What is Herbal Medicine?
Herbal medicine also called botanical medicine or phytomedicine, refers to using a plant's seeds, berries, roots, leaves, flowers and bark for medicinal purposes.
Plants have been used for their medicinal properties long before recorded history, in all cultures throughout the world.
