Ethnomedicine in Nepal Districts

Kunwar, Ripu M; Nepal, Bal K; Kshhetri, Hari B; Rai, Sanjeev K; Bussmann, Rainer W. "Ethnomedicine in Himalaya: A Case Study From Dolpa, Humla, Julma and Mustang Districs of Nepal". Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine. 2 June 2006. 2:27.

This paper dicusses the importance of plants as medicine. The practice of traditional medicine has not diminished in recent times for this reason the author documents plant species in Dolpa, Humla, Julma and Mustang. This be benificial to my project to help me understand the Tibetan medical practices and also in understanding tradtional medicine as a part of Tibetan culture for my History of medicinal plants class.
