Before modern science, people used plants not only to cure all kinds of diseases, but also to stay healthy and avoid becoming sick.In the United States, native people used more than 3,000 different plants as medicine.Today, people throughout the world still use plants to improve their health.In fact, many of our modern medicine include some things that come from plants.
Some of the most popular plants used for health are called herbs.Medicines made with herbs use whole plants or parts of plants, such as flowers, seeds, roots, leaves, and fruits, to prevent or treat illnesses.Herbal medicines can be eaten in food, drunk as a tea, or applied directly to the skin.In many nations, governments do not recognize herbal medicines.Doctors cannot give them to sick persons.But still, most people in the world—perhaps as many as eight out of every ten—have tried herbal medicine at least once.There are special stores that sell herbal medicines.In addition, some kinds of herbs are sold in supermarkets and can be used for cooking.
Ginseng is one of the most common herbal medicine plants.It is said to reduce blood pressure and help the body fight disease.Another plant frequently used for its healthy benefits is garlic.Garlic, which is often used in cooking, helps prevent heart disease and colds.Another common cooking plant, ginger helps cure upset stomachs.Some flowers are thought to be strong herbal medicines.One kind of flower (Echinacea) may help people who have serious disease, while another (St.John’s Wort) has been shown to help people who are feeling sad or having trouble sleeping.
Scientists use many of the natural substances from plants to make different types of modern medicine.But true herbal medicine generally uses the whole plant, not just one part of a plant.Also, herbal medicine will mix several different herbs together in the same medicine.Another difference between herbal medicine and modern medicine is that herbal medicines are made to help a person’s whole body—not just to cure a problem in one part of the body.
Today, more and more people are recognizing the value of herbal medicines, and some doctors are even starting to recommend them.But even for those who prefer taking only modern medicine, chances are that at least part of that medicine comes from plants. [br] How can herbal medicines be used today?
