Written By Lizzie Weakley / Reviewed By Ray Spotts
Herbal treatments have been around for centuries. They were used by ancient Chinese and Egyptian civilizations, long before conventional medicine came into existence.
Although herbal treatments are nowhere near as popular as they once were, they still appear frequently in modern-day medicine. In this article, we're going to look at five of the most effective herbal remedies that you should consider looking into.
Ginkgo Biloba
There is a great deal of evidence that a Ginkgo Biloba herbal treatment can help those with symptoms of aging and prevent cognitive problems. It may also improve blood flow to the brain, promote memory, and improve recovery from stroke. Other studies indicate that it is effective in treating various neuropsychiatric disorders.
Centella Asiatica
Centella Asiatica is widely known in India and China. It has small green leaves and white flowers. The plant is edible and has a bitter flavor. There are many advantages of using Centella Asiatica for keloid treatment. When taken orally, it is said to reduce the formation of keloid scars.
It has been used for centuries for its wound healing properties. Its actions on connective tissues, cellular metabolism, and immunomodulation make it a suitable choice for trauma and burn care protocols. It has been reported to reduce the appearance of keloid scars and promote the regeneration of healthy tissues in keloids and ulcers.
Ginseng
Research has shown that ginseng can treat many conditions, including fatigue, impotence, and common colds. In cancer, ginseng is used to inhibit multidrug resistance. Similarly, ginseng reduces the frequency of tumors in patients with lung cancer.
Hawthorn
Hawthorn is one of the oldest herbs and has been used for centuries to treat heart conditions. Among its health benefits is its ability to improve circulation.
The herb is also used as a remedy for weakened hearts. In Germany, hawthorn is often prescribed for patients experiencing the early stages of congestive heart failure. The herb can also treat other symptoms such as an increased heart rate and decreased cardiac function.
St. John's Wort
St. John's wort significantly reduces the symptoms of sinusitis, premenstrual syndrome, and bronchitis. It was also found to alleviate coughs and sore throats, making it a popular beverage for people suffering from respiratory ailments. It can be consumed as tea and is best made with a sweetener like honey.
Conclusion
Herbal or alternative medicine is not a cure-all for all your medical ailments. Still, it should not be used to substitute known effective treatments that have been clinically tested and approved by accredited research institutions in medicine.
