Before the rise of patented chemical medicines, natural remedies were used in North America as the standard of care.
Previously, Slate reported on this amazing map of 'Herbal Cures' from 1932 of the medicinal plants in common use among pharmacists and the public back then. The map itself states under the heading 'The Service of Pharmacy':
"It is important that the public does not lose sight of the fact that the professions of Pharmacy, Medicine, and Dentistry, each give an essential service, which must not be impaired or destroyed by commercial trends. The public and the professions will suffer equally if these services are allowed to deteriorate. In pharmacy the public should understand something of the breadth of knowledge required of the pharmacist. Few people realize the extent to which plants and minerals enter into the practice of pharmacy, and how vital they are to the maintenance of the public health. It has been stated that upwards of 70 percent of all medicines employed are plant products."
Flash forward 80 years and we have a medical system which relies almost entirely on patented chemicals and/or biologicals that are far removed from anything resembling the 'back yard farmacy' of yesteryear. The FDA's very definition of a drug now precludes the use of natural substances, and drug-based medicine has become a form of human sacrifice, on a scale that may exceed previous civilizations sacrifice of their population for ostensibly religious reasons. This map should be shared far and wide and hopefully will shed light on the massive, emergent database of natural substances (there are about 1700 indexed on our website alone) that can be used to treat a staggeringly wide range of health conditions (over 3,000 indexed on our site alone).
Note: Amazingly, you will find the much demonized Cannabis Sativa listed as a medicinal plant used on the Druggist's map! Consider that in modern times this plant alone has been used to incarcerate hundreds of thousands of citizens simply for possessing, using and/or trading it as a commodity!

I agree!
It worked for me years ago when I was depressed with herpes. After trying numerous other methods, It was actually an old Ibo lady who brought to my notice the healing effect of natural medicine (roots and herbs). She too has been permanently cured from HERPES long time ago through one Dr Utu at "drutuherbalcure@gmail.com".
Dr Utu specialises in African roots and herbs for medicine. Apparently roots and herbs have well been known as effective key treatment for herpes. Well she introduced me to Dr Utu who till date remain my savior, and he truly cleared my doubt. After taking his meds on the fourth week, I contacted him again who asked me to go for test and I was negative. From then till now I do my normal business no outbreak. I may not be a herbal fan but it definitely worked for me!
