If you are curious about the useful medicinal plants from nature, wondering what food may be useful to health, and which edible medicinal plants you can grow in your garden, this book is for you! The book is suitable for both the general public as well as healthcare professionals. This book is a compilation of up to date information of carefully curated 30 medicinal plants, many of which are also eaten as food. Information on how to grow and when to harvest is also included. For each plant, information on scientific name, common name, origin, phytoconstituents, medicinal uses, pharmacological activities, clinical trials (if any), dosage (if any), adverse reactions, toxicity, contraindications (who should not use), precautions, drug-herb interactions (if any), uses as food, growth conditions and cultivation (e.g. light, water and soil preferences) and harvesting is collated. Authors' notes are added where appropriate. Gardening enthusiasts and hobbyists may also find inspirations from the carefully curated choices of plants. May we engage in meaningful and enjoyable activities for preventive healthcare, to optimise our health outcomes and take baby steps towards a sustainable and green environment!
