Abstract

The effect of medicinal plants is due to the chemicals contained in them, called active principles. Unlike drugs, which often contain a single chemical in large quantities, herbs contain a mixture of many active ingredients that act synergistically to produce a therapeutic effect. Medicinal plants also contain a wide variety of minerals and vitamins. The articles on medicinal plants did not specify all the chemicals contained by the plants, only those in the largest quantities and with proven therapeutic effect. Each chemical has an effect due to its chemical structure and can act in several directions, which is why there are so many beneficial medical effects attributed to medicinal plants. The review paper presents a specialized theoretical study related to the chemical composition of medicinal plants in Romania. The research results are structured in the form of a theoretical-informative scientific guide, which includes, in addition to the literary and scientific name of medicinal plants, and a description of the main biochemical compounds detected in each species.

Introduction

Among the spontaneous plants, the healing ones have attracted people's attention since the beginning of their existence on Earth. From this beginning until today, the long road of phytotherapy has gone through many stages, creating currents, schools and natural therapeutic systems, specific to geographical areas or ancient cultures and civilizations. Unfortunately, much of the treasure accumulated through tradition or writing has been irretrievably lost. The interest for medicinal organisms has increased with the improvement of the techniques of extraction and processing of active products and especially of the demonstration of their efficiency in the fight against serious human diseases. Today's phytotherapy, aromatherapy and natural therapy acquire new valences compared to the past. In addition, today's methods, therapeutic systems and medicines are increasingly addressing the patient and not the disease; the old conceptions of a holistic therapy that addresses the human body as a whole and not the affected organ are beginning to be updated. Conjugated botanical, biochemical and pharmacological research has materialized with truly remarkable results; many diseases now have a natural remedy, and future research expects new sources of raw materials with superior biological parameters to obtain new drugs.

The research results are structured in the form of a theoreticalinformative scientific guide, which includes, in addition to the literary and scientific name of medicinal plants, and a description of the main biochemical compounds detected in each species.

Discussion and Conclusion

Generalizing the information presented, we consider that the elaboration of such a guide of chemical compounds of medicinal plants is necessary, current and important for the following reasons: in the local literature there is information on the chemical composition of medicinal plants; Another reason that led us to develop this guide is the fact that there are currently many sources of information (websites, popular publications, magazines, newspapers, brochures, etc.), which provide unverified and invalid data from the point of view of scientific view, which could mislead applicants for truthful information. In this order of ideas, we consider welcome the appearance of this specialized theoretical-informative guide, which will be useful to specialists in the field, scientific researchers, pupils and students of specialized institutions, as well as to all those interested in this field.
