i've been thinking about how people approach health when they're feeling unwell. some folks prefer to go to a doctor or use pharmaceutical medicine from the pharmacy, while others choose herbal remedies or alternative treatments. personally, i prefer using herbal remedies because i believe that all the ingredients in pharmaceutical medicines ultimately come from nature, and we can find those remedies ourselves in plants. what about you?

edit: cmon guys it's not about the traditional vs modern treatment. just wanna know other's opinion about this..

I never said they were equally effective, I simply stated that it is not baseless, replying to an incredibly rude commenter who was extremely confident in their scoentifically wrong statement, thats why I mocked the commenter with the witchcraft part. Also I literally said 'there is stuff you cant simply cure with herbs'. If anyone thinks I valued the two equally they didnt read past the first 3 words of my comment.

People are so quick to start a witchhunt based on absolutely nothing. This is pretty sad...
