Medicines are medically recommended remedies intended for ameliorating disease conditions, restoring good health and vitality to man. Marine medicine is the restoring of health in relations to ocean derivatives. It encompasses a variety of practices using marine organisms to maintain health by prevention and treatment as medicine.
Marine medicine therefore is the science of healing, maintaining and restoring health by prevention and treatment in relation to the ocean derivatives. The Ocean which is called the ‘mother of origin of life’ is also the source of structurally unique natural products that are mainly accumulated in living organisms. Marine medicine is not separated from general medicine but rather the general medicine applied to the sea.
