An important component in the daily preparation of nutritious food, as well as in the preservation of products, is spicy-aromatic plants. Essential oils and other physiologically active substances included in their composition excite the activity of the gustatory and digestive organs, cause appetite, enhance digestibility, favorably affect metabolism, the activity of the nervous and cardiovascular systems, and the general condition of a person. In order to obtain renewable raw materials that preserve the group chemical composition and biological activity, this review examines a promising direction of a biotechnological method for obtaining a product — hydroponics. Some advantages of using this method in the cultivation of medicinal plants have been identi-fied. In most hydroponic systems, there is constant access to the roots, which allows you to solve possible problems with pathogens. It was found that if the health of the plant is strengthened, then productivity and yield will increase. And in the field of nutrition, many analyzes have been carried out, which consistently demonstrate a large, often twofold increase in the amount of vitamins and mineral salts. This also applies to the active substances in medicinal plants. The directions of further study are also clearly defined.
