Put Your Health in Your Own Hands

There are a growing number of Americans who are taking charge of their health through the use of herbs, supplements, healing foods, books, and websites. Although largely beneficial, one concern is there is so much information from such a wide variety of philosophies, ideals, and motives, that it can be confusing. Now there is GreenMed, a free natural and alternative toxicology database with over 16,000 research-based articles.

"GreenMed is dedicated to bringing the public information on the science behind natural healing methods, as well as to make available research on the inherent dangers associated with the use of chemicals in our food, drugs, water and environment".

This site is thorough and covers everything from herbs and supplements (safety, benefits, history) and just about every disease and health condition imaginable.
