I have several times posted a variety of plants that have efficacy in non-medical treatment. I personally choose to make friends with nature, Divine energy, mental state setting, medicinal plants, and herbs in maintaining health and healing.
As with this plant, Cordyline, in West Java called Hanjuang Merah while in Central and East Java knew as Andong Merah, which has properties for health, beauty, and healing.
Indeed, along with the advancement of the times and the progress of the medical world has made herbal therapy less desirable. Moreover, if people have to bother to look for one or several types of certain plants, process them correctly and appropriate dosage, and consume them regularly, all of that feels impractical. But, though lately some herbal supplements product which is generally extracted from certain plants, most people still ignore them, at least less to interest to them, including some medically recognized extracts such as mangosteen rind, soursop leaves and so on.
Just need to know the interest of my friends here on the benefits and use of medicinal plants and herbs in maintaining health, beauty, and healing, please let me ask a little about it in this poll and I hope you are willing to answer it. Thanks a lot.

Liked your medical plants and herbs poll very much!!! Try to use medicines with very great care, always read very attentively all the contraindications cause have some concerns about the possibility of their negative effects on the stomach, liver and so on. As for herbs, use some traditional as chamomile, tansy and so on.
Thank you very much, Anastasia. We must be wise and careful in addressing health and medicine because every thing about it has benefits, risks and consequences of each.
I don’t totally believe in Pharmaceutical products or herbal ones, but you need to listen to your own body and see what works for you. All people are different.
I do use plants from my own garden for various things and they work. I also use Pharmaceutical products. I don’t see one out weighing the other.
However, you need to be very careful who you listen to.
Thank you for your point of view, Pamela. I thought it was very interesting and helpful. I myself have been very far away from the medical world for the past two decades. I prefer to choose natural ways and lifestyles, but as you say, we must be wise in addressing everything, as well as in maintaining health or curing diseases.
I do take herbs for a few of my medical concerns, but due to side effects, I can’t take as many as I would like. Great post!
Thank you for your views, LaJenna, I just want to see the opinions of my friends about our respective choices about the treatment which is also entirely our rights.
There are always side effects to be concerned about with anything.
Of course, Carol. Every single thing, every choice must have risks and consequences.
Yes, sorry kind of short with my comments, my mind is elsewhere today.
There’s nothing to make you have to apologize, Carol.
Very interesting poll! I think that both herbs and pharmaceuticals have their place, but I prefer the natural ways as long as it’s possible.
Thank you, Ellie. Both have their own advantages, behind the basic paradigm of both; pro-active and reactive…
I prefer herbal treatment. Even now, when I write the comment I have two cabbage leaves on my shoulder. It’s getting slow, but I have a lot of patience. And I always look for an alternative to herbal treatment. As they say, “From Granny’s Pharmacy”. They were healthier than us thanks to this medicine.
Herbs are not a shortcut, but always safer and more effective. Unfortunately, lifestyle, modernization, information development, and incessant marketing aggressiveness have shifted the wisdom of old wisdom.
I agree. This is a matter of personal choice.
Of course, and as I’ve said to Carol. Every single thing, every choice must have risks and consequences.
I believe in natural and organic products. The pharmaceuticals contains harmful ingredients that does more damage than good all too often. Great Poll Albert.
Ow… That’s great Della, Thanks a lot
