Welcome to Herbal and Alternative Medicines Home PageWhy are herbal and alternative medicines so Helpful?One must realize that all physical energy comes from the solar energy packed into our foods. Dr. Bircher-Benner of Switzerland, in 1936, stated, "Absorption and organization of sunlight, the essence of life, takes place almost exclusively within plants. The organs of the plant are, therefore, a kind of biological accumulation of light. They are the basis of what we call food, whence animal and human bodies derive their substance and energy. Hence, sunlight is the driving force of the cells of our body." Our domesticated food crops, mass-produced and forced by chemical fertilizers, do not have the light energy that is found in natural herbs! Furthermore, there are some herbs like ginseng, garlic, and onions, which have been known to give off a soft, healing radiation of their own, called mitogenetic radiation. To fully utilize the LIGHT energy available, one must use herbs! You may also visit this site for herbal remedies and aromatherapy. Consider also the breath of life. One may learn deep breathing techniques and develop his capacity for respiration, but miss the fact that there are herbs which help overcome blocks to good respiration. Many suffer from respiratory diseases such as asthma, emphysema, and mucous congestion of the lungs. The inhalation and ingestion of select herbs can greatly relieve this distress. The vitamin E contained in herb seed oils helps oxygenate blood and otherwise aid as a powerful help in respiratory therapy. There are herbs, which when used in conjunction with hydrotherapy, dissolve in the bath water and help draw out the toxins and poisons that block pores. There are also herbs that one can ingest which will clean the kidneys and bladder, flush the liver and gall bladder, and act as diuretics and cholagogues. In nutritional therapy, one might follow a careful and bountiful diet and never receive the full measure of nutrients needed from foods alone. Many rare trace minerals and vitamins are found only in herbs! Foods grown on our modern impoverished soils are often deficient, but herbs growing in the wild are tiny factories selecting and concentrating the rare minerals from the dust of the earth for man's benefit. In circulation therapy, massage and physiotherapy can do great things for circulation. But again, herbs exist which are especially good for blood purification. They balance blood pressure, and help to cleanse veins and arteries of sludge-like material such as cholesterol that so often hinders good circulation. In psychological therapy, there are herbs which help supply the vitamin B necessary to prevent nervous tension due to modern day stress. There are herbs that act safely as mild sedatives and nervines helping the hyper-active person to maintain stability. Is it any wonder that the Bible speaks of herbs from the tree of life for the healing of the nations?
