Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda and Traditional Tibetan Medicine are popular ones, which are often applied to patients in many European countries as alternative (complementary) medical treatment. Rather unknown is the Traditional Mongolian Medicine (TMM). Considering the Mongolian history there has been an increasing interest in traditional Mongolian medicine since the beginning of the 1990s. This led to scientific investigations in this ancient medical system not only within Mongolia, but also together with foreign academic institutions in Asian and Western countries. Among the new academic partners were also various universities in Austria, and one of them is the Department of Pharmacognosy in Vienna [1]. 1.1 Traditional Mongolian Medicine Literature about TMM is scarce and mostly written in Mongolian or Russian. However, some books are also edited in English and some interesting information about the Mongolian health system and the use of traditional medicine during the last decade is compiled in reports available in online- databases [2, 3, 4, 5]. The next chapters provide a comprehensive overview about the available literature and refer to the following topics: Historical background of TMM, principles of TMM, traditional medicinal preparations, the Mongolian health care system, and the health situation in Mongolia. 1.1.1 Historical background of TMM TMM developed from Mongolian folk medicine and was highly influenced by the Traditional Tibetan Medicine and Ayurveda. During the 13th century, Mongolia came under the missionary influence of Lamaism.
