One of the main choices in handling the degenerative disease is by using natural materials (Herb). This is based on herb medicine characters, which are reconstructive and increasing the body metabolism. Herb medicine is more familiar with human body, because they have the same character that is organic; instead of chemical materials that has a non-organic character. That’s why the use of herb materials is could be maximum on the human body and the side effect caused by it is relatively small. Therefore, in the last few years, medication by using the natural materials has increased, as same time as the “back to nature” moments is established. The “back to nature” moments is sounding increasingly because of the negative effects caused by using chemical medicines which happened directly or cumulatively.
The health disturbance in the society is usually caused by the degenerative diseases that rapidly happen due to the below several reasons, which are:
- Unhealthy of eat pattern
- Undisciplined of life pattern
- Effects of free radicals
If a doctor could use 4-5 kinds’ medicines to the patient, it is not impossible if he is finally giving 10 kinds of medicines to the patient, right? If that’s happened, so it would have a great potential in causing a disturbance to the healthy organ. Therefore, if we only dismissed the disease’s sign, it would cause another disturbance in the body that caused complications.
The using of chemical medicines has also a potential to create a resistance if we use it for a very long time. This is can be seen by someone who is often to buy chemical medicines which the real side effect of it is unknown yet.
However, we can not blame it to all of the chemical medicines, since sometimes in the special condition it is necessary to use it. For example, in the case of a chronic disease that needs immediate action and result, the chemical medicines holds the main role on it. But, for the case of degenerative disease it would be better if use herb medicines, since it is important to recover the body metabolism in a long term of time.
Mainly character of herb medicines is causative, which is to heal the caused of disease. It is different with chemical medicines that focused on the symptomatic medication only. Actually, the chemical medicines made from natural materials, but due to the complication of its production and needs an expensive cost; the synthesis of it was made because it is use one kind of chemical material. It is different with physiochemical that made from one kind of a plant which contains a lot of chemical substances.
Generally, herb medicines made from medicine plants has double effects. But, it would not be caused any danger if we use it in a correct way. For example, the onion has a lot of functions such as for hypothensive, to reduce cholesterol, as anti bacteria, to reduce blood coagulation.
Many kinds of that pharmacologist’s effect will not make any danger to the body since the herb medicines contain a lot of substances that has particular character. If somebody is using the onion for hypertension, so it would be possible that the cholesterol is decreased and all at once it is also could smoothen the blood circulation.
The point is herb medication can be use as an option and it is a part of the healing process of a disease beside a medical method that uses chemical medicines.
