Herbal supplements are a necessity because we live in a day and age where over farming and questionable farming methods have led to a deficit in vital nutrients that the body needs.
Are herbal supplements superior to prescription medication?
From a risk/safety perspective, yes. Although most prescription drugs are synthetic versions of compounds already found in nature, they lack micronutrients that help promote the primary nutrients that are found in their natural counterpart. Even if the "active ingredient" is higher in the synthetic version, its lack of supporting micronutrients often leads to a reduction in efficacy as well as side effects.
Are there any side effects from taking these supplements?
Although an overdose of anything can act as a poison to your body, natural herbs are far safer than synthetic drugs and have virtually no side effects.
If these herbs are all found in nature, can’t I just go out and find them myself?
