Unlock The Power of Herbs

Unlock The Power of Herbs

We have all used herbs in one form or another, be it oregano in your spaghetti, cinnamon in your baking, sipping a calming chamomile tea or perhaps you’ve taken turmeric supplements for joints.

Herbal medicine is described as “the therapeutic use of plant preparations to help prevent disease, enhance health and alleviate suffering”. Archaeological evidence indicates that the use of medicinal plants dates back over 60,000 years ago.

Many of the pharmaceuticals currently available to physicians today have a long history of use as herbal remedies, including artemisinin, opium, aspirin, digitalis, and quinine. Over 7,000 medical compounds in modern drugs are still made from plants and plant derivatives.

Herbal remedies across the globe
The World Health Organization estimates 70-95% of people In developing countries still rely on traditional medicine as their primary form of health care.

In Germany, prescription drugs are sold alongside essential oils, herbal extracts, or herbal teas and are seen by many as a preferred treatment to medicines that have been industrially produced.

In India the herbal treatments are so popular that the government established a dedicated department under the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare and created The National Medicinal Plants Board in order to deal with the herbal medical system.

In New Zealand, plant medicine was taught at medical schools well into the middle of the 20th century. Prior to the recent advent of synthetic drugs in the late 19th century, physicians used safe and effective plant medicines to heal their patients.

Modern Herbal Medicine
Herbal medicine as practiced today is a blend of traditional herbal knowledge and modern medical science. With the best of both worlds, customers can benefit from the combined knowledge and wisdom of both these approaches.

Medicinal plants contain nourishing nutrients (naturally occurring vitamins, minerals, trace elements) as well as unique phytochemicals that effectively re-balance and strengthen human physiology. They are quite different from vitamin supplements which will cover a nutritional gap but don’t have the additional deeper and long-term benefits that herbs have.

Rising demand for herbs for the prevention of mental disorders, cognitive function, eye health, insomnia, stress and gastrointestinal conditions is anticipated to boost the demand for botanicals. Furthermore, rising concerns over the adverse effects of modern medicines are expected to promote the use of botanical extracts as ingredients for dietary supplements.
