The difference between herbal medicine and pharmaceuticals [video]
Ever wondered about the difference between herbal medicine and pharmaceuticals?
I sat down with Doc Jones to introduce you to the philosophy of herbal medicine.
While modern medical practitioners diagnose what's wrong with you, traditional healers identify why something is wrong with you.
Doc Jones reminds us that pharmaceuticals are made of isolated chemicals from plants... For centuries now, humans have responded well to plants. Antibiotics contain one particular substance to help your immune system; however, herbal remedies and food can offer a broad palette of options for your body to use to boost its immune system.
If you have any information regarding pharmaceuticals and herbs you'd like to share 📣
