Abstract
In this Paper, I will discuss the nature of healthcare and biodiversity as it pertains to everyday life. I will discuss DNA barcoding as a complementary tool for conservation and valorization of forest resources. We will look at Medical tree species in a plantation of Bangladesh, as well as the medicinal values, increment density and frequency of these species in Bangladesh. This paper is a global look at the biodiversity in healthcare V. pharmaceuticals, and DNA barcoding. The “core barcode” for land plants was tested on 68 tree specimens. Since the pre-historic era, humans have been using forest as food, drugs, and handcraft reservoir. Today, the use of botanical raw material to produce pharmaceuticals, herbal remedies, teas, spirits, cosmetics, sweets, dietary supplements, special industrial compounds and crude materials constitute an important global resource in terms of healthcare and economy. In recent years, DNA barcoding has been suggested as a useful molecular technique to complement traditional taxonomic expertise for fast species identification and biodiversity inventories. In this paper, application of DNA barcodes will be discussed as well as assessments of the biodiversity in healthcare.
Highlights
Empirical evidence will show how plants, trees, and species played a large role in ancient medical traditions and how we still practice them at home today, and play a vital role in providing healthcare as western medicines do

Summary
Empirical evidence will show how plants, trees, and species played a large role in ancient medical traditions and how we still practice them at home today, and play a vital role in providing healthcare as western medicines do. Many examples suggest that exploring traditional pharmacopoeia is a productive way to again identify leads, such as Physostigma venenosum, Strophantus spp., Camptotheca acuminate, Huperzia serrate, Carapichea ipecacuanha and Artemisia annua. As the demand for botanical products is increasing and most of the new products are harvested from the wild, questions of biodiversity and sustainability become very important. Are three examples of prominent medicinal plants; (Taxus brevifolia, Rauvvolfia spp, and Prunus africana), reveal both the difficulties involved, and the biological and social implications, of drug recovery. Further studies of preserving biodiversity as possible solutions to these problems are implemented in the community health as well
