How do herbs differ from pharmaceutical products?
Herbs work closely with the body’s natural energies, helping it to regain proper functioning. Herbs may take longer to work, depending on the nature and location of the imbalance. However, herbs are generally less toxic and are less apt to have side effects than most pharmaceutical products. Also, herbs are not simply used to focus on the presenting symptoms, but are used to return the body to a state of optimal functioning: to a state where the body can heal itself.
