Duke's Handbook of Medicinal Plants of Latin America (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The greatest diversity of plants in the world occurs in tropical Latin America, which is home to nearly 100,000 of the world's 300,000 known species. Despite this diversity, Latin American flora remains the least investigated. Providing complete coverage of nearly 500 of the most promising Latin American medicinal leads, this comprehensive guide addresses their safety, efficacy, and suitability. After a brief introduction, each entry contains scientific and colloquial names, synonyms, illustrations, notes, biological activities, medicinal indications, dosages, potential hazards, extracts, and references.
