Benefits of Natural Medicines

Whenever we get sick, we go to the doctor, tell him or her our problem, then the doctor prescribe some medicine and we simply go buy those medicines and start consuming it and hopefully we get well after completing the course. We never think about the side effects or what the medicines are made of. This is how we all do these days.

Ayurveda was developed more that three thousand years ago in India. Its based on the belief that health and wellness depends on the balance between mind body and soul. The main goal of Ayurveda is to promote good health and not fight any disease.

Some people believe that natural medicine can be sometimes dangerous to health because not all plants are safe for consumption, use of ashes in the making and illegal addition of allopathic medicines with it. This is because natural medicines are not yet developed properly and professionally by huge companies. If we see modern day medicines, they are packed in a fancy packaging and we see advertisement of these on television, but natural medicines don’t have such fancy marketing yet, hence people are less confident in consuming those.
