Opis (eng)

A total of 631 informants were surveyed on the knowledge and use of medicinal plants, in the four municipalities of the Pirot District. Betula pendula (silver birch) was mentioned by 11 respondents for the following applications: against urinary tract inflammation, kidney and bladder diseases, gastric bacteria, kidney and bile sand, kidney and urinary tract diseases, prostate disease, proteins in the urine, and for kidney and urinary tract regeneration. The medicinal uses of silver birch leaves against gastric bacteria, as well as the use of the juice from birch tree for kidney and urinary tract regeneration can be considered novelties in our research because they were not mentioned in previously published ethnobotanical papers on the Balkans.
