Herbal Medicine: The Future of Medical Care

Man being a unique creation of God is part of the universe. Like other living creatures, man has been provided with food, water and shelter around his habitat. Eco-friendly tribals collect their food, fuel, shelter, housing material and herbal medicine from the forest where they live. Health care, which was part of the traditional culture of the people as defined by the modern dictionary to be the “soundness of physical, mental or moral condition, especially freedom from bodily pain or disease” has become a profession in the modern industrial world. However, true health is beyond that, it includes the joy of living, the power and the ability to lead a satisfying and purposeful life.
Synthetic drugs created by the affluent and influential pharmaceutical industries have given rise to side effects that are more dangerous than the diseases they claim to cure. After suffering for the sin of fleeing from nature, under the bewitchment of the so-called modernity and modern-day living, man is now loaded with guilt and remorse, coupled with the new awareness about nature and its goodness. This has created a new enthusiasm for “Herbal Remedies” and “Enhancers”. However, the world’s attention has turned to the traditional medical systems in line with Gods plan when he created man. God’s plan for man is for him to live on an earth where he will be experiencing healing from the trees, fruit, leaves, roots and all manner of herbs. “In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manners of fruits and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the Nations” Revelation 22:2. Nature is God’s wonderful creation that comes with the package for our health, healing and happiness. The remedy for the sum totality of all humanity’s various sickness and illness has been pre-dispensed in the lushly growing flora all around us. If nature, by almighty God’s providential and never-failing care, has it all, then our intake of poisonous drugs and chemicals could be sharply cut, if not totally shut out.
Rarely but sadly, we come across certain aberrations and harmful chemicals that are passed off as herbs. That is us as humans, however with the regulatory agencies in place, such is now being eliminated. In this sin-sick planet of ours, there is not a creature that is not vulnerable to diseases, but then, the remedy is right here in nature, either by way of prevention or in form of cure. God has provided so much for the prevention and cure of all sorts of diseases that plague this planet. That is why he emphasized this in Psalms 104:14 “he caused the grass to grow for the cattle and herb for the service of man”. If a wild animal is ill with a certain health disorder, he goes to his own family doctor; Nature, from whom he picks up his medicine. A herbal something – a root, a fruit, a nut, a leaf or whatever he finds in order to make full and complete use of the resources with which our creator has provided all his wonderful creatures. Using her good instinct, Ms Parrot identifies nature’s remedy for her flu or Mr Tiger for his constipation. And it does work. Why instinct u may ask because these creatures cannot read what you can read like humans.

A retrospection of the healing power of plants and a return to natural remedies is an absolute need of our time. Herbal medicine is based upon the premise that plants contain natural substances that can promote health and alleviate illness. Modern drugs or conventional medicines are often viewed as impersonal, emphasizing crisis intervention. Not only are they expensive, but many of them also bring about side effects that are sometimes more dangerous than the diseases themselves. The World Health Organization (WHO) has estimated that perhaps 80% of earth 6 billion inhabitants rely upon traditional medicine for their primary health care needs and a major part of this therapy involves the use of plant extracts or their active components. Scientist in many parts of the world has carried out extensive research and has proved to humanity the effective use of herbal medicine. Ayurveda, the traditional medicine practice in India has been recognized to having convincing and credible healing powers as well as Chinese herbal medicine. Little wonder why we run to India in search of healing to the vast majority of our diseases when we have a large deposit of untapped herbal remedies in Nigeria. It’s about time we begin to develop our vast range of herbal deposits as remedies to our health complications and disorders. While I emphasize the use of plants akin to Ayurveda and Chinese, I do not undermine in any way the use of Allopathy, Homeopathy, Unani, Sidha and other medical adjuncts, neither do I debate the surgical skills of surgeons. In fact, I believe there is a need to encourage a multiple medical systems in our country with keen relevance to traditional/Natural practice.
