Herbal Medicines are the use of botanicals (plants) either alone or in combination to prevent and treat certain ailments and illnesses. Singularly 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 medicines around the globe vary in strength from very mild, gentle remedies that we even use as food, to potential poisons if taken at the wrong dose. The old adage that, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” could not be truer. 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 herbal remedies is referred to as “folk” medicine. Folk use of herbal remedies is familiar to all of us in some form or another, because this is how these remedies are learned. Remedies and recipes for herbal teas are handed down from generation to generation and are still remembered and used to this day.

Unfortunately, that is what fuels the fire of the scientific community and their 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.

What is it about natural and herbal remedies through herbs supplements that make so many doctors flinch? Is it that these supplements are actually not good for us, or is it something else? While some doctors are beginning to support patient use of herbal remedies such as Echinacea, others are highly opposed to the use of some of the most beneficial herbal supplements on the market.

There is some reason for caution on the part of the medical community: many of these herbal remedies have not been tested thoroughly by the FDA. In the meantime scientists and researchers continue their studies to prove or disprove the effectiveness of these herbal alternatives. While some studies have confirmed the effectiveness of herbal alternatives, others require further researches. However, many people claim that they will continue taking these herbal supplements despite the opinion of the FDA. So who is right?

Many holistic practitioners feel that anything that seems to work does, in fact, work; therefore, there is no harm in drinking an herbal tea as herbal remedies or taking a supplement to support and boost ones immune system. I think the important thing to remember is that for any treatment.
