Not long ago Father said to me, "herbs are not medicine". What did this say to me? It is to say plants, trees, shrubs are not medicine, they are food. Martin was first to become stressed that our "food supply" is so limited in variety. The seed catalogs and stores have such a limited number of "food" seeds that Martin could see a need for "broadening our horizons". As I looked through Richter's herb catalog for the past several years, I began to realize they note that in other counties (perhaps of origin), what we are receiving as herbs are utilized as food.
One could deduce from that herbs are food. So there we have it! There is a whole world of more unusual food available out there. It is our firm belief that a varied diet will maintain health. This would, of course be a huge blow to a certain industry that drains the resources of The People as they become weaker.
Perhaps it is time to consider incorporating new-old foods into our meals and health back into our lives.
On a SunShiny day, may Peace, Joy and Love fill your day !
