I also believe in …
I also believe in traditional medicine. I drink a juice which is consist of 5 power herbs namely moringa oleifera, capsicum frutescens, corchorus olitorius, amaranthus spinosus and ipomea batatas complete with vitamins, minerals, micronutrients, fibers, antioxidants and phitochemicals. watch my channel.
“antibiotics,were …
“antibiotics,were know to all native people”- then why did so many of them die young of diseases which are now easy to prevent through pharmaceuticals?
I happen to have had the privilege of living and working with ‘native’ people here and africa and I can ure you that nobody prefers traditional healing over real healthcare (if they can afford it) when they have something serious. Its only rich urban folk who prefer magic potions to real medicine(until they break a leg- THEN they go hospital)
Your ‘doctors …
Your ‘doctors creating sickness’ conspiracy theory applies just as easily to ‘alternative’ healers too. In fact, in places like Europe and Australia where conventional medicine is free and doctors don’t make extra money from extra patients but alternative healing is a free market Its the alt health mob with the big motive to manufacture fake illnesses then offer new fun expensive fake cures… Thats fine, but I feel sorry for the desperate ill sucked into being defrauded by this nonsense.
the reason why its …
the reason why its not mainstream medicine,is because doctors make way more money keeping people sick using drugs and surgery..than healing them ..its common sense man..hemp oil,apricot seeds, seaweed,enzymes,red alge,just to name a tiny fraction..
ok man..where do i …
ok man..where do i begin..antibiotics,were know to all native people.way before big pharma..heres what your missing..antibiotics dont acutually heal your body the way u think.they are very harsh on your system.and contain no minerials,vitamins.or nutrients to further heal u.i no longer have skin cancer,i used hemp paste to cure my skin,and chelation treatment to detoxify my entire body..and iam cancer free for 4 years now..and feel great.
5tonyvv- ‘there are …
5tonyvv- ‘there are much more powerful cures than man made drugs’. Such as? Can you give me some examples of powerful ‘natural’ drugs which have passed double blind tests (scientific tests designed to separate effect from observer error and placebo effects). If these alternative potions work they will pass easily. Where are they?
Of course some plants contain powerful chemicals- that is where much of the base material in the conventional medicines you hate so much comes from!
“Alternative …
“Alternative medicine is defined as that set of practices that cannot be tested, refuse to be tested or consistently fail tests.” — Richard Dawkins, professor of the Public Understanding of Science at Oxford, Denver Business Journal, Week of January 13, 2003
‘antibiotics don’t help anyone’? Oh really? TB, dysentery, leprosy, syphilis, pneumonia were all massive killers before antibiotics, and would be again if they were abandoned. On wikipedia look up ‘list of tuberculosis victims’…
OK,,are u doubting …
OK,,are u doubting natural medicine?? I can see u have no real knowledge about this topic..before white europeans came here.the natives cured themselves with plant based medicined..and they healed themselves.now antibiotics dont help anyone,u are brainwashed by pharmasutical companies..there are much more powerful cures than man made drugs..go study it for your self
Well, I’m glad you …
Well, I’m glad you got better. Sometimes the body does sort itself out and beat cancer. Your alternative health treatments probable made you feel nice but I don’t see why they would work on you but never in double blind scientific trials.
In Australia and Europe healthcare is free (or very cheap). You should consider emigrating…
whats your point.. …
whats your point..ive cured myself of cancer with out chemo..or drugs…had to go to canada for treatment.the usa is drug compaines are pure bullshit..
Can anyone quote me …
Can anyone quote me the death rate from infection before the invention of antibiotics (when herbalism was unhindered by any pharmaceutical industry plots)? How about deaths in childbirth?
uber- you can learn …
uber- you can learn herbalism (and other fraudulent mumbo-jumbo) on the internet, or from shiny books in your local bargain bookstore. Or you could study medicine and become someone who actually does something for people who need it instead of selling placebos to the rich worried-well.
I read that in the …
I read that in the USA herbal supplements were making the alt health industry 14 billion dollars a year. Incredible considering they don’t have to meet the same standards as other products sold as cures which were made through science instead of flim-flam.
Natural cures work. …
Natural cures work..but most people are not openminded enough to try them…most people dont eat right..and go to doctors that dont cure anything..just keep u sick and make money off u through pharmasutical companies…there is no money in the cure!!!
can you found …
can you found something about łac. arthritis urica, diathesis urica
Blah, Blah,Blah, …
Blah, Blah,Blah, I’m perscibed Morhine for back pain and would much prefer to use cannabis due to efficacy and Addiction issues but your stinking hole USA Government wont allow it, SHEEP like you make me sick to the Gut, And BTW 27 years of cannabis use entitles me to make an informed decision, Vaporising Cannabis or eating it is a healthy option for those free thinking people wishing to self medicate, you just need the courage to defy authority,infact millions perhaps billions do just that
Amen to that! …
Amen to that! people just don’t realise they can empower their self,the Pharmaceutical Industry is divisive at best and selective
on financial considerations first and foremost.
Look for colleges …
Look for colleges that do herbal medicine courses, but to do the courses you usually need a good biology grade, but if you havnt you can always re-study. I had to re-study but i also learnt from a wise woman near where i lived so it turned out pretty peachy lol
im in 11th grade …
im in 11th grade and would like to getting in to te field you work in how would be the best wayto go about doing that
well said!!! they …
well said!!! they are effective, any one who disagrees i have some cascara sacrada for their BUTT!
Say what you will …
Say what you will about whether marijuana, opium, coca, etc. should or should not be legal … but to make them schedule one and declare them to have no valid healthcare uses is totally ignorant. Because, indeed, they do have scientifically validated medical activity and those that make them illegal know it. Problem is, because they are natural substances they can’t be patented and they would take a lot of business away from the “legal” patenable drugs.
Then, your …
Then, your presumption that the herbs and Poppy exudate you mention “are illegal because they work” is utter nonsense and simply has no basis in science or the legislature which classifies these substances as being illegal. In fact, if you knew the first thing about the scheduling of these substances, you’d know the US Govt. considers them to have no valid health benefit, thereby limiting even medical research.
Both of your …
Both of your statements are extraordinarily ignorant.
The fact that a multi-billion dollar herbal products industry exists here in the US, where people have access to prescription drugs and countless OTC medications, completely nullifies your first statement. They use them because they are accessible, affordable, and quite often effective.
“The only reason …
“The only reason people would self medicate with herbs is because they cannot get their hands on the proper pharmaceutical extracts without a prescription.”
…as a registered medical herbalist (in practice with MDs, DOs, and NPs), people more often prefer botanical medicine because of traumatic or ineffective experience with pharmaceuticals.
