Medicine vs Herbs: Which is more important?

Consuming herbs and drinking herbal tea is a very healthy way to continuously heal and regenerate ourselves each day.

So Are Drugs Bad?

The arrival of modern medicine is a very exciting breakthrough, which added decades to our life spans! Modern drugs let us live longer and happier, recover faster, and grow stronger. 

But let's not forget the distant, but long history of using herbs to heal and recover. For thousands of years, up until the 19th century herbs and mushrooms were our healing essences.

Medicine was created to cure serious, bad cases of illness and disease, as a last resort, and it was a great addition to existing herbal routines. It was never meant to replace the herbal practice.

But big pharma companies and businesses profit handsomely on their products, and spend tons of money on advertising. A problem we see now, though, is the growing overuse of medicine.

We use it more often than needed-to fall asleep faster, or to remove symptoms instead of looking deeper into the problems. But through symptoms our body tells us about some deeper, underlying issues.

The matter of the fact is, whether you want to protect yourself from illness or recover from one faster, whether you want to fall asleep faster or stay focused longer - there are herbs and natural remedies for all of those things and more.

There are herbs for stimulating immune system, and herbs for relaxing and sedating, and the effects are 100% natural and authentic, just as the nature intended.

I hope I could describe the overall difference between herbs and medicine, and how we can improve our daily well-being when we add some herbal tea to our diets. Herbs have been used for thousands of years, let's regain that ancient knowledge and apply it to our lives here and now. To a long and healthy life - Alexis.
