Constituents of Medicinal Plants
An Electronic Book


Constituents of Medicinal Plants is a 914 page electronic book in Adobe Acrobat (PDF) format. This definitive herbal reference covers over 3000 constituents of medicinal plants with definitions for about one third of these constituents. In tens of thousands of cases, these constituents have quantitative data included.

ť Chamomile makes a soothing tea. Did you know that the blue oil in chamomile is azulene, an active anti-inflammatory? Did you know that azulene is also found in peppermint, valerian, and yarrow? Azulene is also found in cubeb, elecampane, and patchouli.

ť Phytomedicine is now becoming recognized as a science. This information on the constituents of the medicinal plants clarifies the uses of these plants. As more phytochemicals are being discovered and tested, traditional uses of the medicinal plants are being verified. This provides a theoretical background for empirical knowledge.

ť Constituents of Medicinal Plants does more than just list constituents for each plant. There are almost one thousand definitions of these plant chemicals. Examples and therapeutic actions are given. Most valuable and unique are the listings of plants containing these constituents.

ť Increase your understanding of medicinal plant chemicals and enjoy the broad scope of information gathered together into one concise electronic volume.

ť This book has a companion volume called the Medicinal Plant Constituents. This companion volume lists over 700 medicinal plants followed by their phytochemical constituents.

ť In this electronic book, you may use the find feature (an icon like binoculars) to quickly go to any word or phrase.
