Herbs

Herbs are small flowering plants. They have been used for ages by humans for the treatment of diseases and for nutrition. There are hundreds of different kinds of herbs, each with its own special properties. 

Many of today's medicines such as aspirin and morphine have their origins on active elements found in herbs. Aspirin comes from willow trees while morphine from the seeds of the opium poppy. Actually, many herbs by their own can cure many diseases including cancers and cardiovascular disease. For example, Graviola contains natural compounds that have cytotoxic activity to prevent abnormal cellular division. Thus it is used for immune support and cleaning abnormal tissue growth. Hawthorn berry, on the other hand, is a tonic for all heart related issues. It nourishes the heart, increases oxygen flow to the heart muscle and improves circulation.

Some herbs, on the other hand, are renowned for their unique ability to maintain metabolism and lessen appetite. Thus they can help obese reduce body weight.
