Viola é um género botânico pertencente à família Violaceae. Inclui várias espécies popularmente conhecidas como violetas e amores-perfeitos. De notar que a violeta-africana não pertence a este género. É muito empregada desde os tempos remotos. Homero conta que os atenienses a utilizavam para moderar a ira. Utilizavam uma guirlanda de flores da Viola tricolor para prevenir dores de cabeça e enjoos. Os chineses utilizam a espécie Viola yedoensis de forma similar. Esta última também é empregada em tratamento do eczema infantil grave em um hospital de Londres. As folhas secas da Viola tricolor, pulverizadas ou misturadas com mel até formarem uma pomada, aplicadas sobre as feridas, ajudam a cicatrizá-las. Para curar infecções cutâneas, tratam-se as partes afetadas com compressas de gaze embebidas em uma infusão da planta. A decocção alivia também as dores reumatismais e trata as afecções de pele, dermatites e eczemas. A infusão, que também pode ser bebida, combate as afecções do sangue, a debilidade nervosa, o cansaço, as doenças cardíacas nervosas e icterícia, pois estimula o metabolismo. Constitui um bom expectorante devido a seu alto conteúdo em saponinas e também tonifica e fortalece os vasos sanguíneos. Emprega-se como cosmético para limpeza de pele e como loção capilar contra a queda do cabelo. * Viola alba - Violeta- branca * Viola arvensis - Amor-perfeito; amor-perfeito-bastardo; amor-perfeito-bravo; erva-da-trindade; violeta-dos-campos; violeta-dos-prados * * Viola canina - Benesse-da-beira; violeta-brava; violeta-canina; violeta-da-beira
