Doctrine of Signature


God makes everything in the earth for human. Among His creations tree is one of the leading. From many century ago, herbalist (A herbalist is a person who dedicated his life to the economic of medicinal uses of plants. He have to well trained in herbalism. Herbalism is a traditional medicinal or folk medicine practice based on the use of plants and plant extracts.) are trying to create some amazing remedy  for human disease from plants. As a result of there invention "Doctrine of Signature" has appeared. Doctrine means knowledge & Signature means sign of nature. It was reasoned that the God must have set his sign upon the various means of curing disease which he provided. That concept is still reflected in the common names of some plants whose shapes and colors reminded hwebalists of the parts of the body where they were thought to do good. The concept of Doctrine of Signature was developed by Paracelsus (Phillip Von Hohenheim,known as Paracelsus,born in Switzerland.) But there is no scientific evidence that plant shapes and colors help in the discovery of medical uses of plants.
