Understanding about Herbal Remedies and their place in modern medicine is still misunderstood by a lot of people, this is written to give a brief overview of their place in modern society.

What is today referred to as Alternative Medicine was once the only way that people had to help them through their illnesses, regardless of their wealth and position in society.

From our earliest records people found that using certain plants and herbs helped to alleviate the symptoms for certain aliments and injuries, helping with the natural healing processes within the body. As the years have gone by people are now returning more and more too alternative medicine / herbal remedies because they have the natural qualities and ingredients with no added chemicals and associated side effects. Herbal and natural does not always mean a total removal of side effects as with any type of treatment there is always a possibility of a reaction due to the natural chemicals within each individual being in different proportions and having differing tolerances, the old adage “one persons cure can be another’s poison” still has relevance today, even modern medicines do not suit everyone the same.

Herbal and natural solutions can still have certain side effects just the same as you can have from taking ordinary medicine, at the end of the day it is up to you to act responsibly and apply small amounts of toiletries, cosmetics, creams, and oils. Drinks, tablets and liquids should start with small amounts before committing to the full dosage, you should limit the type and amount to that which you think is better for you. Whilst we still need our doctors and their pills and potions for severe and chronic illnesses treating our ailments with out the use of antibiotics is now proving to be beneficial not just to the patient but in restricting the virus from mutating..

I know from experience that alternative medicine / herbal remedies do work, a friend I know had trouble walking she bought some herbal remedy pain relief cream Blue Stuff and used this on her knee, the pain went away but it has not cured her, that will only happen if she has an operation, she knows this but in her mind the pain had gone and she could move around again and this made her feel better.

Alternative medicine / herbal remedies are not claimed to cure but they help with allsorts of problems from small to large, if the result of their use is to make us feel better and maybe improve our well-being maybe that’s a good thing.
