Why people use herbs is as varied as what types of care people drive, some use them for nutritional purposes, so for healing and some people use them to replace pharmaceutical medicines.

We will also cover the various classes of application, herbal studies and efficacy, what herbs are commonly used for what and how you can find the information you need to better assist a client.
