Biodiversity and human health

Human health depends on the goods and services provided by ecosystems.

The Earth's biodiversity makes it possible to achieve medical and pharmacological discoveries of great importance. The absence of this biodiversity can limit treatments for various diseases.

Climate change, biodiversity and health

Climate is an integral part of the functioning of ecosystems; human and animal health is directly and indirectly affected by climatic variations, thus significantly reducing the availability of food and water resources, initiating the appearance of pests and promoting the migration of populations.

Diversity of genetic resources

There are 128 domesticated native plant species in the country, some of which are of great economic importance.

Potatoes are the third most important food crop in the world in terms of human consumption after rice and wheat. In the world, there are more than 4,000 varieties of native potatoes, most of which are found in the Andes.

We can also mention maca, a root that grows above 4000 m.a.s.l.; more than a dozen varieties have been described, but the most studied are black and red, each with specific health benefits. For example: black maca has a high incidence at the cerebral level, improving memory, reducing fatigue or stress and showing good results on spermatogenesis, while red maca reverses benign prostatic hyperplasia and osteoporosis, among other benefits.
