Introduction
Herbal Medicine sometimes referred to as Herbalism or Botanical Medicine, is the use of herbs
for their therapeutic or medical value. An herb is a plant or plant part valued for its medical,
aromatic or savory qualities. Herb plants produce and contain a variety of chemical substances
that act upon the body.
Herbal medicine has been used for centuries. In fact, there has been evidence showing that herbal
remedies have been around since the Neanderthal period about 60,000 years ago. Other evidence
of the use of herbs for medical purposes has appeared in cave paintings estimated to have been
made between 13,000 and 25,000 BC. Most of the synthetic prescription drugs made today is
based on naturally occurring substances and capabilities found in plants.
In fact, many of the familiar pharmaceutical medications we use today were originally created
from natural ingredients. Drugs like opium (from poppies), aspirin (from willow bark), digitalis
(from foxglove) and quinine (from the cinchona tree.)
Herbal Medicine can be broadly classified into various basic systems: Traditional Chinese
Herbalism, which is part of Traditional Oriental Medicine, Ayurvedic Herbalism, which is
derived from Ayurveda, and Western Herbalism, which originally came from Greece and Rome
to Europe and then spread to North and South America.
Chinese and Ayurvedic Herbalism have developed into highly developed systems of diagnosis
and treatment over the centuries. Western Herbalism is today for the most part a system of folk
medicine.
Interest in herbals and natural alternatives has been growing worldwide in recent years from the
reported success stories from the use of herbs. For example, St. John's Wort is widely used in the
treatment of mild depression without the need for Prozac. St. John's Wort does not have the side
effects such as that of Prozac. Some Ayurvedic herbs are very useful for reducing cholesterol,
diabetes, etc. Similarly, the popularity of Ginseng and Ginkgo biloba (ginkgo) is rising due to its
beneficial effects.
The Complete Herbal Guide: A Natural Approach to Healing the Body is an essential reference
book for anyone interested in maintaining optimal health and overcoming disease. The book
contains concise and comprehensive listings of over 150 herbs and conditions. This book has
quick and easy references to the all information you need to maintain excellent health the natural
