For centuries, plants have existed as a source of food and medicine for all civilations around the globe. Plants and their healing properties on the body have been studied for thousands of years in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurvedic medicine. Herbal medicine was commonly practiced in the early 1900's in the United States by Eclectic physicians and as home folk remedies. Once antibiotics were created in the 1930's, people began to turn more toward pharmaceuticals and chemical derived medicinals instead of herbalism. Unfortunately, the overall health of most Americans is at a crisis state where many adults and children are suffering from various chronic diseases. These chronic conditions have become so commonplace that most people just accept them as a "normal" part of life. While pharmaceutical use is at an all-time high, many people are slowly realizing that diet, lifestyle, and traditional herbalism have a vital role to play in overall wellness. The one size fits all philsophy that has dominated mainstream medicine is simply a bandage that does not allow the body to do what it is fully capable of, which is to heal itself when given the proper resources.
