Before the rise of patented chemical medicines, natural remedies were used
in North America as the standard of care.
Previously, Slate reported
(http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_vault/2015/05/13/history_of_medicinal_plants_map_of_the_plants_in_the_united_states_from.htm
this amazing map of 'Herbal Cures' from 1932 of the medicinal plants (/substance/culinary-herbs-and-spices) in common use among
pharmacists and the public back
then. The map itself states under the heading 'The Service of Pharmacy':
"It is important that the public does not lose sight of the fact that the professions of
Pharmacy, Medicine, and Dentistry, each give an essential service, which must not be
impaired or destroyed by commercial trends. The public and the professions will suffer
equally if these services are allowed to deteriorate. In pharmacy the public should
understand something of the breadth of knowledge required of the pharmacist. Few people
realize the extent to which plants and minerals enter into the practice of pharmacy, and how
vital they are to the maintenance of the public health. It has been stated that upwards of 70
percent of all medicines employed are plant products."
Flash forward 80 years and we have a medical system which relies almost entirely on patented chemicals and/or biologicals that are far removed
from anything resembling the 'back yard farmacy' of yesteryear. The FDA's very definition of a drug now precludes the use of natural
substances (/blog/why-law-forbids-medicinal-use-natural-substances), and drug-based medicine has become a form of human
sacrifice (/blog/has-drug-driven-medicine-become-form-human-sacrifice), on a scale that may exceed previous civilizations sacrifice of their
population for ostensibly religious reasons. This map should be shared far and wide and hopefully will shed light on the massive, emergent database
of natural substances (there are about 1700 indexed on our website alone (/greenmed/display/substance)) that can be used to treat a
staggeringly wide range of health conditions (over 3,000 indexed on our site alone (/greenmed/display/disease)).
Note: Amazingly, you will find the much demonized Cannabis Sativa (/blog/higher-level-freedom-benefit-cannabis-health) listed as
a medicinal plant used on the Druggist's map! Consider that in modern times this plant alone has been used to incarcerate hundreds of
thousands of citizens simply for possessing, using and/or trading it as a commodity! Click here to view the massive, poster size version of
