Herbal Medicine is the use of botanicals (plants) either alone
or in combination to prevent and treat certain ailments and
illnesses. Signularly or in combination, the numbers of herbs
available is astounding.
There are over a half million known
herbs that could be used as possible remedies.
Herbal remedies around the globe vary in strength from very
mild, gentle remedies that we even use as food, to potential
poisons if tkaen at the wrong dose. The old adage that, "an
ounce of prevention is wroth a pound of cure" could not be more
true. This is especially true when it comes to natural remedies.
People native to different geographical locations have long used
plants and plant extracts to cure specific maladies.
Sometimes the use of herbs is referred to as "folk" medicine.
Folk use of herbal remedies is familiar to all of us in some
form or another, cause that is how these remedies are learned.
Remedies and recipes for herbal teas are handed down from
generation to generation and are sitll remembered and used to
this day. Unfortunately, that is what fuels the fire of the
scientific community and thier disdain. It really is their loss,
because generations of experience and knowledge should not be so
readily dismissed. In fact, many of our modern medicines have
their roots in herbal medicine.
With all our so-called advancements in the medical field, it’s
interesting that physicians are still treating "effect" rather
than "cause."
Thankfully, the current changes in the world toward traditional
remedies is changing for the better.
