"Nature's Medicine Cabinet: The Power of Edible Plants for Health and Well-being"

When we go outside we see everything that is around us in nature. Do we ever think about the benefits we have in nature? Do we ever consider researching the plants and flowers around us to see what they can be used for? Do we consider researching the products we purchase in the store when buying groceries? The answer is no. We buy processed foods not thinking about how they can harm us. Processed foods have lots of salt and preservatives that we do not know what's in them. We have been told what to eat and how much, but now that we are grown, we can choose what to eat and what not to eat.

Many companies deliver food to you when you join these programs advertised on television, but the question is this, do we know how old it is? This is why it is important to read labels on food items to see the expiration date.

Gardening is another way to have fresh fruits and vegetables. You know what kind of soil they are planted in. You know what you are putting on them to take care of them properly instead of using chemicals that could make you sick. Gardening is another way to save money when shopping for groceries. You will not have to worry about buying vegetables and fruits unless there is something you need that you did not plant. Fresh fruits and vegetables are good to have on hand because it is a good way to eat healthy when you want a healthy snack.

For instance, if you are out in nature camping, you will want to know what plants are good for certain things. It is good to have your mobile device with you because you can look up what a plant is see what it can be used for, and see if it is edible or not. This is another way to be safe out in the wilderness camping. Nature provides us with lots of healthy things, but we just have to know what they are to use them.

There are plants used for medicine, such as Aloe Vera. It is used for cuts, scrapes, burns, mosquito bites, cold sores, and lots of other things. It is easy to plant indoors, or outdoors. There are products on the market with Aloe Vera in them. Nothing is like the real thing though that's grown in nature.. There will be more to come. Welcome to Edible Plants and Flowers.
