Abstract

The relevance of traditional healing in genomic science pertain to the use of specific herbal remedies which are therapeutic for the management of endemic diseases in developing and the least developed nations. Besides the therapeutic resources of the healers were discussed and in nature of their therapeutic modality was characterized. The physical, mental and social psychological model of traditional healing was developed. It was recommended that genomics specifically true sequencing could be applied to identify the phytochemical agents which are present in many of the herbs which traditional healers use. Among those herbs, those that are lethal and toxic to patients should be expunged.
