they say that herbal medicines are more safe and effective than the medicines we buy at the local drugstore, what do you think about this? do you recommend herbal medicines?

Well I started drinking Wheat grass a month ago and it seems to be working. I feel rejuvenated and strong so I continue taking it twice aday, every morning and before I sleep. It's all natural and very nutricious and I can recommend it to you guys.

I don't use any medicines myself as i try not to take anything. The nearest i get to medicines is the odd hayfever tablet in summer that i'm meant to take everyday but i try to cope without it if possible. My wife has had a herbal version of water retention tablets before which helped abit and she found no side effects from them she gets from others.

I don't use any herbal medicines as such. But, I think things I take regularly have herbal values. I drink green tea, for example, every day, early in the morning and also in the afternoons. It's very refreshing, and I can feel the health value too.

I'd prefer herbal medicine than pills. It's better to drink natural medicine than aesthetically made ones.

Most of the time, I would prefer herbal medicines. Normal flu, cold, sore throat, fever and cough, I rather not see a western doctor but head to a local medicine hall and get them to prescribe me some herbs instead.

Hi Acey Before the invention of modern technology and medicine it was herbal medicine which was playing a vital role in curing human, now a days the trend has decreased due to different inventions but all these inventions are based on herbal medicines. Yes, I use herbal medicine but not regularly I prefer to go to doctor for a diseases but if I have some gastric problem or flue like condition then I use these herbal medicine and I get relief with it...:) Although it is not normal practice but I still some time use it for minor sickness....:) Happy Lotting
