Analysis of the standardization of medicinal teas marketed in Castanhal-PA

Abstract

The World Health Organization (WHO) stipulates that approximately 80% of the population residing in developing nations employs traditional practices as an integral part of their primary health care. This trend can be attributed to several factors, such as the lack of access to conventional health services and the high costs associated with conventional treatments, which motivate the population to seek more affordable therapeutic alternatives. In this scenario, phytotherapy emerges as a relevant practice, anchored in historical and cultural aspects that legitimize the search for traditional forms of care.
