I Am Shaman Review

i am shaman 254x300 I Am Shaman ReviewWhen it comes to pur­chas­ing herbs online, you should really trust the ven­dor you are pur­chas­ing from. I have used IAmShaman.com for my exotic herbal needs for over 4 years now and have noth­ing neg­a­tive to say about them. The prod­ucts are very high qual­ity, just as promised. My orders have always been processed quickly (within a day if placed dur­ing busi­ness hours) and I receive my order within 3 days of plac­ing it.

I Am Shaman offers plants and herbs that can­not be pur­chased from health food stores, actu­ally nowhere locally in my town. I com­pletely rec­om­mend I Am Shaman if you are look­ing for qual­ity prod­uct from peo­ple you can trust. With this ven­dor, you can pur­chase prod­ucts like kava, kratom, blue lily, amanita, fly agaric, san pedro, morn­ing glory and any other entheogen you can imagine.

Per­son­ally, I have pur­chased their Kratom (which they are very well known for), Kava Kava, Aman­i­tas and Blue Lily. I was very pleased with the qual­ity of all the prod­ucts a numer­ous amount of times.

Pharmaceuticals vs. Herbs

March 8th, 2010 | 8 Comments | Posted in Natural Health, Plants & Herbs

pill body 300x300 Pharmaceuticals vs. HerbsIn today’s cul­ture, mil­lions of peo­ple are pre­scribed phar­ma­ceu­ti­cal med­ica­tion for all types of con­di­tions and ill­nesses when there are herbal med­i­cines avail­able. Phar­ma­ceu­ti­cals, also referred to as med­i­cine or med­ica­tion can be described as any chem­i­cal sub­stance intended for use in med­i­cine. Herbal reme­dies, also referred to as home­opa­thy or herbal sup­ple­ments are alter­nate med­i­cines that are com­posed of only nat­ural ingre­di­ents like plants and herbs.
It is sci­en­tif­i­cally proven that many herbs on the mar­ket can and do pro­vide effec­tive treat­ment for cer­tain ill­nesses and ail­ments. While most doc­tors sit in their office and write pre­scrip­tions for phar­ma­ceu­ti­cal drugs all day long, they could be mak­ing an effort to try and help the con­di­tion with herbal reme­dies. Peo­ple don’t real­ize what doc­tors are doing to them by pre­scrib­ing them the chem­i­cals to “cure” them. In many cases, pre­scrip­tion drugs do more harm in the long run; whether the drug cause seri­ous dam­age to your inter­nal organs, or the drugs them­selves cause you to become depen­dant on con­sum­ing them. For exam­ple, in the United States and in most other coun­tries, Heroin is ille­gal, though doc­tors are able to pre­scribe a syn­thetic ver­sion of it to peo­ple who say they’re in pain.

Herbal sup­ple­ments do not cause depen­dency when tak­ing them. Instead of sup­ply­ing a patient with mor­phine, hydrocodone or oxy­codone, they should be able to try a med­i­cine that is native to the Earth like Cham­momile, Kava, Brome­lain, Horse­tail, Valer­ian or even St. Johns Wort. There are many Dietary Sup­ple­ments that are a com­bi­na­tion of herbs such as Curamin© which includes DLPA, Boswl­lia, Cur­cumin, and Nat­tok­i­nase which are all one-hundred per­cent nat­ural medicines.

On the con­trary, med­i­cines that doc­tors are giv­ing out are not the only med­i­cines that are caus­ing peo­ple prob­lems. Aceta­minophen, Ibupro­fen and Naproxen are all over –the-counter NSAID’s or Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs that are avail­able to any­one who needs them. With­out proper edu­ca­tion, these drugs which are “safe enough to sell to every­one in the United States” can cause seri­ous prob­lems with the liver, includ­ing death.

Over­all, the main dif­fer­ence between drugs that are being pro­duced by phar­ma­cies and being dis­trib­uted by doc­tors and stores around the world is safety. In the United States alone, over 80 mil­lion Aspirin pills are used each day. Con­tin­u­ous or over use of Aspirin can cause liver dis­ease and even liver fail­ure. Aspirin is syn­the­sized from Wil­low Bark, a very com­mon tree that is also avail­able as com­pletely nat­ural herbal sup­ple­ment, which in turn is not nearly as dan­ger­ous as tak­ing Aspirin or other NSAID’s.

While some herbal sup­ple­ments can­not achieve the relief or goal that some phar­ma­ceu­ti­cals can, a com­bi­na­tion of herbs and mod­er­ate pre­scrip­tion drugs can achieve the desired effect while avoid­ing dam­age to the body as well as dependency.
