Herbal Remedies V. Modern Medicine

There is a long-running debate between people who use herbal remedies for various diseases and disorders, and those who rely on modern medicine to cure their aches and pains. Although neither one has been scientifically proven superior, there will always be people – both patients and doctors – who side with one or the other. 

Herbal remedies are “medicines” derived from nature that are used to treat the entire body. Some herbal remedies are taken pure – without changing the physical form of the herb – while others are converted into capsules, drinks, salves and creams.
Modern medicine takes chemical and biological compounds and converts the medicinal properties each into liquid and solid medicines, some of which are presribed, while others can be found over the counter (OTC).
