Great post and wonderful discussion. We do live in a society where new 'diseaseification' seems to occur every week and treatment versus prevention takes precedence. A few years ago, I had the good fortune to discover ethnobotany and listen to great speakers and work they were doing to connect the current to the past. Technology gives us new tools to understand the 'why', but there's no doubt that ancient wisdom had it right, more often than not. I've done a bit of study of TCM and Ayurveda and there's got to be something there with over 5000 years of written history and experience.

5000 years of history is hard to ignore!!! Happy you got into ethnobotony, isn’t it so fascinating?
What I like to see is used by our allopathic medicine system as backup for acute conditions but come from a holistic place allying on tradition system like Ayurveda and TCM.
