Toronto physician Mel Borins, who has travelled extensively to developing countries to examine traditional healing practices, recently visited elders at an Ontario Indian reserve to learn more about native healing practices. He is concerned that much native knowledge about the use of herbs and plants for healing will be lost and steps should be taken to protect it. He is also worried about the possible extinction of useful medicinal plants as civilization encroaches on remote areas.
多伦多医生梅尔·博林斯曾广泛前往发展中国家考察传统治疗方法，最近他拜访了安大略省一个印第安保留地的长者，以了解更多本土治疗方法。他担心许多关于草药和植物用于治疗的本土知识将会失传，应该采取措施加以保护。他还担心随着文明向偏远地区扩张，有用的药用植物可能会灭绝。
