Herbs are nutrients, and your body will use what it needs from them. However, herbs should not be thought of as a miracle drug that forces your body to do something or stop doing something that it wouldn’t do naturally. Herbs are your assistants.
They need your cooperation in order to get the best results, so think of herbs as your partners in health. Not that downing your handful of herbal pills with your beer and pizza doesn’t have any value at all, but your herbs will be better utilized if you take them with a proper diet. What do I mean by a “proper diet”?
The simplest way to think about eating healthy is to think whole, raw, fresh, vineripened, organic fruits and vegetables; grains such as rice, millet, barley, and rye (don’t eat wheat as your only grain—mix them up!); and organic, raw (if possible) dairy products in moderation.
