Herbal Remedies:
Medicine or Quackery?
Think back to a recent conversation
you have had with a patient regarding his/her use of herbal remedies. How many times
did you hear these opinions voiced?
"I would rather use herbal therapies since they are safer than prescription
medicines."
"I don't like using synthetic chemicals. Herbals are natural and I prefer natural
to synthetic."
"I don't like going to doctors. It's easier for me to treat myself with herbal
products."
"My neighbor tried ginseng to increase her energy and told me I should try it
too." (continued)
