Resumo: The discovery and management of natural resources are essential in the social development process. For thousand years, humanity has been using plants for the most diverse purposes, such as the relief and cure of illnesses. The Brazilian floristic diversity also enabled native communities to acquire and to develop knowledge associated with the usage of numerous plants. This brief literature review aims to survey the properties of four plant species – guarana (Paullinia cupana Kunth), marapuama (Ptychopetalum olacoides Benth.), gentian (Gentiana lutea L.), quassia (Quassia amara L.) – widely used by natives of the Amazon region, especially due to their therapeutic properties. Finally, it is possible to highlight the existence of great potential for furthering research on the revised plant species, especially regard to herbal medicine usage – once these have shown, according to consulted sources, to assist in the most diverse health conditions.

Durante miles de años, la humanidad ha estado utilizando plantas para los propósitos más diversos, como el alivio y la cura de enfermedades. La diversidad florística brasileña también hizo posible que las comunidades nativas adquirieran y desarrollaran conocimientos asociados al uso de numerosas plantas. Esta breve revisión de la literatura tiene como objetivo estudiar las propiedades de cuatro especies de plantas: guaraná (Paullinia cupana Kunth), muira puama (Ptychopetalum olacoides Benth.), genciana (Gentiana lutea L.), quassia (Quassia amara L.), ampliamente utilizada por los nativos de la región amazónica, especialmente por sus propiedades terapéuticas. Finalmente, es posible destacar la existencia de un gran potencial para avanzar en la investigación sobre las especies de plantas revisadas, especialmente en lo que respecta al uso de medicamentos a base de hierbas, una vez que estos han demostrado, según las fuentes consultadas, ayudar en las más diversas condiciones de salud.A descoberta e o manejo de recursos naturais são essenciais no processo de desenvolvimento social. Por milhares de anos, a humanidade tem se utilizado de plantas com os mais diversos intuitos, como, por exemplo, para o alívio e a cura de enfermidades. A diversidade florística brasileira também possibilitou que as comunidades nativas adquirissem e desenvolvessem conhecimentos associados ao uso de inúmeros vegetais. Esta breve revisão da literatura tem por objetivo fazer um levantamento das propriedades de quatro espécies vegetais – guaraná (Paullinia cupana Kunth), marapuama (Ptychopetalum olacoides Benth.), genciana (Gentiana lutea L.), quassia (Quassia amara L.) – amplamente utilizadas pelos nativos da região amazônica, especialmente devido as suas propriedades terapêuticas. Destaca-se, por fim, a existência de grande potencial para o aprofundamento de pesquisas nas espécies vegetais revisadas, principalmente no que se refere ao uso fitoterápico – uma vez que essas tem mostrado, de acordo com fontes consultadas, auxiliar nos mais diversos quadros de saúde.Research, Society and Development2022-01-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2459210.33448/rsd-v11i2.24592Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 No. 2; e21711224592Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 Núm. 2; e21711224592Research, Society and Development; v. 11 n. 2; e217112245922525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/24592/22481Copyright (c) 2022 Fernando Augusto Morgado Ferreira; Bárbara Bragança Ferreira; Vitor Augusto Nascimento Bragança; Consuelo Lúcia Sousa de Lima; Davi do Socorro Barros Brasil https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFerreira, Fernando Augusto MorgadoFerreira, Bárbara BragançaBragança, Vitor Augusto Nascimento Lima, Consuelo Lúcia Sousa deBrasil , Davi do Socorro Barros 2022-02-07T01:42:50Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/24592Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:43:05.617348Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
