What do you think is the best course to take if you're interested in inventing herbal medicines?

We Answered:

Herbal medicines are discovered, not invented, because the object is to use naturally-occurring materials. Take botany and chemistry to find if any naturally-occurring materials have curative effects on maladies, or if they mimic any synthetic biochemicals used as medicines.

Do You Think Ginger Is A Great Herbal Medicine?

We Answered:

Literally ginger has changed my life. I love to travel and visit amusement parks and I was losing that ability. Ginger has restored that it keeps me from getting motion sickness. I also use crystallized ginger for those long days in the cold outdoors, it lasts a long time and soothes and protects the throat. I also buy ginger lozenges for cough suppressant and breath freshener. I lover drinking ginger tea as it soothes the throat, boosts the immune system and revitalizes. Ginger Ale is a very refreshing summertime drink, great on a hot day.

What is the single best herbal medicine reference book for a trip to Africa?

We Answered:

I would suggest "THE VITAMIN BOOK".
It has more herbs than any other book ive seen. Plus all of the details are clear and easy to use. If you read an ingredient in anything you will find it in this books. It has several plants and herbs only found in small areas of the world. There may be a better book out there but this book is the best ive ever seen or heard of. So thats why I bought it.

What do you think is the best course to take if you're interested in inventing medicines from herbal plants?

We Answered:

that is exactly the area im interested in too. I believe you dont mean, "inventing" medicines from plants. You simply mean extracting chemicals from plants. These chemicals from naturally occuring substances are known as alkaloids like phenethylamines as well as tryptamines. I wish to study pharmacology and focus on this aspect of it. Therefore im taking heavy chemistry classes. Biological classes are a nessity also. Graduate school is where you would refine your intrests. But in undergrad, chem and bio would be the most benficial
