Natural Cures and Herbal Supplements - Are They Safe?

A lot of people are wary of herbal remedies and natural supplements due to a degree of skepticism instilled in part by the medical community, and doubt cast on several products of unethical manufacturers making outrageous claims or substituting harmful ingredients and calling them "all natural" supplements when in fact they are severely diluted, of a poor quality, old, or simply an ineffective combination to do what the product claims it can do. Natural cures, herbal supplements, and other forms of alternative medicinal (naturopathic remedies) seem to be almost an enigma - kind of like a pipe dream to some. SO, do natural cures and supplements really work, or are they just an urban legend of sorts, craftily manipulated by large corporations who have mastered the art of hype and publicity to sell you some products that may not work at all, or have sold an idea but not delivered the goods as far as effectiveness and reliability? Are herbal medicines and "miracle cures" merely a figment of one's imagination in hopes that they really can cure what ails them naturally, without potentially dangerous pharmaceuticals and narcotic drugs? The fact is, there are such an over abundance of herbal products today, it's nearly impossible to choose one that will be the most effective and is formulated with the highest purity standards. Or is it? Well, while you do have to keep an eye out for the fishy products with outrageous claims of being "miracle cures" (there is no such thing as a miracle cure or all powerful healing ingredient that heals everything) , there are definitely some very reputable, very effective and worthwhile alternatives to traditional medicine to be had. This blog is about uncovering those remedies, and seeing what works and what doesn't discussing products that have found to be unsafe of ineffective, and discussing the merits and downsides of herbal therapy.
