CURRENT STUDIES ON MEDICINAL PLANTS-I

It is known that medicinal and aromatic plants have been used for health, food and dye purposes since the early ages of humanity. Despite the drugs and treatment methods developed by modern medicine, treatment with medicinal plants still maintains its importance. Medicinal plants, which were used by people living in rural areas in the past, are seen to be used by people living in all walks of life today. Medicinal and aromatic plants have a crucial place in helping people live a healthier life. A significant portion of the medicinal and aromatic plants traded in Türkiye are collected from nature, and very few medicinal plants are cultivated. For this reason, it is important to share new information by conducting studies on these plants.
