I always wonder to myself rather aloud, do peole in say America, Japan, Brittain, Russia, Germany, Canada and the many other developed countries still take unprocessed herbs directly from the bushes or gardens? In my country, herbs have proved to very effective remedies for certain hailments. Once my brother had a certain infection on his head, he tried all modern oinments and creams in vain. Then he left the city and approached a traditional herbalist, within a week, the guy had shown remarkable improvement. Today he is completely healed. Was this the potency of this herb or faith? Let me know your thoughts!

I'm located about 1.5 hrs from Toronto. I don't think there are too many around here that take unprocessed herbs directly from the bushes or gardens, but many are buying from the natural health food stores. I believe that several people are now choosing this way to treat pain, and illnesses, and most of all to stay in good health so that you don't get sick. I have been supplementing with soy, ... and feel fantastic.
