Aqueous Extract of Human Placenta as a Therapeutic Agent
نویسندگان
چکیده
Traditional folk medicine makes good use of the flora and fauna of a region, including a number of mineral substances. These herbs and animals are used either whole or in part and made up in either simple or complicated preparations and have proved to be effective therapeutic remedies. Some of these medicinal substances of animal origin have been quite thoroughly studied with modern scientific methods, and their therapeutic properties have been confirmed although not always explained. Many others have yet to be subjected to scientific analysis and tests before their real value can be judged. Products of animal origin despite of their therapeutic values have been banned in many countries for the sake of sustainable development in addition to safeguard ecological balance.
