i’m you, OP. i use quillpad on my android device

how much should they sell then?

cya

you’re saying this only from your point of view, whether or not something is good is relative. you would say it was good enough than nothing although still less effective than meds nowadays to “cure” the disease if you were alive back then, at least it was the best treatment back then.

extensive, no. but for basic knowledge about the prescription my doctor gave me, yes.

it’s just an example, also i’m not talking about the strong smelling herbals as the treatment (although it’s the most popular one that being told in the history books and/or internet). there was lavender being used for antibacterial treatments though they’re less effective (since the pandemic happened on the medieval age) so no modern meds invented. it’s less effective for us but effective enough for them (the people back then).

why worse? also, it’s not too complicated for me since “complicated” is relative for people.

By declaring all opinions on a factual topic equally valid

i’m not saying all opinions are valid, i’m a truth seeker myself i don’t want misinformation or spreading it. but people can say what they think, it’s just us who decides is that info is true or not. that’s why i call it as “opinion” not “argument”

yes pardon my english, those words are likely close to what i would say in my mother language.

lol that’s okay, all opinions are welcome, life is not binary. but honestly, i’d also questioning this

just wondering why they’re here, gave my post a reply if doctors in black death plague don’t use herbals

agreed.

i’ll take my words back ig :(

what do you use that aloe vera for?

I’m not against pharmaceuticals, or doctors, but for most of my life doctors have been prohibitively expensive

can relate to this lol

I have a good paying job now with good insurance

good for you!

time effectiveness doesn’t matter for me, but if you’re talking about the effectiveness about the meds especially for little issues, for me, it’s the same. i just don’t like something instant, i do enjoy the process of everything that i do though. just asking for opinion here, all opinions are welcome 👌

I feel OP are fishing for something else though like “modern medicine bad/big pharma bad”

no, not really tbh. i also take their meds when it gets to serious issues.

are you choosing the plants that have those same chemicals when you choose a remedy?

yes, i’d research what my doctor told me to take and find the alternative. like example: if they told me to take paracetamol because a headache, i’d choose ginger instead and go to sleep after. as far as i know, paracetamol has side effects to make us sleepy and makes us wanna take a nap, which is the natural way to treat a headache. ginger also has this effect. i won’t take any medicine they gave me unless it’s a serious issue that can take my life like cancer or diabetes. my mom has diabetes, she was using medicine they gave her, not going any better. then she stopped, she changed her remedies to a herbal alternative. she started to drink clitoria or we call it “telang” in my country every single morning. went to check her health and went much much better. idk why tbh. not my personal experience but that’s what i’ve seen from my closest one.

If you are, why not use the normal medicine?

well, because i can make it on my own, why not?

good for you then

i also got a list like this in my notebook!
