When i read the following article, i knew the bias in health media towards allopathic medicine so i understood the angle.  I would appreciate if Dhejuty would respond to this one, since it seems to be an attack on the herbal industry. 

Health Tip: Be Careful About Herbal Supplements 29 minutes ago
 


(HealthDay News) -- The makers of herbal supplements say they can treat or prevent a host of conditions and symptoms, including arthritis, headaches and colds. But you should do your homework when selecting herbal supplements for what ails you, the American Academy of Family Physicians warns.

Although herbal supplements may contain natural ingredients, the AAFP says some of these products also contain potential allergens and chemicals that can make you sick -- and they aren't necessarily listed on the product's label.


Certain people should be especially careful about taking herbal supplements, including those with diabetes, high blood pressure, epilepsy, blood clotting problems, Parkinson's, heart disease, liver or thyroid problems. People with psychiatric conditions or conditions of the immune system also should be particularly cautious, the academy warns.

It's just one of many attacks on the herbal industry. Our world (illusion) manifested from the minds of people with a war or warmonger mentality, a battle or combat propensity and mentality. The Matrix operates on fear, ignorance and confusion. A lot of this information serves to confuse people and to prevent motion in the direction of doing the right thing which may be a new or alternative thing.

Because some health companies do use harmful substances in their products, people should be concerned. We have an industry today called health and it's an open market and many people will get in to it for purposes of profit due to greed which blinds.

Cheap products entail using cheap stuff and most cheap stuff is chemically produced and is very harmful as a result, but this will not prevent manufacturers from using this cheap and harmful stuff. To them, money is the goal.

When you read a bottle's ingredient list and see nothing but herbs (food) listed as the active ingredients, you have nothing to worry about. It's only when you start reading about so-called inactive ingredients that are not food-based or derived that you should become worried.

Many health product companies are in fact mixing herbs with chemical substances (for patent purposes) and this can pose health risk factors (uncomparable to pharmaceutical drugs though).

When a company or business uses only natural products that are food-based (herbs), you have nothing to worry about.

These people! Boy I tell you! They love using fear and confusion, knowing the American people are susceptible to fear and confusion, thanks to their government leaders.

Peace be unto all!
