Natural pharmacy: 6 best non -psychoactive medicinal plants

I am really surprised at the process of tests and errors that our ancestors needed to find which plants arranged with healing properties for human health. Thanks to oral information and detailed written documents over the centuries, we have learned to use plants to cure specific diseases or for our general well -being

Western medicine 

Nowadays, it is much rarer than Western doctors are trained in natural treatments such as nutrition and botany ... which is incredibly strange, if you think about it. As a doctor, modern healer, should not your main objective be to help treat the deep cause of the disease with the surest remedy (generally a combination of medicinal plants), not to use Toxic and synthetic substances to mask only the symptoms?

Modern medicine, an oath of hypocrite?

I will respect all people, their autonomy and their will, without any discrimination according to their state or their convictions. I will intervene to protect them if they are weakened, vulnerable or threatened in their integrity or their dignity. 

"Food is your first medicine"

If you consider health care as an industry that really wants to help people, it's a bit astounding. However, if you consider health care as an industry that wants to make money by keeping patients addicted to costly drugs for life, then it is much more logical than it works this way. In underdeveloped countries, where medicine is not yet as strongly monetized or politicized, around 75 to 80 % of the population still uses traditional plants based on plants; And it should be noted that many of these countries have cancer levels, heart disease and other much lower chronic diseases.

Being rather in favor of a natural lifestyle, personally, I will preferably choose healthy foods, vitamins and plant remedies Rather than over -the -counter and prescription pills.

Of course, in this industry, there is a tendency to focus on natural psychotropic compounds 'hovering' such as THC, psilocybin, mescaline, DMT and others; This means that certain plants are often overlooked.

I compiled a short list of medicinal plants Not intoxicating that you can find in many grocery stores and local natural food stores, and maybe even in your own garden.

The plants are incredible and the fact that such a large number of them can be used for human health proves how connected we are to the world around us. This is why, at CBDTECH, we strive to provide you with the latest articles and products based on the highest quality plants.

The benefits of natural healing

I think people can assume that plant -based compounds are not very effective and are less effective than prescription and over -the -counter drugs, but this is hardly the case.

THE natural remedies Can be a solution that changes the lives of people who cannot use Western -type drugs for a number of reasons, including tolerance, allergies or other sensitivities. They can also be an alternative to expensive surgeries or specialized prescriptions.

There phytotherapy As this practice is often called, can be more suitable for treating the deep causes of any disease from which the patient suffers, rather than simply relieving the symptoms that accompany him.

The compounds natural plants Can also be used for disease prevention, health and well-being in general and even to improve the condition of hair, skin and nails.

The idea behind plant -based therapies is much more holistic that that of Western medicine and takes into account many different factors that can contribute to faster healing.

For example, it is now clinically recognized that lemon can be effective in decomposing kidney stones.

A practitioner who knows only a minimum of natural treatments can suggest lemony water and stop there, while a herbalist Experienced would suggest drinking lemon water daily while eliminating foods that contribute to kidney stones such as beets, lenses and red meat.

Medicinal plants act in synergy with the natural capacities of the body and also strengthen the immune system, thus reducing the risk of falling sick in the future.

In addition, the natural products Generally act without destroying the cells and the important compounds which already exist in the body.

Take antibiotics, which can cause stomach problems by destroying good bacteria.
