Medicinal plants and herbs from Mexico. These are the plants I am more familiar with. Indigenous people for centuries have been using these remedies. They were very knowledgeable and were able to heal using plants and herbs. Many are used in the foods we eat today. Compared to the Europeans during the last 14th and 15th centuries, the Aztecs and the Maya were by far more advanced with their science and astronomy, agriculture and architecture.

The Avocado is easy to digest. It’s considered a fruit. It is recommended for people that are diabetic. There are several varieties of avocadoes. The one with the black skin is the most popular. You can find it in just about any mercado (market) in Mexico and along the border with the U.S. The skin is eatable and useful for treating those with intestinal worms.
