Herbs for your Health

An excerpt from this page:

(9) Herbs are food for the body. Most of the healing benefit one derives from herbs is the result of their high nutritional content of needed vitamins and trace minerals. These critical nutrients are supplied to the body and, once supplied, the natural God-given abilities of the body to heal itself take over. If a condition persists after herbal first aid, remaining static or even worsening, see a qualified physician immediately.

It is well known that smoking is hazardous to your health. It is equally true that many food additives in use today have a deleterious effect on the body. Many of these additives have been used and accepted for years only now to be discovered as carcinogenic or toxic in other ways. Like poorly built automobiles with safety sacrificed for corporate profits, much of what Americans as a nation eat and drink is simply a crime against the body. The same agencies and associations which permit these health hazards to continue put forth the premise that herbs are of no value or actually harmful in their raw-natural state. Regardless of the number, origin or intent of these accusations, herbs, coupled with common sense and moderation, are a viable source of health therapy. Those who say all herbs in their raw state are of no value are as much at fault and as ignorant of the facts as those who say established medical practice is of no good.

I concur wholeheartedly.
