With a distinct tradition and language, this region of Europe provides an important example demonstrating the changing role of local and traditional knowledge in industrial countries. As other Mediterranean regions it preserves a rich heritage of using plants as medicine and food, offering a unique opportunity for studying the medicine food interface in an ethnopharmacological context. Therefore, the key goal of this study has been to contribute to an understanding of local and traditional plant usage, to evaluate their uses as food and medicine as well as to critically assess the role of these plants in the south of the Basque Country contributing to an understanding of how foods and medicines are used.</p></sec><sec><title>Methods</title><p>A mixed methods approach, including participant observation; open and semi structured interviews was used. Ethnobotanical field work included 183 people, ages ranged from 24 to 98 years old with a majority being between 70 and 80 years old (mean age 71) from 31 towns of three different regions. The basic interview was a one-to-one meeting, which often included field walking and collection of samples as directed by the informants. 700 voucher specimens (most of them with duplicates) were collected for the data obtained.</p><p>Using SPSS version 20 the gathered information was processed and the replies of the different informants were subsequently organised in variables like medicine and food plants, part of the plants used, forms of preparations, zones preferred for collecting these plants. The data were analysed based on the frequency of records. This type of approach allows us to understand the way the informant’s categorize the species, and how these categories are distributed along the sample. In order to analyse the data three main categories of use were distinguished: Medicine (M), Food (F) and an intermediate Health-Food (H-F). The three categories were divided in 27 subcategories (common uses).</p></sec><sec><title>Results and discussion</title><p>The informants recognise and use a total of 184 species from 49 families. During interviews, 5658 individual use-reports were collected relating to three use-categories – as medicines, food and health-food. The two main groups with almost the same number of species each are health-food (75 species) and (locally gathered) food only (73), with medicinal uses only (36) being the smallest group. This highlights the important overlap between food and medicines.</p><p>Overall, three core families were identified (based on the number of use reports and in the number of species): Asteraceae (25 species), Lamiaceae and Rosaceae (24 each). The most frequently reported species are <italic>Jasonia glutinosa</italic>, <italic>Chamaemelum nobile, Prunus spinosa</italic> and <italic>Quercus ilex</italic> subsp. <italic>ballota.</italic></p><p>The most important general use-subcategories are as raw vegetables (27.43% of the use-reports and including 81 species), infusions (14.74%/42) and gastrointestinal (12.53%/42). Conceptually foods and medicines are clearly distinguished but the intermediate group of health foods is more ambiguous.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Food and medicinal uses of plants are culturally closely linked. A wide range of plants are known and many still used. The analysis shows that the Basques use a wide range of species which are typical for Western European cultures. In comparison to other studies in the Mediterranean countries there are many similarities in the uses of different families, species of plants and their use and preparations. Some of these plants are key Mediterranean species, often used for a multitude of uses as food and medicine.</p></sec></div></front><back><div1 type="bibliography"><listBibl><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct><analytic><author><name sortKey="Akerreta, S" uniqKey="Akerreta S">S.

With a distinct tradition and language, this region of Europe provides an important example demonstrating the changing role of local and traditional knowledge in industrial countries. As other Mediterranean regions it preserves a rich heritage of using plants as medicine and food, offering a unique opportunity for studying the medicine food interface in an ethnopharmacological context. Therefore, the key goal of this study has been to contribute to an understanding of local and traditional plant usage, to evaluate their uses as food and medicine as well as to critically assess the role of these plants in the south of the Basque Country contributing to an understanding of how foods and medicines are used.</p></sec><sec><title>Methods</title><p>A mixed methods approach, including participant observation; open and semi structured interviews was used. Ethnobotanical field work included 183 people, ages ranged from 24 to 98 years old with a majority being between 70 and 80 years old (mean age 71) from 31 towns of three different regions. The basic interview was a one-to-one meeting, which often included field walking and collection of samples as directed by the informants. 700 voucher specimens (most of them with duplicates) were collected for the data obtained.</p><p>Using SPSS version 20 the gathered information was processed and the replies of the different informants were subsequently organised in variables like medicine and food plants, part of the plants used, forms of preparations, zones preferred for collecting these plants. The data were analysed based on the frequency of records. This type of approach allows us to understand the way the informant’s categorize the species, and how these categories are distributed along the sample. In order to analyse the data three main categories of use were distinguished: Medicine (M), Food (F) and an intermediate Health-Food (H-F). The three categories were divided in 27 subcategories (common uses).</p></sec><sec><title>Results and discussion</title><p>The informants recognise and use a total of 184 species from 49 families. During interviews, 5658 individual use-reports were collected relating to three use-categories – as medicines, food and health-food. The two main groups with almost the same number of species each are health-food (75 species) and (locally gathered) food only (73), with medicinal uses only (36) being the smallest group. This highlights the important overlap between food and medicines.</p><p>Overall, three core families were identified (based on the number of use reports and in the number of species): Asteraceae (25 species), Lamiaceae and Rosaceae (24 each). The most frequently reported species are <italic>Jasonia glutinosa</italic>, <italic>Chamaemelum nobile, Prunus spinosa</italic> and <italic>Quercus ilex</italic> subsp. <italic>ballota.</italic></p><p>The most important general use-subcategories are as raw vegetables (27.43% of the use-reports and including 81 species), infusions (14.74%/42) and gastrointestinal (12.53%/42). Conceptually foods and medicines are clearly distinguished but the intermediate group of health foods is more ambiguous.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Food and medicinal uses of plants are culturally closely linked. A wide range of plants are known and many still used. The analysis shows that the Basques use a wide range of species which are typical for Western European cultures. In comparison to other studies in the Mediterranean countries there are many similarities in the uses of different families, species of plants and their use and preparations. Some of these plants are key Mediterranean species, often used for a multitude of uses as food and medicine.</p></sec></abstract><abstract abstract-type="graphical"><title>Graphical abstract</title><p><fig id="f0010" position="anchor"><alt-text id="at0020">fx1</alt-text><graphic xlink:href="fx1"></graphic></fig></p></abstract><kwd-group><title>Abbreviations</title><kwd>F, food</kwd><kwd>H-F, Health food</kwd><kwd>I, Izki</kwd><kwd>M, medicinal</kwd><kwd>V, Valderejo</kwd><kwd>VA, Valle de Arana</kwd><kwd>VIVA area, the combined area of Izki, Valderejo and Valle de Arana.</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group><title>Keywords</title><kwd>Spanish Basque Country</kwd><kwd>Food plants</kwd><kwd>Food-medicines</kwd><kwd>Traditional knowledge</kwd><kwd>Ethnopharmacology</kwd><kwd>Ethnobotany</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body><sec id="s0005"><label>1</label><title>Introduction</title><p><disp-quote><p>“<italic>… to draw the attention of ethnopharmacologists to the dietary dimension of plant utilisation. The conventional approach in ethnopharmacology is to focus on the medicinal properties of plants without adequately exploring other categories of use. As a result, we are unduly circumscribed in our understanding of the extra-nutritive aspects of food phytochemistry</italic>’’ (<xref rid="bib26" ref-type="bibr">Etkin and Ross, 1991</xref>, p. 25).</p></disp-quote></p><p>Nearly a quarter of a century has passed since Nina Etkin and Paul J. Ross led the ethnopharmacological discussion towards a (renewed) emphasis on the interface of food and medicine. It has been argued convincingly that we should set aside a place for food and try to understand its health promoting effects (<xref rid="bib81" ref-type="bibr">Pieroni and Price, 2006</xref>).</p><p>Health(y) food has also entered mainstream discussions in many countries and the idea of “let food be your medicine” (attributed to Hippocrates, 460-377 BCA) is again a popular concept. An important aspect that is being highlighted in this discussion is the importance of today’s interest, from the markets and people, in functional foods, tailor-made to suit specific groups (e.g. the elderly, the young, physically active people, and people with specific conditions). The quest for diets which allow for a healthy ageing is strongly linked with increased life expectancy and larger financial assets of some sectors of the population (e.g. <xref rid="bib44" ref-type="bibr">Heinrich and Prieto-García, 2008</xref>; <xref rid="bib48" ref-type="bibr">Keatinge et al., 2010</xref>).</p><p>Indeed one of the well-known benefits of the Mediterranean diet is its long life expectancy (<xref rid="bib104" ref-type="bibr">Willett et al., 1995</xref>) and many ethnobotanical surveys around the region show the importance of wild food plants and specifically wild vegetables in the Mediterranean diet (e.g., <xref rid="bib80" ref-type="bibr">Pieroni et al., 2005</xref>; <xref rid="bib89" ref-type="bibr">Rivera et al., 2005</xref>; <xref rid="bib95" ref-type="bibr">Tardío et al., 2006</xref>; <xref rid="bib53" ref-type="bibr">Leonti, 2012</xref>). Several authors have highlighted that one of the reasons that explain the prevalence of its consumption is that they have a clear positive influence on health (<xref rid="bib54" ref-type="bibr">Leonti et al., 2006</xref>, <xref rid="bib91" ref-type="bibr">Sánchez-Mata et al., 2012</xref>). For instance, a review of the wild vegetables traditionally used in Spain showed that 23 % of them were also orally taken as medicinal plants. They were mainly used to prepare infusions drunk to cure many different complaints, but some species were eaten with a specific medicinal purpose (<xref rid="bib96" ref-type="bibr">Tardío, 2010</xref>). <italic>Urtica dioica</italic> leaves are for instance taken in omelettes against hoarseness (<xref rid="bib73" ref-type="bibr">Pardo-de-Santayana, 2008</xref>) or hypertension (<xref rid="bib12" ref-type="bibr">Bonet and Vallès, 2002</xref>). In the case of Southern Spain, a study made in Sierra de Alcaraz and Serranía de Cuenca showed an even higher rate, since 58% of wild foods had also medicinal uses (<xref rid="bib89" ref-type="bibr">Rivera et al., 2005</xref>).</p><p>Besides its role for curing, they also play a major role as preventive remedies. People for instance consume many herbal teas such as <italic>Chamaemelum nobile</italic> L. or <italic>Mentha pulegium</italic> L. after meal to prevent indigestion (<xref rid="bib74" ref-type="bibr">Pardo-de-Santayana et al., 2005</xref>, <xref rid="bib63" ref-type="bibr">Menendez-Baceta et al., 2014</xref>). Other examples of valuable species are olive, garlic and lemon (<xref rid="bib88" ref-type="bibr">Rivera and Obón, 1993</xref>).</p><p>Besides the local perception of the health benefits of wild foods, the high nutritional interest of many of these species is also well-known (e.g. <xref rid="bib29" ref-type="bibr">Flyman and Afolayan, 2006</xref>; <xref rid="bib40" ref-type="bibr">Guarrera and Savo, 2013</xref>; <xref rid="bib66" ref-type="bibr">Morales et al., 2013</xref>). Many contain high amounts of vitamins and other antioxidants such as flavonoids, carotenoids of polyphenols, minerals, fibres and essentials fatty acids, commonly in higher amounts than their cultivated relatives (<xref rid="bib97" ref-type="bibr">Tardío, 2011</xref>). For instance, <xref rid="bib105" ref-type="bibr">Zeghichi et al. (2003)</xref> found high antioxidant and mineral levels in the 25 Cretan species studied. The phenolic content was remarkably high in <italic>Crepis vesicaria</italic> L. Another interesting species is <italic>Montia fontana</italic> L., with appreciable amounts of vitamin C, Mn, and very high lipid content being one of the richest source of omega-3 fatty acids among leafy vegetables (<xref rid="bib95" ref-type="bibr">Tardío et al., 2006</xref>). The young shoots of <italic>Asparagus acutifolius</italic> L., <italic>Humulus lupulus</italic> L., <italic>Bryonia dioica</italic> Jacq. and <italic>Tamus communis</italic> L. are richer sources of carotenoids than many of the commercially available leafy vegetables (<xref rid="bib32" ref-type="bibr">García‐Herrera et al., 2014</xref>).</p><p>Therefore, local pharmacopoeias and gastronomies of Mediterranean industrialised countries have received growing attention (e.g. <xref rid="bib79" ref-type="bibr">Pieroni et al., 2002</xref>, <xref rid="bib82" ref-type="bibr">2004</xref>; <xref rid="bib43" ref-type="bibr">Hanlidou et al., 2004</xref>; <xref rid="bib92" ref-type="bibr">Scherrer et al., 2005</xref>; <xref rid="bib60" ref-type="bibr">Maxia et al., 2007</xref>; <xref rid="bib42" ref-type="bibr">Hadjichambis et al., 2008</xref>; <xref rid="bib69" ref-type="bibr">Nebel and Heinrich, 2009</xref>; <xref rid="bib70" ref-type="bibr">Novais et al., 2004</xref>; <xref rid="bib75" ref-type="bibr">Pardo-de-Santayana and Macía, 2015</xref>) and this has been linked to the impact of written traditions which have facilitated the dissemination and continued use of these medicinal plants (<xref rid="bib52" ref-type="bibr">Leonti, 2011</xref>). Spain being one of the regions where more such ethnobotanical studies have been conducted because of its high biological and cultural diversity (e.g. <xref rid="bib89" ref-type="bibr">Rivera et al., 2005</xref>, <xref rid="bib90" ref-type="bibr">2006</xref>; <xref rid="bib99" ref-type="bibr">Tardío et al., 2005</xref>; <xref rid="bib78" ref-type="bibr">Pardo-de-Santayana et al., 2007</xref>; <xref rid="bib71" ref-type="bibr">Parada et al., 2009</xref>; <xref rid="bib86" ref-type="bibr">Rigat et al., 2009</xref>; <xref rid="bib10" ref-type="bibr">Benítez et al., 2010</xref>; <xref rid="bib33" ref-type="bibr">González et al., 2010</xref>, <xref rid="bib34" ref-type="bibr">González et al., 2011a</xref>, <xref rid="bib35" ref-type="bibr">González et al., 2011b</xref>; <xref rid="bib17" ref-type="bibr">Carrió and Vallès, 2012</xref>; <xref rid="bib102" ref-type="bibr">Viteri Alarcόn, 2012</xref>; <xref rid="bib87" ref-type="bibr">Rigat et al., 2013</xref>).</p><p>There is therefore relatively abundant information on inventories of medicinal and wild food taxa in Spain, but there are still poorly studied regions such as the Basque Country Autonomous Community (also known as Euskadi). Euskadi is one of the regions of the Basque Country (also called Basque Country greater region in order to differentiate it from the Basque Country Autonomous Community). The Basque Country comprises territories in northeastern Spain and southwestern France with a total population of 2,900,000 inhabitants (<xref rid="bib9" ref-type="bibr">Barandiaran and Manterola, 2004</xref>). Its geographical position, at the interface of the Mediterranean and Eurosiberian botanical regions, offers a variety of climates and a diversity of ecosystems with a resulting high level of biological diversity.</p><p>Moreover Euskadi cultural diversity is very high, with two languages (Basque or Euskara) spoken within only 7234 km<sup>2</sup>. Given its ethnic and cultural singularities, it has a long tradition of ethnographic studies e.g. (<xref rid="bib8" ref-type="bibr">Barandiaran and Manterola, 1990</xref>, <xref rid="bib9" ref-type="bibr">Barandiaran and Manterola, 2004</xref>) but its medicinal and food plants have been only recently addressed with an ethnobotanical perspective (<xref rid="bib62" ref-type="bibr">Menendez-Baceta, 2015</xref>, <xref rid="bib64" ref-type="bibr">Menendez-Baceta et al., 2012</xref>, <xref rid="bib63" ref-type="bibr">Menendez-Baceta et al., 2014</xref>, <xref rid="bib61" ref-type="bibr">Menendez-Baceta et al., 2015</xref>).

The paper states that wild foods have not a clearly perceived medicinal role in the region. An exception was the use of mints for seasoning milk since this flavoured milk was recommended against intestinal worms. On the other side herbal teas were mainly perceived as medicines, and only few people drunk <italic>Chamaemelum nobile</italic> tea besides its medicinal function. The use of herbal teas in food contexts is locally not considered traditional and as Basque people are a pre-Indo-European ethnic group with marked differences with the surrounding regions they are not very permeable to such kind of new customs (<xref rid="bib93" ref-type="bibr">Sõukand et al., 2013</xref>). Maybe one of the costumes of chewing leaves might be a missing link in the food-medicine continuum (<xref rid="bib63" ref-type="bibr">Menendez-Baceta et al., 2012</xref>).</p><p>Euskara was spoken throughout the Basque territories until the Middle Ages, but today the predominant languages are Spanish and French. Basque is a language with no known linguistic relatives, spoken by about 660,000 people mainly in the north of Spain and the southwest of France. For centuries there was no standard orthography, and Euskara was written with Romance spelling conventions (<xref rid="bib7" ref-type="bibr">Baztarrika et al., 2010</xref>).

We selected three mountainous regions of the south of Euskadi in the province of Alava: Valdegovía, Valle de Arana and Izki (<xref rid="f0005" ref-type="fig">Fig. 1</xref>). They belong to two different geographical regions, Valdegovía to the <italic>Valles Alaveses</italic> (Alavan valleys) and Valle de Arana and Izki to the <italic>Montaña Alavesa</italic> (Alavan mountains). They are situated on the transition between the Mediterranean and Eurosiberian biogeographical regions.

For example, the region of Valle de Arana is well known for its potato plantations (<xref rid="bib59" ref-type="bibr">Martínez Fuertes and Arriola Loiola, 2003</xref>). As happened in other Spanish and Portuguese regions, these changes in the way of life of rural people have severely eroded knowledge and customs related to the exploitation and management of most wild resources (<xref rid="bib78" ref-type="bibr">Pardo-de-Santayana et al., 2007</xref>).

The density of population is low with the exception of Maeztu and Campezo (Izki), where density is higher due to the presence of industry. There is therefore a small proportion of people that have remained in their rural environment, exemplifying the last people depending on their environment and local resources. Generally, these small communities are surrounded by patches of fields where one can obtain some of the wild products used to prepare traditional medicines, foods or beverages. Today, most of these traditional activities have diminished, but some young people still practise shepherding, milking and gathering wild products, something that people consider part of their Basque culture (<xref rid="bib64" ref-type="bibr">Menendez-Baceta et al., 2012</xref>).</p><p>Basque was spoken until the eighteenth century in most of the regions, but today Spanish is spoken in all three regions (<xref rid="bib58" ref-type="bibr">Martínez de Madina and González de Viñaspre, 2012</xref>).

There is a population of 1148 inhabitants scattered in 24 different villages and hamlets, most of them with only 30 or 40 occupants due to migration. The area's inhabitants are highly dependent on agriculture as a source of main income. The main crops are wheat, barley, oats, rye, various other grains, potatoes, apples, cherries, pears, legumes and various vegetables. The area also has a vast amount of livestock, poultry and horses. Aside from agriculture the area receives some income as a result of touristic activities related to hunting (<xref rid="bib36" ref-type="bibr">González, 2003</xref>). The Natural Park of Valderejo which opened in 1992 has become a very important part of the area’s economy and life.

In this region people tend to be specialized in agricultural activities and the majority of the population are pensioners. The construction and services sector is only important in Campezo and Maeztu. There are very few large businesses and a moderate number of micro-enterprises. Some specialise in forestry and others in producing asphalt and chemicals. Rural tourism is increasing its importance, especially because of people visiting the Izki Natural Park (<xref rid="bib83" ref-type="bibr">PRO-Izki, 2015</xref>).

Walks through allotments, gardens, managed woodlands, farms, grasslands, marshlands and cliff faces were essential for providing botanical samples and identification. During these walks first-hand knowledge could be obtained from watching the participant interact with their surroundings. Open ended questions arose from watching their actions.</p><p>In most of the cases after the first interview, other meetings were agreed for providing deeper information on the plants collected and their food and medicinal uses. A collection of plants (ambulant herbarium, medicinal plant samples) was made to show to the informants.

In essence this functionalistic distinction is one which is linked to the perceived (i.e. emic) benefits, but at the same time this group also is somewhat artificial, since it is not recognised by people as a distinct group. Also included are species which have dual uses, both more in a food context and one which is medicine-centred.</p><p>Most of the top 25 species according to their number of UR are H-F. <italic>Jasonia glutinosa</italic> (6.6% of the UR)<italic>, Chamaemelum nobile</italic> (6.2%), <italic>Prunus spinosa</italic> (4.7%), <italic>Quercus ilex</italic> subsp. <italic>ballota</italic> (4.3%), <italic>Santolina chamaecyparissus</italic> (3.7%) and <italic>Thymus vulgaris</italic> (3.0%) stand out as being central to the inhabitants of the region (<xref rid="t0005" ref-type="table">Table 1</xref>). Seven species are food only (<italic>Castanea sativa, Rubus castroviejoi, Rubus caesius, Fagus sylvatica, Arbutus unedo, Corylus</italic> and <italic>Fragaria vesca</italic>). These species are widely used and have a high cultural salience.</p><p>This calls into question an important paradigm in ethnopharmacology, and we need to consider ways to present medicinal and food properties in an integrated way (cf. <xref rid="bib26" ref-type="bibr">Etkin and Ross, 1991</xref>; <xref rid="bib89" ref-type="bibr">Rivera et al., 2005</xref>). Our informants generally do not draw a very strict line between food and medicinal plants, highlighting the ambivalent nature of these two categories. The majority of the informants recognise that food plants can prevent or heal disease or “cleanse” the body.</p><p>Plants are used according to the needs of the people and different preparations, uses, applications, etc. Culturally speaking, people will manage the plants with proactively focusing on their uses for ailments, diseases, as food, beverages, etc., with the intention of preventing health problems from emerging, or subsequent treatment, if they do emerge.</p><p>The challenges of the borderline between food and medicines is well illustrated by <italic>Jasonia glutinosa</italic> (<italic>té de roca</italic>) and <italic>Chamaemelum nobile</italic> (<italic>manzanilla</italic>) which are common and important social beverages reported in the VIVA regions and generally prepared as infusions or macerations. An infusion of <italic>J. glutinosa</italic>, is the most popular local tea and in many Spanish regions is widely available as a speciality beverage, also served in restaurants (<xref rid="bib76" ref-type="bibr">Pardo-de-Santayana and Morales, 2004</xref>, <xref rid="bib74" ref-type="bibr">Pardo-de-Santayana et al., 2005</xref>). Consequently, its importance in local Basque phytotherapy and as a health food is not surprising. It is used both as an herbal tea for general use and specifically to help with digestion, in case of stomach pain or diarrhoea. There clearly is an overlap between these uses and there can be no sharp dividing line between a general use just as a food (i.e. without any health-related expectations), as a health food or as a specific medication to treat stomach pain, or diarrhoea (i.e. they are <italic>medicinal by function</italic>). Both its use as a general herbal tea and as an herbal medicine have a high number of use reports. Its popularity is linked to the chemical profile of the species and especially the high content of essential oil rich in camphor, borneol and <italic>cis</italic>-nerolidol (<xref rid="bib74" ref-type="bibr">Pardo-de-Santayana et al., 2005</xref>) and one can link these constituents both to its use as a food and as a medicine.</p><p>The situation is very similar in the case of <italic>Chamaemelum nobile</italic>, the second most popular species again with uses as a medicine in case of gastrointestinal disorders, as a general digestive or as a herbal tea with a more general usage. In another region in the Basque Country, <italic>C. nobile</italic> is the most commonly used species used for stomach-aches and digestive pains and disorders (<xref rid="bib63" ref-type="bibr">Menendez-Baceta et al., 2014</xref>). The uses and names of the species have remained important in the area at least since 500 years ago as mentioned by <xref rid="bib84" ref-type="bibr">Puente Amestoy (c. 1960)</xref> in his study of the inedited manuscript <italic>Libro de plantas</italic> (Plants book) of Fray Juan de Vitoria written in 1587. These two species, along with <italic>Santolina chamaecyparissus</italic> (1.5%) and <italic>Anthemis arvensis</italic> (2.0%) stand as an example of aromatic plants important in local Basque culture as herbal teas and digestive infusions. The three species are called <italic>manzanilla</italic> (chamomile), a generic term that has been used in Spain to refer to many species used for treating digestive conditions (<xref rid="bib77" ref-type="bibr">Pardo-de-Santayana and Morales, 2006</xref>). Many other species including <italic>Lithospermum officinale, Artemisia alba</italic> and <italic>Jasonia tuberosa</italic> are used to prepare non-alcoholic beverages, mainly herbal teas.</p><p>The third most cited species is <italic>Prunus spinosa</italic> which fruits are mainly used for preparing a very popular liqueur called <italic>patxaran</italic> or <italic>pacharán</italic>. Many of its uses were also mentioned in the manuscript of Juan de Vitoria (<xref rid="bib84" ref-type="bibr">Puente Amestoy, c. 1960</xref>). Liqueurs, like herbal teas are important social beverages. They are generally prepared by combining several herbs, fruits and nuts with 17 species being used (3.98%). The most quoted were the fruits of <italic>Prunus spinosa, Prunus avium, Malus sylvestris, Rubus ulmifolius, Cydonia oblonga</italic> (all Rosaceae) and of <italic>Arbutus unedo, Quercus ilex</italic> subsp. <italic>ballota</italic>, <italic>Juniperus communis, Juniperus oxycedrus</italic> and <italic>Juglans regia</italic>. Important herbs were <italic>Chamaemelum nobile</italic>, <italic>Helichrysum italicum</italic>, or <italic>Berberis vulgaris</italic>. These liqueurs again are health foods, since they are drunk while socializing after meals, but also with the expectation of being a digestive, and they are used to manage minor gastrointestinal complaints.</p><p>Another key group of products are the various fruits processed in a variety of ways. The forth most cited species is <italic>Quercus ilex</italic>. subsp. <italic>ballota</italic>, widely used as a snack (toasted fruit) and as a coffee substitute. In this case explicit medicinal uses are much rarer and are specifically for treating herpes. Many other species may be used as ‘coffee substitutes’ including <italic>Hordeum vulgare</italic> (0.6% of UR), <italic>Castanea sativa</italic> (0.4%), <italic>Quercus ilex</italic> subsp. <italic>ilex</italic> (0.3%), <italic>Cichorium intybus</italic> (0.2%), <italic>Quercus faginea x Quercus pyrenaica</italic> (0.2%), <italic>Quercus faginea</italic>, <italic>Quercus</italic> sp., <italic>Vicia faba</italic> (0.1%). The choice is generally based on flavour of the processed fruit or seed which can vary between sweet, bitter and astringent. Combinations and variations of the flavour make the beverages unique and special. For example, the seeds of <italic>Castanea sativa</italic> are toasted then ground and boiled or infused in hot water. The roasted roots of <italic>Cichorium intybus</italic> are widely used combined with different species of <italic>Quercus.</italic> During and after the Spanish civil war <italic>Cichorium intybus</italic> was an important coffee substitute and its use is still remembered throughout Spain. (<xref rid="bib41" ref-type="bibr">Guzmán, 1997</xref>, <xref rid="bib100" ref-type="bibr">Triano et al., 1998</xref>, <xref rid="bib28" ref-type="bibr">Fernández Ocaña, 2000</xref>, <xref rid="bib12" ref-type="bibr">Bonet and Vallés, 2002</xref>, <xref rid="bib99" ref-type="bibr">Tardío et al., 2005</xref>). Other species, such as <italic>Vicia faba</italic> are used in a similar way to the Ecuadorian Highlands (runner-bean coffee or <italic>café de haba</italic>).</p><p>Condiments are also represented in the top 25 species. <italic>Thymus vulgaris</italic> is the sixth most cited species, being mainly used for treating respiratory disorders and for seasoning meat and olives. <italic>Origanum vulgare</italic> and <italic>Rosmarinus officinalis</italic> are also highly valued. People in the VIVA region have a wider preference for plants used for seasonings than in other Basque regions where people do not consider the use of spices as a Basque tradition since they associate condiments with immigrant populations from central and southern Spain (<xref rid="bib64" ref-type="bibr">Menendez-Baceta et al., 2012</xref>, <xref rid="bib62" ref-type="bibr">Menendez-Baceta, 2015</xref>).</p><p>A large number of species have a use as a general “tonic” or because they are simply considered to be healthy. However, this group is not discussed further and the following analysis concentrates on preparations with specific health claims.</p><p>Most key species (<italic>Prunus spinosa, Quercus ilex</italic> subsp<italic>. ballota</italic>, <italic>Santolina chamaecyparissus</italic>, <italic>Thymus vulgaris, Sambucus nigra, Juglans regia</italic> or <italic>Rubus ulmifolius)</italic> are also important food and/or medicinal plants in many other Spanish regions (<xref rid="bib54" ref-type="bibr">Leonti et al., 2006</xref>, <xref rid="bib95" ref-type="bibr">Tardío et al., 2006</xref>, <xref rid="bib85" ref-type="bibr">Quave et al., 2012</xref>). Obviously the similitude is higher with the neighbouring regions. The highest similitude was found with Middle Navarra, an area that borders VIVA in Valle de Arana (<xref rid="bib23" ref-type="bibr">Cavero et al., 2011b</xref>). Four of the top 5 species are shared (<italic>S. chamaecyparissus</italic>, <italic>Jasonia glutinosa</italic>, <italic>Chamaemelum nobile</italic>, and <italic>Prunus spinosa</italic>). Other Navarran regions are not so similar. For instance in Middle Navarra only three of its top 5 medicinal species (<italic>S. chamaecyparissus</italic>, <italic>Thymus vulgaris</italic>, and <italic>Rosmarinus officinalis</italic>) are among the top 25 of VIVA (<xref rid="bib14" ref-type="bibr">Calvo et al., 2011</xref>), and only two in Northern Navarra (<italic>C. nobile</italic>, and <italic>Tanacetum parthenium</italic>) (<xref rid="bib22" ref-type="bibr">Cavero et al., 2011a</xref>). The similitude with the wild food plants consumed in other areas of Euskadi (southern Biscay and northern Alava) is also quite high, since four of the top 5 wild food species (<italic>P. spinosa, R. ulmifolius, Castanea sativa</italic> and <italic>Fagus sylvatica)</italic> are in the TOP 25 of VIVA. More differences appear when the medicinal plants of southern Biscay and northern Alava are compared. None of the top 5 medicinal species are in the top 25 of VIVA (<xref rid="bib63" ref-type="bibr">Menendez-Baceta et al., 2014</xref>). Nearly half of the wild food plants mentioned in Gorbeialdea, are shared with VIVA area (<xref rid="bib64" ref-type="bibr">Menendez-Baceta et al., 2012</xref>).</p><p>Such similarities may either be based on an exchange of practise or on parallel developments. Keeping the interconnected histories of the people in Northern Spain in mind, an exchange of practice seems to be the most plausible explanation. A standardisation of the knowledge is based on historical events that can strengthen or weaken the knowledge of plants, according to the needs of the people for a given time period. For example, <xref rid="bib103" ref-type="bibr">Weckerle et al. (2009)</xref> argues that under Mao's government important information and books were distributed in order to improve the health care system. Herbals have exerted a strong influence increasing the similarity of plant knowledge among rural populations in China. However, distinct local use of plants also exists, indicating that plant knowledge, specific to each rural community, is alive and practised. In the Basque Country, after the civil war in 1936, much of the traditional knowledge of species was lost (<xref rid="bib9" ref-type="bibr">Barandiaran and Manterola, 2004</xref>). This is an indicator that political currents have a strong influence on whether people preserve their knowledge, or whether the knowledge is lost (<xref rid="bib61" ref-type="bibr">Menendez-Baceta et al., 2015</xref>).</p><p>Overall, this study highlights that due to centuries of interconnectivities, there is a strong overlap in practices and there are many instances of shared practice, pointing both the usefulness of these species and to the active sharing of knowledge and practice. Interestingly, the similarity of the area with the rest of the Iberian Peninsula is higher than in Basque areas where Basque is still the main language (<xref rid="bib61" ref-type="bibr">Menendez-Baceta et al., 2015</xref>).</p></sec><sec id="s0060"><label>4.3</label><title>Medicinal plants: Identifying key species for common health conditions</title><p>There is a group of 36 species used only for specific medicinal purposes (M) that are not used as food plants.

In comparison with other studies in the Mediterranean there are many similarities in the uses and preparations of different species of plants. Our study demonstrates that some of these plants are key Mediterranean species, used as food and medicine. Consequently, the study leads to new conceptual and practical implications in the way of understanding the meaning of Mediterranean regions, Mediterranean species, which involve more than the geographical location.</p><p>In all human cultures food diversity and diet are strongly linked to health. Such plant products may form a basis for developing novel useful products (like health foods) from this biocultural diversity. The present research provides baseline information that offers the possibility of further research into the traditional knowledge of the local people of the VIVA regions in the Basque Country. It is possible and necessary to maintain and further develop the information for future local and global uses which is a basis for conservation and sustaining and using these resources. If society’s desire is for new products which are sustainable, then much of what has been found in this research will provide the basis for potential new nutraceuticals. This information may even lead to economically profitable applications at a local, national and international level.</p><p>In the Basque Country further research on local and traditional knowledge regarding medicinal plants and food plants is needed.
