |
