The ethnomedicine continued in monasteries by monks who used cultivated medicinal plants and wild harvested plants. There are now over 800 species of medicinal plants in Romania. An earlier work last century entitled “Pharmaceutical Botany: the Culture and Harvest of Pharmaceutical Plants” by Grinţescu refers to approximately 500 Romanian healing plants, although most of them are not recognized in modern medicine. There is clear evidence of ethnomedicine in this important region, particularly those that are endangered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides an understanding of indigenous plant-derived natural medicines of Romania\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscusses selected plant families that are representative members of the most important medicinal plants in the region\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes discussions and critical views on the potential and challenges for further development of the selected plants in a modern setting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetails the important plants and organizes the chapters based on either taxonomy or medical use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers traditional and folk medicine of Romania\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56517606605174,"sku":"9781032219035","price":91.57,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_37535066.jpg?v=1762134071","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781032219035-natural-products-and-medicinal-properti","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
