To my knowledge, the Homeopathic definition for me was botanical medicine, or medical herbalism, ot herbal medicine. So thx for your input motivemagus. What I meant was then herbal medicine, not homeopathic medicine.
I found some food for thought, no pun intended, in wikipedia:
On January 18, 2008, the Botanic Gardens Conservation International (representing botanic gardens in 120 countries) stated that “400 medicinal plants are at risk of extinction, from over-collection and deforestation, threatening the discovery of future cures for disease.” These included Yew trees (the bark is used for cancer drugs, paclitaxel); Hoodia (from Namibia, source of weight loss drugs); half of Magnolias (used as Chinese medicine for 5,000 years to fight cancer, dementia and heart disease); and Autumn crocus (for gout). The group also found that 5 billion people benefit from traditional plant-based medicine for health care[204]
