Discussion»Questions»Health and Wellness» How do you think people -thousands of years ago discovered that the roots, bark, leaves etc of some plants have certain health benefits?
Yes or digging up the root of a plant (ginseng) and find it gives one energy to keep going before starving to death.
Laboratory testing -probably funded by Big (capitalist) Pharma- shows that many herbs, roots et al have no kind of benefits at all.
