A Comprehensive Review on Ethnomedicinal Uses of Fishes in Asia
Abstract: In Asia, fish hold a multifaceted role as crucial dietary and economic resources, cultural symbols, and traditional ethnomedicine remedies. With over 4,000 known freshwater and marine fish species in Asian waters, these aquatic creatures feature prominently in the region's diverse ethnomedical traditions. The continent's numerous ethnic groups, each with unique indigenous medical practices, often rely on traditional ethnomedicine due to limited access to modern allopathic healthcare. The paper delves into …
