Abstract
Medical plants and Galenic Preparations in medical practice: importance
and validity of traditional fito-therapeutic remedies
In the author’s opinion (medical doctor and psycho-therapist, expert in
natural therapies) that Galenic Preparations based on medical plants are -
as in the opinion of WHO - effective pharmaceutical preparations, still
valid today but unfortunately forgotten or underestimated by western
medical doctors or doctors educated in the universities of western
countries. He invites, then, all medical doctors, to rediscover those
simple but effective preparations. Furthermore, he fervently hopes that
western medical science will greet and integrate the knowledge and the
techniques of traditional medical systems (Ayurveda, Chinese, Tibetan…) in
its medical system, and in general he hopes for a true acknowledgment of
those millenary medical systems. He is convinced that they have still a
lot of secrets to reveal and could help western medicine to come back on
the right track it has lost, that is to say by putting the human being in
the center of his or her spiritual, mental and physical parts. Only a
medical approach which focuses on the human being can heal people:
otherwise, it will just heal single symptoms and sicknesses, but it will
not really heal. |
