Of course synthetic drugs are important and have saved many lives. There are often new breakthroughs in medicine that bring hope and help for the sick, which is great. But do we need to use synthetic drugs for all of our ailments. Synthetic drugs are expensive and many have unwanted and sometimes hard to deal with side effects. So although synthetic drugs have their place, many people are going back to using natural remedies that the human race has been using for thousands of years. The kitchen is a great place to start when looking for home remedies as it will possibly contain many of the natural medicines that you would need to deal with many common ailments. By reading up a bit on natural remedies you will be able to equip yourself to handle many illnesses from common colds to toddlers with colic or diarrhoea. Natural medicines basically use the natural chemicals that are present within herbs, spices and other natural foods to tackle the offending foreign element in the body that is causing infection or pain. This is as opposed to flushing the body with hundreds of milligrams of strong, unnatural chemicals in the form of antibiotics. Antibiotics are necessary in many conditions, but unfortunately they are being overused in recent times and many mothers of young children will request antibiotics for their child each time they are ill. When for the overall health of your child you are best to avoid antibiotics unless they are really necessary. Antibiotics do kill the bad bacteria that are causing the illness, but at the same time they also kill the friendly, good bacteria that our bodies need, which can make you more vulnerable to becoming sick again. For the long term, it is much healthier for your body to use natural remedies in the case of colds, flu's, and many more ailments. There are many long term illnesses that natural remedies may also be very beneficial for without giving those bad side effects that modern medicine will give. Although for serious illnesses it is not recommended to rely completely on natural remedies without the advice of a general practitioner as some illnesses will require synthetic medicines and could possibly be life threatening without it. Often you may be able to combine both modern medicine and natural medicine in your treatment. Natural therapies are also very good for maintaining good health and building a strong immune system to reduce the chance of becoming ill. Natural remedies can effectively be used to treat a number of illnesses through regular usage. It can be beneficial to boost your child's immune system, to prevent hair loss, treat acne, dandruff and aches and pains and minor burns. There are many uses for natural remedies so do some research and find out just what is in your kitchen that can help you deal with some of those ailments.
