Question

1 The use of home remedies has a long history. Natural home remedies have been around hundreds, and in some cases, thousands of years. They come from folk traditions of medicine and therapy. Before modern medicine, treatments were passed down from generation to generation. These treatments typically included the use of native plants, such as flowers, herbs, fruits, and vegetables. Traditional medicine is based on skills and practices developed through the experiences of people long before modern medicine came into existence.
2 Today, the use of home remedies is on the rise. Many people are concerned with potential side effects of modern medicines, so they are turning to traditional medicine for alternative treatment. In some areas of the world, folk medicine never went away. For example, in some rural communities in Asia and Africa, more than 80 percent of the population relies on traditional treatment as their primary form of health care.
3 Herbalism, ethnomedicine, and medical anthropology are fields of modern medicine that are dedicated to the study of traditional medicine. Some of these methods have been proven to be effective by modern research. Much of this research focuses on the antibacterial and anti-inflammatory traits of many common plants.
4 Home remedies are inexpensive and natural options for many medical issues. Most home remedies are not medically proven, so one should always consult a doctor for any medical issue. However, using folk medicine to help relieve certain symptoms can help in some situations. For example, the following home remedies are still practiced and have become common in modern culture.
5 Chicken soup has long been a home remedy for relieving the symptoms of upper respiratory infections. Honey, garlic, and tea have long been used in the treatment of cold and flu symptoms. Honey can help relieve a cough, and garlic can help a sore throat. Garlic has antimicrobial properties that also fight pain and irritation. Linden flower tea can help reduce a fever. The tea stimulates the part of the brain that controls temperature. It also makes the body sweat, which can reduce a fever.
6 For stomach-related problems, ginger and peppermint are common home remedies. Ginger is used to treat nausea. It works best to infuse warm water with ginger; then strain it and freeze it. Nibbling on the ginger ice chips can help relieve nausea. Peppermint is also used to treat an upset stomach. It helps kill bacteria in the gut that causes bloating and discomfort.
7 Willow tree bark tea helps get rid of headaches. It contains similar chemicals as the pain relievers in aspirin. The gel from the aloe vera plant helps soothe the pain of a burn. The gel protects the nerve endings on the skin from the air. Foot odor can be banished by soaking feet in vinegar and water, or in black tea. Both treatments kill smelly bacteria.
8 Every culture has a tradition of home remedies. People have trusted folk medicine for centuries. The fact that many of these remedies cannot be scientifically proven doesn't seem to matter to the people who say they work.

Answer:

Healing with medicinal plants is as old as mankind itself. The connection between man and his search for drugs in nature dates from the far past, of which there is ample evidence from various sources: written documents, preserved monuments, and even original plant medicines. Awareness of medicinal plants usage is a result of the many years of struggles against illnesses due to which man learned to pursue drugs in barks, seeds, fruit bodies, and other parts of the plants. Contemporary science has acknowledged their active action, and it has included in modern pharmacotherapy a range of drugs of plant origin, known by ancient civilizations and used throughout the millennia. The knowledge of the development of ideas related to the usage of medicinal plants as well as the evolution of awareness has increased the ability of pharmacists and physicians to respond to the challenges that have emerged with the spreading of professional services in facilitation of man's life.

Ever since ancient times, in search for rescue for their disease, the people looked for drugs in nature. The beginnings of the medicinal plants’ use were instinctive, as is the case with animals.[1] In view of the fact that at the time there was not sufficient information either concerning the reasons for the illnesses or concerning which plant and how it could be utilized as a cure, everything was based on experience. In time, the reasons for the usage of specific medicinal plants for treatment of certain diseases were being discovered; thus, the medicinal plants’ usage gradually abandoned the empiric framework and became founded on explicatory facts. Until the advent of iatrochemistry in 16th century, plants had been the source of treatment and prophylaxis.[2] Nonetheless, the decreasing efficacy of synthetic drugs and the increasing contraindications of their usage make the usage of natural drugs topical again.

Answer 2

Answer:

La curación con plantas medicinales es tan antigua como la humanidad misma. La conexión entre el hombre y su búsqueda de drogas en la naturaleza data del pasado lejano, de la que hay abundante evidencia de diversas fuentes: documentos escritos, monumentos conservados e incluso medicamentos vegetales originales. La conciencia del uso de plantas medicinales es el resultado de los muchos años de luchas contra las enfermedades debido a las cuales el hombre aprendió a perseguir drogas en la cortezas, semillas, cuerpos frutales y otras partes de las plantas. La ciencia contemporánea ha reconocido su acción activa, y ha incluido en la farmacoterapia moderna una gama de fármacos de origen vegetal, conocidos por civilizaciones antiguas y utilizados a lo largo de los milenios. El conocimiento del desarrollo de ideas relacionadas con el uso de plantas medicinales, así como la evolución de la conciencia ha aumentado la capacidad de farmacéuticos y médicos para responder a los retos que han surgido con la difusión de servicios profesionales en la facilitación de la vida del hombre.

Desde tiempos antiguos, en busca de rescate de su enfermedad, la gente buscó drogas en la naturaleza. Los comienzos del uso de las plantas medicinales fueron instintivos, como es el caso de los animales. [1] En vista del hecho de que en ese momento no había suficiente información ni sobre las razones de las enfermedades o sobre qué planta y cómo podía ser utilizada como cura, todo se basaba en la experiencia. Con el tiempo, se estaban descubriendo las razones del uso de plantas medicinales específicas para el tratamiento de ciertas enfermedades; por lo tanto, el uso de las plantas medicinales abandonó gradualmente el marco empírico y se basó en hechos explicativos. Hasta el advenimiento de la iatrochemistry en el siglo XVI, las plantas habían sido la fuente de tratamiento y profilaxis. [2] Sin embargo, la disminución de la eficacia de las drogas sintéticas y las crecientes contraindicaciones de su uso hacen que el uso de drogas naturales tópicos de nuevo
