How strongly do you believe in herbal medicine?

[jennifer_bloom]

I do not trust big pharma and I Google herb and vegetable supplements online whenever I have medical needs. I believe mushroom and dandelion tea is better than Imodium or Pepto bismo. I choose natural remedies over chemical ones.

Most of it is BS. Yes, a lot of plants have some medicinal value, but it's rarely in a useful form. It's usually far too weak and has far too many other ingredients that are potentially dangerous.

For the most part, it's pseudoscience. Proponents tend to greatly exaggerate the benefit of herbs.

Herbs grow on the earth for that reason, God gave us these herbs for different purposes.

I trust proper medicine because it was invented by actual doctors and scientists who know what they're doing. I have no trust in hippy-dippy herbal medicine whatsoever.

Simples...

Pepto Bismol is seriously seriously helpful for me.

Whatever floats your boat.
