herbs

Tag details

Herbs have been used in food, medicine and health treatment for thousands of years. Hippocrates (460-377 BC) advocated the use of herbs rather than “magic” to cure illness. The discovery of the “New World” was a search for herbs and spices.

Whether you are adding basil to create the perfect blend in your salad or using milk thistle to improve your liver function, herbs can be an important partner in the natural treatment of many health and wellness issues. Ginger may make your next flight more comfortable, Kava may help relieve tension and help you sleep.

The Herbwife’s Kitchen hosts a great blog with no nonsense advice about herbs, demystifying plants and the importance of herbs in health, diet and everyday life. The blog site includes posts on the history of herbs and the use of plants for a wide range of human conditions.
