A CLUSTER SURVEY ON THE USE OF HERBS IN THE IRAQI SOCIETY | PLANT CELL BIOTECHNOLOGY AND MOLECULAR..

This was the first study of its kind in the Iraqi population, and the findings were compared to those of other countries. From February 28 to April 28, 2019, we gathered data on 190 patients on Iraqi social media. We used a special questionnaire focused on the Iraqi population that asked questions to demonstrate the use of herbal medicine in a sample of Iraqi adult patients suffering from various diseases. This questionnaire included several questions about the patient's gender, age, occupation, marital status, belief in the healing power of plants, and other topics to gather the data we needed for this study.Some of the data was comparable to that of other nations, although others were strikingly similar. A large percentage of patients in Iraqi society believe in the healing power of herbs and are conscious of their applications. The majority of patients in this study used herbal medicines for health promotion because they believe that herbal medicines make them feel better, even though they aren't successful in treating the disease; they treated it as though it were a placebo. Herbal use does not necessarily require a prescription or doctor's recommendation, andsome patients have chosen to use herbs on their own.
