Título: | Traditional medicinal uses of the Eurasian wild grapevine in the Iberian Peninsula |
Autor: | Ocete, C.A.; Ocete, R.F.; Ocete, R.; Lara, M.; Renobales, Gustavo; Valle, J.M.; Rodríguez-Miranda, Álvaro; Morales, Rafael CSIC ORCID | Fecha de publicación: | 2020 | Editor: | CSIC - Real Jardín Botánico (RJB) | Citación: | Anales del Jardin Botanico de Madrid 77 (2020) | Resumen: | The Iberian Peninsula constitutes the Western limit of the dioecious Eurasian wild grapevine (Vitis vinifera L. subsp. sylvestris). At present, it is a threatened plant, due to human impacts. This liana has had different uses in this territory from the Paleolithic until the end of the last century, including several medicinal applications, inherited from the classical Greek culture. In order to retrieve the available written information, we carried out an exhaustive bibliographic search of the pharmacopoeia linked to this Vitaceae, from the 16th century to the present day. Current references on chemical composition of different parts of grapevine and their medicinal uses were also covered. In parallel, we conducted research in several archives and made inquiries to historians, anthropologists, and sanitary personnel. We also interviewed elderly people from rural areas of Spain and Portugal where some relic populations of wild grapevine are still conserved. Among the written and oral medicinal uses compiled, the main ones are: the use of the grapevine bleeding water to alleviate eczema and skin eruptions and to combat conjunctivitis and keratitis; the use of must from unripe berries (agua de agraz in Spanish) as liver tonic and to treat digestive diseases; the leaves were used to reduce edema, as antihemorrhoidal, and for menopausal disorders; and finally, the vinegar was used to clean and disinfect wounds both on humans and animals. This paper highlights the tremendous erosion of the traditional knowledge about this relevant plant genetic resource. | Versión del editor: | http://dx.doi.org/10.3989/AJBM.2555 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/230901 | DOI: | 10.3989/AJBM.2555 | Identificadores: | doi: 10.3989/AJBM.2555 issn: 1988-3196 |
