Herbal medicine is the earliest form of medicine.
Herbs are a rich source of pharmacy — often containing several hundred active ingredients.
These interactions can have profound impacts on the human body — consider toxic herbs as an example. Just a few milligrams of the death cap mushroom is potent enough to kill an adult human.
Like the death cap mushroom, there are many plants strong enough to cause dramatic changes in the human body — good or bad.
The plants we use in herbal medicine fall in the latter category — offering changes to the human body that benefit us.
