Top 5 Herbs

Top 5 Herbal Remedies

While all herbal remedies can have spectacular results, some herbs appear to get more attention than others. Below are what I believe to be the Top 5 Herbs, which are available in most health-food stores and supermarkets:

* Chamomile is a popular variety of tea, but the chamomile plant is also used in a number of herbal remedies. To learn how to use chamomile to treat anxiety, cramping, and muscle pain, read Chamomile: Herbal Remedies.

* While echinacea was used centuries ago by the Native Americans, today many people take this herb to help fight off colds. For more info, read Echinacea: Herbal Remedies.

* Ginkgo, or ginkgo biloba, has received a lot of attention lately for its ability to improve circulation and brain activity.

* Ginseng has been used for thousands of years, but has recently found favor with a public looking for a natural energy-boost. (for more info Siberian Ginseng)

* Many people have looked to St Johns Wort,as an herbal alternative to prescription medications for anxiety and depression. (more info St Johns Wort)
