TROPICAL RAINFOREST PLANTS

THE BUSH DOCTOR'S PHARMACY®
Natural pharmacy

Suriname's traditional medicine is many centuries old and based on the knowledge of the indigenous people of the Amazon rainforest, the Amerindians and Maroons and on that of the Asian immigrants.
So it is rooted in Amazon - and Asian traditional medicine.
In Suriname's traditional medicine there are about a thousand (1,000) plants and herbs used to cure everything, from hepatitis to rash.
The most important of these plants can be found at the Compiled Medicinal Plant List.
For your reference we have compiled a database in which you will find information about the plants and herbs we sell, as well the applications in Suriname's traditional medicine.
