WHAT IS HERBAL MEDICINE?
It is medicine used exclusively from plants or plant based substances. The therapeutic activity of a plant is due to its complex chemical nature with different parts of the plant providing certain therapeutic effects. Because plants are natural rather than being chemically derived, they are easily assimilated and integrated into the body’s own chemistry.
Herbal medicine is unique as it supports the body’s natural healing process. Some health conditions that respond well to herbal medicine;
- Digestive Disorders: indigestion, food sensitivity and intolerance, bloating, constipation, diarrhoea, loss of appetite
