Medicinal herbs
Some of Medicinal Herbs from youtube
Plants contain phytochemicals that have effects on the body. There may be some effects even when consumed in the small levels that typify culinary “spicing”, and some herbs are toxic in larger quantities. For instance, some types of herbal extract, such as the extract of St. John’s-wort (Hypericum perforatum) or of kava (Piper methysticum) can be used for medical purposes to relieve depression and stress. However, large amounts of these herbs may lead to poisoning, and should be used with caution. One herb-like substance, called Shilajit, may actually help lower blood glucose levels which is especially important for those suffering from diabetes.
Some herbs are used not only for culinary and medicinal purposes, but also for recreational purposes; one such herb is cannabis.
