Deep dives

Difference Between Plant Medicine and Standardized Extracts

Plants have an intuitive relationship with animals like dogs, and they possess healing properties that interact with the body to address imbalances. Traditional herbalism focused on plant identification, intuition, and holistic care, contrasting with modern chemically dependent medicine's symptom suppression approach. Standardized herbal extracts, while useful in certain situations, can lack the synergistic benefits of whole plants, potentially leading to side effects and overlooking the holistic nature of plant healing.
