Herbs or botanicals are being used for treating illnesses ever since Ancient China. Regardless of your disease, there was a botanical cure for everything. Long before today’s pharmacy technician or the first official medical assistant, people were lining up to buy these miraculous plants. Today, still about 80% of the world’s population uses them, so this has to say something about their efficiency; otherwise, people wouldn’t keep buying them. Ok, we do buy useless stuff, but why would we still buy herbal nutrition supplements, if they wouldn’t benefit us in any way? Truth is, they do work and people prefer them in favor of the medicine recommended by doctors and which in many cases, apart from not doing their job well, they are also addictive and once you get addictive to pills, it’s hard to get rid of them.
You’ve probably heard of Ginseng, Feverfew, Ginko or Echinacea. These are medicines which help the brain oxygenate better, which help us memorize things faster and have a better immune system and blood circulation, among other things. They consist of many healthy nutrients which you need every day. Also, especially if you caught a cold or flu, you can rely on the Echinacea to make you feel like brand new.
Ginko is very popular amongst students who have a hard time memorizing so many pages. They have a hard time learning so much in such a short amount of time, so sometimes, because they feel the need of a boost of energy, they turn to these products, which already have a long-lasting reputation amongst patients. While I didn’t embrace it because I can make it on my own, many students did and they said they did experience a change.
While the herbs are the more traditional remedies, it's surprising to see that they are many times used as the first option, despite the person having other medicine at home too. Whenever you catch a cold, count on your family to send you to bed and giving you Echinacea pill.
