Ethnobotanical profile of medicinal plants used by people of North-eastern Morocco:Cross-cultural and Historical approach (Part I)
Descripción general
Resumen del artículo
This study documented the traditional medicinal uses of 283 plant species from 80 families in northeastern Morocco. Leaves were the most commonly used plant part and decoction was the most frequent preparation method. The study also found a high degree of agreement among informants on the uses of plants for digestive problems and a strong historical connection to the documented uses described in Ibn Al Baytar's 13th-century compendium.
