Comparing Natural Medicine to Conventional Medicine

    I have talked to quite a few people lately that have discontinued using herbal medicine.  I couldn’t understand why, so I started asking them about it.  They mention that herbs cost money and drugs are free, so they are going the free route. This wasn’t the case several years ago when we had many people using herbs because they couldn’t afford the cost of medication.  I know how times can be hard for people and free sounds good, but is free worth it? 

    There is a huge difference in how natural medicine works in your body versus man made chemical drugs. I love how when I use natural medicine I can feel the healing happening.  Conventional medicine can’t heal a badly sprained ankle in six hours, but herbs can.  Conventional medicine can’t cure arthritis, but herbs can. I know because this happened to me!  Conventional medicine has many negative side effects causing you to need more drugs – herbs heal without negative side effects.

Comparing Natural Medicine to Conventional Medicine

Main Focus of Natural Healing: To create a healthy person.

What we do with Symptoms in Natural Healing:
Let our body guide us in the healing process by listening to the symptoms.

Natural Healing Method: Create a proper living environment so that the body can heal itself. This is accomplished through changes in diet, cleansing and nourishing with herbs, positive thinking and lifestyle changes.

Products used in Natural Healing: Wholesome foods such as fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, seeds, vegetable juices, herbs and essential oils. No side effects.

Modalities used in Natural Healing:
Wholesome food program, cleansing & detoxification, exercise, hydrotherapy, emotional therapy and lifestyle changes.

Emotions people have that use Natural Healing: Positive attitude toward healing through following wholesome food programs, cleansing & nourishing. Control of your healing.

People that use Natural Healing:
Recognize the fact that past habits created the level of health, and take responsibility of making the changes necessary to heal themselves. Being in control.

Main Focus of Conventional Medicine: Destroy, kill or cut out a disease or malfunctioning body part.

How Conventional Medicine uses Symtoms: Different methods are used to suppress or remove the symptoms. The symptom is thought of as a disease and is treated as such, never getting to the cause of why those symptoms are present.

Conventional Medicine Method: Attack, kill and remove disease using drugs, radiation or surgery. Alter or remove malfunctioning parts or organs such as mastectomy, hysterectomy, tonsillectomy, radiation, etc.

Products used in Conventional Medicine: Drugs made from chemicals, animal waste and toxic elements. Many side effects which starts the drug cycle of more and more medication to alleviate the symptoms.

Modalities used in Conventional Medicine: Surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, steroids, dialysis, colostomies, insulin, etc.

Emotions some people have that use Conventional Medicine: Negative attitude, coping, fear, anxiety, depression. The complete feeling that your life is in someone else's hands.

Many people that use Conventional Medicine: Feel that they are an unlucky victim that caught a disease. Feel helpless and want others to "fix" them. Total lack of control and responibility for the predicament they find themselves in.

    As you can see there is a big difference in how these medicines work. I  choose natural medicine and have always had great results with it. I don't want to have my body parts cut out or replaced, I want to keep what I have in good working condition!  It is my hope that this blog will help people realize their health is in their hands, and that our bodies can heal if we feed it what it needs.

    At Herbs First we sell Dr. Christopher's, Western Botanicals and Garden Essence Oils and they are the best I have ever used. Pure and simple, they work. I hope that these products and this newsletter will help you on your road to continued good health.

    Please feel free to email me or call me at 801-228-1901 if you have any questions about any of the products we sell. We don't just sell products,  we know how to use them and we use them ourselves!

    Please note that I will be out of the office from July 26 - August 3rd. I will be happy to answer your questions via email during this time.

Have a great month!
Kathryn
