Herbalism has an enormous number of uses. I couldn't remotely list off number of plants that have easy medical uses. From headaches and cramps too anxiety and insomnia natural medicine can help a huge number of different problems. I use various plants including kratom, weed, ginger, green tea, valerian ect on a regular basis.
That said to ignore modern medicine is asinine at best, sorry you had to grow up like that. If you have any specific questions about herbs or remedies I can try to help.
Is this safe/worth taking?:
And is Brahmi safe and worth using for concentration?
Looks safe, as to worth taking I doubt it. A regular multi vitamin probably has all the same beneficial stuff for a quarter of the price.
I've taken Bacopa/brahmi before, didn't personally notice any benefits or side effects. Everything I've read about it seems safe though.
Thanks!
Anecdotally I have heard one report that Brahmi is life-changing for one person who was having difficulty with ADHD meds and ADHD itself but that's only one data point so don't overstate its importance.
Bacopa is an aquatic/semi-aquatic perennial plant and it's actually really easy to grow. If you get a waterproof pot or large container (food service bucket/kids swimming pool/upcycled cooler etc.) you can grow it in that. It grows readily from cuttings. I could imagine that it would thrive in a little kratky hydroponic setup too.
