Natural Remedies
With the
plethora of pharmacological products on the market today, one could be forgiven
for thinking that they are a panacea for all illnesses. However, this is largely
hype as Western medicines, for the most part, suppress and mask symptoms. They
don’t reach the root of the problems.
This also
applies to the many artificial vitamin products you are confronted with every
time you go into mainstream pharmacists or even health food stores, which should
know better. Very often these vitamins can’t be absorbed directly and need a
medium to allow them to work effectively.
However, you will be pleased to know that all is not lost. Nature has provided a
remedy for all ailments, most notably in the form of herbs.
Herbs are the dried parts of various plants including shrubs, trees, flowers and
ferns.
Containing many powerful
natural ingredients, they actually aid the body to heal itself. The body is
equipped with a self-regulating system which will keep the organism is a state
of balanced health. However, you do need to de-toxify first.
All herbs contain one or more
active ingredient such as vitamins, minerals, enzymes and essential oils.
Naturally non-toxic, herbs can be taken singly, or in combination. It is
especially this non-toxicity which makes them safe and effective to use to treat
many different conditions and ailments.
Herbs have a gentle, but
deep-reaching affect on the body. Rather than suppressing symptoms, as Western
medicines do, herbs restore the natural balance of the body. They tone the
body's organs and glands, supplying the body with many vitamins and nutrients.
This process helps the body to rid itself of the harmful toxic accumulations
built up through a lifetime of wrong living. Once free of impurities, the body
can begin to regain its natural strength, which allows our natural internal
healing processes to begin to restore the body’s natural level of equilibrium.
However, though non-toxic,
herbs are very powerful and it is advisable to consult a qualified herbal
practitioner before embarking on a course of treatment. The Chinese are still
practitioners of herbal medicine, try consulting one of their admirable
pharmacists or herbalists.
Herbs are but one of several
natural remedies. Homeopathy is another admirable discipline, which is extremely
efficacious. The homoeopathists gradually distil their remedies in a style
reminiscent of alchemists. The final product is virtually impossible to see, but
extremely powerful and effective.
Naturopathy is another natural
remedy, but dispenses with virtually all medicines, preferring to use the power
of psychology to work its effects.
Last, but not least is a
natural fruit diet, which, by the natural enzymes present in the fruit,
de-toxifies whilst still providing the body with many necessary vitamins. One of
the most important vitamins which need to be refreshed daily, especially if you
smoke or drink coffee, is vitamin C. Citric fruits are an excellent course of
vitamin C. Fruit juices, especially, those produced naturally, can be one of the
main components of a fruit diet.
