🌿 Why Plant Medicine Works 🌿
I’ve had a few questions recently about the products I’ve been using from and the changes I’ve noticed, they’ve been genuinely significant.
So, why do these natural herbal blends make such a difference? I asked Yvette from The Lavender Practice to explain, and here’s what she shared 👇
✨ Plant medicine works because nature designed it to support the body’s own healing systems.
Natural plant compounds are rich in anti-inflammatories and antioxidants that protect our cells and DNA, while helping to prevent the kinds of imbalances that can lead to illness.
🩵 Plants also nourish the gut, the foundation of immune health and hormone balance, as they’re naturally full of prebiotics, probiotics, and polyphenols. This helps strengthen the gut lining, reduce bloating and fatigue, and boost overall vitality.
💚 Many herbs also support the liver, our body’s main detox organ, helping it clear hormones, toxins, and waste more efficiently. When the gut and liver are in sync, hormones balance, mood lifts, and energy levels rise.
🌸 Unlike synthetic drugs that mimic plant compounds, whole-plant medicine provides a natural, balanced blend of active ingredients that the body recognises and uses safely.
Ultimately, plants help restore balance and nourish every cell, tissue, and organ in the body, working with us, not against us.
