Home remidies have been part of our lives since ancient times and today there is a great movement towards utilizing and using these remedies as cures and treatments for all kinds of ailments and diseases.
Home remidies then involve the use of natural elements such as common herbs, fruits, vegetables and other natural resources that are available to us. These natural resources are used because they hold special medicinal properties that can help to treat and affect all manner of conditions. Often the main lure of these remedies is that they do not contain harmful chemicals and produce worrying side effects, both of which are often associated with modern day medical treatments and medicines.
This is why many people swear by what they can produce themselves from the herbs and plants they either grow in their gardens or that they buy from the growing and forever expanding, health food stores around us. From cures to the management of diseases and conditions such as hypertension, arthritis to acne, home remidies have their place not only in the kitchens and cabinets of many of those who use them, but in their hearts too.
Not only that, a reason given by some who make use of home remidies is that the medical profession has become too overly reliant on the use of certain medicines, particularly antibiotics which can have a negative effect on the body. Not only are their side effects regarding the immune system, but the over use of antibiotics has also been sighted for the growth in some super bugs and bacteria that have gone on to become resistant to antibiotics. Therefore it is a vicious circle: the bacterias get stronger and more difficult to kill and the antibiotics have to increase in strength and potency to try and eradicate the bacteria.
Then there is the environmental impact that producing medical treatments and medicines bring. For some, once there’s an understanding of what goes on in the production of modern medicines, this can be another reason that they will turn to remedies in the home. The earth and her resources are scarce and whatever some can do to reduce their own individual footprints upon the earth, they will do it.
Home remidies are often also the treatments of choice for those who believe in treating the whole body as opposed to isolated symptoms and diseases. For instance, if there is arthritis in the body, then a colon cleanse using herbs, raw fruits and vegetables maybe used by someone looking for ways to ease the pain of arthritis. This is because there is a strong school of thought who believe that a natural remedy for arthritis can often begin by easing constipation.
Rest assured that a vast majority of the remedies that start in the home, have been tested by many generations who have found them to be worthwhile and that is why they have stood the test of time.
