Beskrivelse
Threatened, the people of South America are trying, today, to survive and protect their culture, plant care being an integral part of this struggle. The deforestation of tropical forests leads to the disappearance of thousands of plant species, some of which could have served as remedies. South American herbal medicine is made up of shamanic rituals and numerous plants, but not yet fully documented, protected by the density of the tropical rainforest. However, these are only two facets of the herbalist tradition of the Amazon and Orinoco regions. In other regions - the Andean plateau of Bolivia, the humid plains of Paraguay and large cities, such as Rio de Janeiro - the reality is very different.
