Abstract
The article provides information about the ethnopharmacological and nutritional properties of some plants of the Asteraceae family, common in Azerbaijan and widely used in folk medicine. Although ethnic knowledge is passed down from generation to generation, some information is forgotten if not documented. Therefore, we set ourselves the goal of studying plants of the Asteraceae family, as well as their use in ethnopharmacology. The organs and phases of plants used as medicines have been clarified, and their nutritional value has been determined. It has been established that members of the family are eaten both raw and cooked. Medicinal value varies. Species of the Asteraceae family are mainly used for diabetes, infectious diseases, and also as an expectorant, choleretic, and anticancer agent.
