Resumen:
Eugenia uniflora L. is a medicinal plant widely employed in South America. Its evidence of use can be traced back to the Jesuit and Franciscan priests and the first South American botanists. The medicinal and food uses of this species give a proper background for the scientific research of its properties, the validation of its therapeutic utility and the exploration of its taxonomy, morphology, anatomy and phytochemistry. Nowadays, this plant has been extensively studied because of its hypoglycemiant and antihypertensive properties and its edible fruits.
