Who Are Going For Herbal Diet And Why?
|

|
Within the last decade the use of alternative medicines,
and herbal products in particular, has increased considerably.
In the year 2001, Americans spent almost $4.2 billion on
herbal and botanical remedies. This coincided with extensive
media coverage of the benefits that people were enjoying
from herbal remedies.
The percentage of people who were using dietary supplements
increased from 14.2% (1998) to 18.8% (2002), with the low
spot of 12.3% in 2000 and the highest peak at 19.8% in 2001.
The number of people ages 45-64 who were taking supplements
increased by 50% between 1998-99 and 2001-02. Broadly speaking
it was discovered that the majority of people taking dietary
supplements were older and mostly female (59.9% as compared
to 55.5% of males).
There are many reasons for this increase, not the least
being that herbal supplements do in fact being many benefits
with them. People can take herbs and supplements for any
number of reasons. There are herbs like Echinacea that are
extremely helpful in case of common cold or flu. If you
feel constantly lethargic even when there is no weakness
in the body then perhaps Ginseng tea can help to give you
a boost of energy instead of a cappuccino.
Ginseng can also increase sexual stamina, reduce stress
levels, and fight against aging effects like memory loss.
Herbal medicine is varied and within its diversity it covers
a broad range of conditions where it can be effectively
applied for treatment. Furthermore, these treatments are
conducted on several different levels that can range from
generic every day problems that need nothing more than symptomatic
relief to completely customized prescriptions that are prepared
for individual conditions in patients that have undergone
extensive analysis and examination at the hands of an experienced
medical herbalist.
Some herbals remedies do not require consulting a qualified
medical herbalist. Minor problems like mild infections,
cold, cough, catarrh, stomach cramps or gas, indigestion,
constipation, etc. can be cured with self-help using over
the counter herbal remedies. Self-medication using herbal
remedies has never been easier thanks to the limitless information
that is available today, mostly though the Internet.
All it needs is a little investment of time in order to
peruse these websites and anyone can make an informed decision
without having to visit a medical herbalist. In the 10th
century, Arabs invented a process of distillation for the
extraction of essential oils from plants. These oils were
inhaled as aromas, drunk as potions, and worn aromatic amulets.
This is one of the first uses of aromas as personal scent
preference. This is allegedly the root behind the use of
perfumes and modern day deodorants.
Nowadays, this extraction process is mainly used to get
the oil from plants and flowers for use in aromatherapy.
This form of therapy that involves nothing more than deep
inhalation of different types of herbal oils is being used
to treat a wide spectrum of maladies, both physical and
emotional.
Headaches, herpes, dry skin, acne, arthritis, and asthma
are just a few examples of the problems that people have
cured using aromatherapy.
Recently, France and England started the process of reintroducing
the various ancient healing techniques to the western world.
This began in 1990 and aromatherapy gained a wider acceptance
in the traditional community since that time. France remains
the world leader in rediscovering modern uses for ancient
healing techniques.
Several prominent French doctors prescribe aromatic remedies
as a matter of routine for most of their patients. A visit
to most French pharmacies will reveal that all of them are
well stocked in a wide array of essential oils. Insurance
companies in France are more than willing to pay for treatments
involving aromatherapy and other traditional methods. |
