  • what do you use that aloe vera for?

    I'm not against pharmaceuticals, or doctors, but for most of my life doctors have been prohibitively expensive

    can relate to this lol

    I have a good paying job now with good insurance

    good for you!

  • time effectiveness doesn't matter for me, but if you're talking about the effectiveness about the meds especially for little issues, for me, it's the same. i just don't like something instant, i do enjoy the process of everything that i do though. just asking for opinion here, all opinions are welcome 👌

  • I feel OP are fishing for something else though like "modern medicine bad/big pharma bad"

    no, not really tbh. i also take their meds when it gets to serious issues.

  • are you choosing the plants that have those same chemicals when you choose a remedy?

    yes, i'd research what my doctor told me to take and find the alternative. like example: if they told me to take paracetamol because a headache, i'd choose ginger instead and go to sleep after. as far as i know, paracetamol has side effects to make us sleepy and makes us wanna take a nap, which is the natural way to treat a headache. ginger also has this effect. i won't take any medicine they gave me unless it's a serious issue that can take my life like cancer or diabetes. my mom has diabetes, she was using medicine they gave her, not going any better. then she stopped, she changed her remedies to a herbal alternative. she started to drink clitoria or we call it "telang" in my country every single morning. went to check her health and went much much better. idk why tbh. not my personal experience but that's what i've seen from my closest one.

    If you are, why not use the normal medicine?

    well, because i can make it on my own, why not?

  • yes, i think my question should be more specific. i'm agreeing on this. i do my own research about switching to alternative from conventional medicine. mostly, i'd go to a doctor if i'm not feeling well (it's free in my country if we just wanna check up) and i will ask about my diagnosis, if it's not a serious issue then i'd look for the alternative remedies.
