Herbs are excellent
plant sources of foods loaded with nutrients (vitamins, minerals, enzymes
and more) which our body can use to achieve and maintain good health.
Herbs also nourish, regulate, cleanse and help the body heal
itself. Herbs are powerful
natural foods.
Herbs don’t cure but they nourish.
If the body has the ability to heal, it will use the raw materials
found in foods to do its own healing work.
Herbs do not heal, they feed.
Herbs do not force the body to maintain and repair itself.
They simply support the body in these natural functions.
