Can children or the elderly take Herbal Medicine?
When prescribed by a qualified herbalist herbal medicine is completely safe for children. It represents a very good option for those wishing to avoid the side effects or addictive nature of many drugs. Herbal medicine is also a very suitable option for the elderly, as the body is much better able to metabolise the natural constituents. Herbal medicine can also be very helpful to treat the side effects, like constipation, of orthodox drugs.
