Therapeutic properties of bamboo have been known since ancient times as a part of several traditional systems of medicine and folk remedies in different parts of the world. Bamboo contains several active phytochemicals and minerals known for antioxidative and cardioprotective properties. This book is a comprehensive guide on botanical, ethnomedicinal, and pharmacological aspects of several medicinally active bamboo species. Exploring Medicinal Bamboos focuses on phytochemically active ingredients of bamboos imparting therapeutic potentials to each species. There are dedicated chapters on species such as Bambusa spp., Lophatherum gracile, Sasa senanensis, Melocanna baccifera, and Phyllostachys spp., providing a deep understanding of the medicinal potential of these plants. The book also expands knowledge on bamboos as medicinally active plants, including their distribution, propagation, and utilization. A volume in the Exploring Medicinal Plants series, this book is useful to academicians, researchers, and students involved with non-timber forest products, bamboo, and medicinal plants. Additionally, botanists, ecologists, phytochemists, and professionals in herbal drug and nutraceutical formulations will find the topics valuable.
