Characteristics of the Almond (Amygdalus L.)

Abstract

With each passing year, information about the medicinal properties of medicinal plants is expanding. The deeper our knowledge becomes about the healing properties of medicinal plants, the more stringent and critical we are about their indications and contraindications. Despite significant achievements in modern pharmacology and phytotherapy, the chemico-pharmacological properties of many fruits, vegetables, and edible plants remain unstudied. Therefore, in some cases, the characterization of their healing properties is based solely on the experience of ancient physicians.
