Believe it or not, much of the modern drugs sold in the pharmacy are made based on substances extracted from a plant. So why don't we turn directly to herbs to relieve our ailments? Because, in some cases, neither we nor the doctors who treat us know that this is possible, since the wonderful knowledge of the herbal pharmacopoeia has been lost in time.
Just to recover some of that knowledge we publish this guide to healing plants. Our intention is that you have an overview of how to harness the power of plants, usually cheap remedies and without side effects.
