Aboriginal people, particularly the St. Lawrence Iroquoians, helped Jacques Cartier's men suffering from scurvy by providing them with natural remedies, particularly herbal teas and the vitamin-rich inner bark of trees like the cedar. This traditional knowledge of local flora proved essential, as it offered the necessary nutrients that the French sailors lacked in their diet. The assistance of the Indigenous people significantly contributed to the survival of Cartier's crew during their expeditions.
