Tyrolean medicinal herbs. The power of nature

Many centuries ago, medicinal herbs formed the basis of naturopathy and health in monasteries and are no longer underestimated by scientific medicine. While not enough was known about the effects of herbs back then, herbal medicine has now been thoroughly researched. Around 500 medicinal herbs and plants are now used to make natural medicines, which are increasingly found in our medicine cabinets.

It is not always necessary to buy herbs from a health food store or pharmacy. If you are out and about in nature and keep your eyes open, with a little knowledge you will soon recognize a wide variety of Tyrolean medicinal herbs. We distinguish between medicinal plants, wild herbs, edible flowers and leafy salads.

Every year we present you with the medicinal plant of the year, which is always determined by the natural healing association Theophrastus.
