Five weeds that make better medicines than any pharmaceutical drug

Five weeds that make better medicines than any pharmaceutical drug:



(NaturalNews) Most people will agree that weeds can cause a large amount of damage in the garden. For example, invasive weeds like Johnson grass and cogongrass expand rapidly and choke other low-growing flora. Parasitical weeds that depend upon a host for sustenance, such as dodders and witchweed, are even more destructive. Then, of course, there are the noxious weeds, such as poison ivy and poison sumac, which contribute to little except worry amongst parents with small children. These are plants that deserve to be called "weeds."

A lot of plants that are called weeds, however, are less deserving. Some of them, such as lamb's quarter, contain strong, penetrating roots that bring beneficial nitrogen and trace minerals from the subsoil to the surface. Other plants, such as those listed below, contain considerable medicinal benefits -- far more so, in fact, than any pharmaceutical drugs.
