I am interested in "alternative" remedies- sometimes the old ways, sometimes newer stuff- because I feel that we have gotten much too far from the barnyard, from the land, from our history.
Medicine threw the baby out with the bathwater in the beginning of the 20th century- as they began having breakthroughs and developing modern drugs/procedures, they forgot everything else.
I try to assess whether any given condition can be addressed naturally, homeopathically or dietarily first. Some things need allopathic medicine- e.g. burns, sepsis, really dramatic stuff. Other things where our bodies are out of "balance," like PCOS, I've had better success self treating herbally and eating a traditional (pre industrial) diet.
Good luck in your journey!
