home remedies - facts or quacks?

myths and legends often have their foundation in a grain truth. So I wondered whether home remedies, alternative treatments and folk remedies could also be based on the truth. Let us first try to define the term home remedies.

There is no place like at home

The name itself says that a home remedy is a home remedy that is administered at home! Prescription drugs are often administered as a remedy at home, so we have to dig a little deeper. If you think of home remedies, don't you think of any kind of healing or treatment that is outside of modern medicine? Me too. Let's take a look at some options.

The holistic view

The dictionary defines holistic medicine as an approach to medical care that emphasizes the study of all aspects of a person's health, including physical, psychological, social, economic and cultural factors. The holistic definition is very wide and could apply to many medical approaches.

peach & herbs?

Many people combine herbs with home remedies. The definition of herbal remedies is a plant or a plant part or an extract or a mixture of it that is used to prevent, relieve or healing diseases, including herbal medicine. This sounds like a good definition, although home remedies usually include more than vegetable remedies. What's next?

folk medicine

folk medicine is defined as traditional medicine, especially if it is practiced by people who are isolated from modern medical services and are usually used on an empirical basis. Now we'll get there somewhere! The old hands practiced medicine, which was not based exclusively on plants when modern medicine was not available. Let us immerse yourself a little deeper into the dictionary.

Finally at home

Finally, we find the definition of the dictionary of home remedies: an simply prepared drug or tonic, often by unproven effectiveness, which is administered without a prescription or professional supervision. So - it is a cure that was produced outside the area of ​​modern medicine, is it not limited to herbs, but has an unproven effectiveness? I do not agree. I can prove that some of the simplest home remedies have led to some of our greatest medical breakthroughs (but that's another article).

Is that your final answer?

let us be agreed on the above research to define a home remedy as follows:

A remedy based on experience or even random remedy that was made by simple people from herbs, plants or other available ingredients when modern medical help was not (or has not yet been developed).

This is my answer and I will stay with it!
