Herbals – A Myth!
Myth:Herbal don’t have any side effects and they are always safe
Herbal remedies have been around for centuries. And,
you have seen that your markets are flooded with
herbal remedies, herbal foods and drinks. And chances are,
that you are regularly getting messages about
health benefits of different herbal remedies through social media.
You use them to improve your health. But,
you need to be cautious before blindly
following the advice (mostly from some unknown sources) as
all herbal remedies have different effects in different condition.
Also, they interact with other drug’s action which you are taking.
Just because herbs are natural, it doesn’t mean that
they don’t harm you.
you cannot use them indiscriminately
Before using any herbal remedy, you must know-
- what it does
- how to prepare it
- how to use it
- what are its side effects.
And it is always better to consult your ayurvedic doctor
before starting any herbal remedies.
TRUTH:You can not use herbals blindly-they also have side effects.
FOR EXAMPLE: Pregnant women should not take aloe vera juice
