Pulsatilla Vulgaris
2020
During my stay in November 2020, I followed my proposal of studying the emergent behavior of the Island ecosystem in order to create a botanic study (mainly by drawing) of its FLORA. I focused on completing a study of the Pulsatilla vulgaris (known as the “Pasque flower”or “Windy flower”) and it ́s medicinal application for heat-clearing, blood-cooling, heat-clearing and detoxification, and nasal hemorrhage; This specific plant has antitumor, antibacterial, antiinflammatory, immune enhancing, and antitrichomonal effects, but also induces apoptosis and inhibits tumor growth of human colon cancer cells. Modified Pulsatilla powder is used in the treatment of enterotoxigenics coli Bacteria.
