Acesso em:.https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/17936Medicinal plants, whether cultivated or found in nature, contain active compounds that provide therapeutic properties, making them essential resources in traditional medicine and scientific research. This study aimed to highlight the importance of medicinal plant species used in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. A qualitative and descriptive approach was adopted, conducted in two phases: (1) field research, followed by botanical identification of the species, and (2) literature review. The investigation into the traditional use of Libidibia férrea (Jucá), Plectranthus neochilus (Boldo), and Ocimum selloi (Elixir Paregórico) in the Bacuriteua community demonstrated a significant convergence between popular knowledge and established scientific evidence, reinforcing the relevance of these species in therapeutic contexts.ptAcesso AbertoAttribution-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/4.0/Plantas medicinaisSaberes tradicionaisDoênças gastrointestinaisDissertaçãoCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANASETNO-SOCIOBIODIVERSIDADE E SUSTENTABILIDADE AMBIENTALESTUDOS ANTRÓPICOS
