Re: "Medicine Cabinet"
"which can be derived from..."
Okay -- but I have the strong sense that the whole plant--Or say, a plant extract that is concentrated (then perhaps mixed with another)would always be better than say one element in isolation--for example, how would you get the quercetin from the eucalyptus? what process is involved? What about making something yourself from onion and raw honey? (let's say) Wouldn't that be a lot easier, and have some unique qualities that simply aren't knowable? --> Qualities that are present when something is hardly altered.
I understand the high potency argument--I guess I haven't eyt altogther 'bought' it. I persist in this wierd certainty that
we were not meant to have to be able to get such things...
and that in fact, it's the SMALLEST possible doese, of anything, that is the tru healer--in the way it respects the body's own capapcities for incredible balance. Of course, one would have to NOT be bombarding the body with whatever is assailing it. (in terms of food, etc.)
