Herbs of The Kitchen
In an attempt to live healthier lifestyles, individuals are looking for ways to enhance their health. Proper diet and exercise are key to optimal health. In today's society many resort to "popping" a pill in the hopes of becoming healthier. As a natural health professional my focus is on nutrition and the benefits of using whole foods for better health.
With the rise in popularity of complimentary/alternative medicine the practice of incorporating herbal supplementation into ones diet has become wide-spread. There are many benefits of herbal supplementation but at the same time there can be health risks. The following is a presentation that will outline some basic information on using herbal supplements as well as looking at a few fresh herbs that may be found right in your own kitchen and understanding their nutritional and medicinal benefits. Using fresh herbs in your daily meal preparation is an excellent way of boosting your nutritional intake, receiving some medicinal benefits and adding an array of flavors to your food.
Always keep in mind that prior to beginning any herbal supplementation program it is best to seek the advice of a certified/licensed healthcare professional to ensure that it is right for you.
