Traditional remedies are part of the cultured and religious life in
Palestine. In this project, herbal products used in folk medicine were
investigated and recorded. A total of one hundred and eighty four different
plant species were in use. Among these medicinal plants twenty one were
used for their hypoglycemic effects, eleven were used for their hypotensive
effects and forty were used for their diuretic effects. Reservation of
endangered medicinal plant species as well as clinical investigation of these
plants is required.
