Resumo: This article aims to critically discuss sociocultural aspects that influence the practice of phytotherapy in contemporary Brazil, employing Paulo Freire’s theory of antidialogical action. The evocative autoethnography methodology was used. Two constructed narratives intertwine with the four components of the antidialogical action – conquest, divide and rule, manipulation and cultural invasion –creating a dialogue between theory and practice as a decolonial problem-posing perspective is outlined. The reasons for the diminished role of phytotherapy in the official healthcare system, despite its immense potential for the country, are unveiled.  In conclusion, it is imperative for a critical praxis that values Brazilian Traditional Medicine to be widespread in teaching, research and healthcare services. A limit-situation is thus denounced, containing in itself the seed of the untested feasibility to be built: a broad, ecological and socially fairer health project.

Para isso, empregou-se a Autoetnografia Evocativa. Duas narrativas produzidas se entrecruzam com os quatro componentes da ação antidialógica – conquista, dividir para manter a opressão, manipulação e invasão cultural –, criando diálogo entre teoria e prática à medida que se desenha uma problematização com perspectiva decolonial. São desveladas razões para a baixa expressividade da fitoterapia no sistema oficial de saúde apesar do seu imenso potencial para o país. Conclui-se que é necessário que uma práxis crítica baseada na valorização da Medicina Tradicional Brasileira se capilarize no ensino, na pesquisa e nos serviços em saúde. Assim, denuncia-se uma situação-limite, que contém em si a semente do inédito-viável a ser construído: um projeto de saúde amplo, ecológico e socialmente mais justo.Sociedade de Estudos e Pesquisas Qualitativos - SE&PQ2023-10-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://editora.sepq.org.br/rpq/article/view/59710.33361/RPQ.2023.v.11.n.28.597Qualitative Research Journal ; Vol. 11 No. 28 (2023): Setembro/Dezembro: Publicação Contínua; 825-855Revista Pesquisa Qualitativa; v. 11 n. 28 (2023): Setembro/Dezembro: Publicação Contínua; 825-8552525-82221809-025710.33361/RPQ.v.11.n.28reponame:Revista Pesquisa Qualitativa (Online)instname:Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos e Pesquisa Qualitativos (SE&PQ)instacron:SE&PQporenghttps://editora.sepq.org.br/rpq/article/view/597/389https://editora.sepq.org.br/rpq/article/view/597/390Copyright (c) 2023 Revista Pesquisa Qualitativahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCimbleris-Alkmim, AnaMendonça, Simone de Araújo MedinaRamalho-de-Oliveira, Djenane2023-10-16T18:29:25Zoai:editora.sepq.org.br:article/597Revistahttps://editora.sepq.org.br/index.php/rpq/indexONGhttps://editora.sepq.org.br/index.php/rpq/oai||revista.rpq@gmail.com2525-82221809-0257opendoar:2023-10-16T18:29:25Revista Pesquisa Qualitativa (Online) - Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos e Pesquisa Qualitativos (SE&PQ)false
