Plantas Medicinales en el Parque Nacional los alerces, Chubut, Patagonia Argentina

Abstract

El objetivo de este estudio fue identificar las plantas con valor medicinal empleadas por los antiguos pobladores del Parque Nacional Los Alerces y relacionarlas con la riqueza específica de plantas medicinales presentes en el área. Se entrevistaron 16 pobladores asentados en la Reserva Nacional que tenían conocimiento de las plantas medicinales, más allá de que hicieran uso o no de las mismas. Las entrevistas fueron semiestructuradas, completadas de manera escrita e individual por el entrevistador. Las mismas incluían diez preguntas que recopilaban información respecto a las especies usadas como medicina, modo de preparación y aplicación, frecuencia de uso, localización de las plantas en el ámbito del área protegida, forma de obtención de las especies, y el modo de adquisición de los conocimientos respecto a las plantas. Los pobladores mencionaron el uso de 42 especies con valor medicinal, distribuidas en 24 familias, de las cuales las mejor representadas fueron Lamiaceae (21,4%) y Asteraceae (14,2%). En cuanto al origen de las plantas medicinales citadas por los pobladores, el 58, 5% correspondió a especies exóticas. Los usos más frecuentes fueron para trastornos del sistema digestivo, seguido en orden decreciente y en menor proporción para tratar afecciones respiratorias, cardiovasculares y de la piel. Al comparar la riqueza total de especies medicinales presentes en el Parque y las registradas a partir de las entrevistas, se observa que se hace uso de un 28,6% de lo disponible en el área

The aim of this study was to identify the medicinal plants used by the old residents in The Alerces National Park and to relate this information with medicinal species richness in the area. An interview was employed with 16 local people settled in the National Reserve who had knowledge of medicinal plants, past or not to make use of them. The interviews were semi-structured, in writing and completed individually by the interviewer. They included ten questions that gathered information regarding the use of medicinal plants, methods of preparation and implementation, frequency of use, location of plants in the field of protected area, ways to collect or collection of species and the mode of acquisition of such knowledge. Residents mentioned the use of 42 species of medicinal value, distributed in 24 families, of which the best represented were Lamiaceae (21.4%) and Asteraceae (14.2%). The 58, 5% of medicinal plants cited by the settlers were alien species. The most frequent uses were for digestive disorders, decreasingly followed by respiratory, cardiovascular and skin diseases. By comparing the total wealth of medicinal species in the Park and those recorded from the interviews, the study shows that local people only uses 28.6% of what is available in the area.
