America over medicates itself.
There’s a miracle drug for everything yet the side effects are sometimes worse than the disease itself!
Acetaminophen, for example, DESTROYS your liver.

Herbal Medicine is not Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM). The herbal which is used following the theory of TCM is true TCM.

science is not better than nature.
a buyer has to do research before ingesting anything into their bodies (presb drugs, herbs etc) vioxx , celbrex research it.
they use herbal supplements, for one reason, they have lost trust in the medical establishment. that is the #1 reason. she makes fun of people taking herbs with her cartoons, but the fact of the matter is, herbs are still a safer aproach
