Herbal medicines treat not just the symptoms or what appears to be the illness, they also treat the whole person. It is known that treatment or suppression of symptoms will not rid the body of the disease itself. Herbal remedies create balance in the body, so that the body rejects illness, and therefore good health prevails.

It is also well known that the actions of herbal remedies are gentle on the body. This can be attributed to the fact herbal medicines have been extracted as naturally occurring substances.

 

 

There is a fundamental difference in the way herbal medicines and modern drugs work. Herbal medicines comprise of not only single bioactive constituents that act as a medicinal substance, but a whole lot of active constituents that provide energy, nutrients, trace elements and most of all several bioactive compounds acting together.

 

 

Today, plants are providing new and promising medicines in fields such as cancer. In 1950, the National Cancer Institute in the US began plant screening for active ingredients. Since then, one of their key developments has been successful isolation of ‘Taxol’. This ingredient is now used to help treat ovarian cancer (Institute of Natural Healing US).
