Postgraduate in Medicinal Plants and Phytotherapy (multi-professional course/specialization level)
INTRODUCTION
The World Health Organization (WHO) and the Brazilian Ministry of Health have recommended the inclusion of Phytotherapy in official health systems for decades. This therapeutic approach is much sought after by the Brazilian population, has scientific evidence and has low rates of side effects. Brazil has the largest biological diversity in the world, including numerous medicinal plants, which makes us a privileged place for the practice of phytotherapy. The productive chain and the use of medicinal plants are multi-professional by nature, because it starts with the correct identification of medicinal plants, then goes through the cultivation and processing, through the production of phytotherapeutics, the proper prescription and finally through guiding the population and developing diverse educational and therapeutic projects. The landscaper has a valuable role in this chain but is not always confident to act in it, for lack of information. Do you want to safely explore the medicinal extent of gardens?
