connectivity with the animal world. Therefore it
can be widely seen that the chemicals released
by plants can be used to treat sick human
beings.
• Natural or herbal medicine are based on
historical or cultural traditions rather than on
scientific evidence. This field of medicine is
different from the conventional allopathic
treatment.5/22/2014 Template copyright www.brainybetty.com 2005 25
26. • Plants defend themselves from a wide variety of
predators such as insects, fungi and
herbivorous mammals by their ability to
synthesize chemical compounds against attack.
By chance, some of these compounds, whilst
being toxic to plant predators, turn out to have
beneficial effects when used to treat human
diseases.

understanding of a particular plant have led to
adverse reactions that are sometimes life
threatening or lethal.
