Herbalism or herbal medicine means the use of plants for medicinal purposes, and the study of such use. Plants have been the basis for medical treatments through much of human history. Societies living before the beginning of written history used plants as medicine. The Lascaux cave paintings discovered in France depict plants as healing agents. During the Middle Ages, most families grew medicinal herbs at home. Knowledge of herbal medicine was orally passed down from generation to generation. But with the development of western medicine in the nineteenth century, the popularity of herbal medicine subsided. Modern medicine, however, still makes use of many plant-derived compounds as the basis for evidence-tested pharmaceutical drugs. The World Health Organization estimates that roughly 80 percent of the world’s population use herbal remedies as a source of treatment. Herbs today are available in many forms. They are taken fresh or dried and packaged as tablets. They can also be used in capsules, teas, ointments and oils. Herbalists even recommend these formulas over many plant-based pharmaceutical drugs for their holistic properties.
