• The Health Square

The medicinal plants are used in phytotherapy. This traditional medicine which used the active principles of some plants raises nowadays a renewed interest in the public.
Plants still have many more secrets to reveal to us; research still isolates regularly new molecules to fight against diseases.

Nearly 200 different medicinal plants are shown in this square: digestives (fennel, liquorice, wild thyme, sage, etc.); respiratory (mullein, thyme, hyssop, elecampane, etc.); vascular (lady’s mantle, butcher’s broom, purple loosestrife, etc.); sedatives (California poppy, violet, goose grass, etc.).
