2^nd Traditional Medicine and Plant Science

Medicinal Plants and Ayurveda

Since prehistoric times, therapeutic plants, often known as medicinal herbs, have been identified and employed in traditional medicine practises. Plants synthesise hundreds of chemical compounds for defence against insects, fungi, illnesses, and herbivorous mammals, among other things. Numerous phytochemicals have been found as having biological activity, either potential or established. The consequences of taking a complete plant as medication, however, are unknown because a single plant has a vast range of phytochemicals. Furthermore, many therapeutic plants' phytochemical content and pharmacological effects, if any, remain unknown due to a lack of rigorous scientific investigation to determine efficacy and safety.
