Herbal remedies………?
Posted by admin on Sep 8, 2009
I am curious – how many people here who use herbal remedies actually grow & harvest (or wildcraft) and prepare their remedies themselves, as opposed to just purchasing them?
Do you notice any difference in the quality or effectiveness of personally prepared products?
i for one use herbal remedies for some ailments. i am living in a rural community here in the Philippines and i have a herbal garden around the house. for fresh cuts i pound about a handful of kamunggay leaves and placed it over the cut. for mild coughs, diarrhea there are a lot of herbs to concoct.
the effectiveness is really not that far different except in extreme cases where the purchased products are conveniently ready to use.
My grand mom used to do that when I was coughing and they sure did magic stuff on me. Much better and healthier then the chemistry medicine. You know it is just like cigarettes the best cigarettes are those that you roll your self. You grow the tobacco, dry it and role it.

I do both. There are just some herbs that I prefer to have in my possession such as yarrow and rose. I also let stinging nettle grow wild in my backyard, even though most people look at it as a weed. The herbs that are not native to my area, I purchase of course. I have a collection of good resource books that help me work with more native plants, which is best for the body.
