No matter what the healing method, people in every part of the world take medicine, and all cultures have a tradition that attributes therapeutic powers to particular plants, minerals, and parts of animals.
Complementary therapies have their roots in such traditional systems, in which the cause of illness is commonly attributed to an imbalance within an individual or to the influence of external factors.
The mouth is literally a gateway between the external and the internal world, and there is a certain magic in the way we feel hungry, eat, and are satisfied, and in which food provides energy and enables growth and repair. The primitive urge to eat extends to the way in which we regard food as a medicine and take medicinal substances to heal ourselves.
Many medicinal therapies from around the world subscribe to a theory that the internal organs have a direct effect on health. They also share a consensus that when these organs are weak, overactive, or uncoordinated, illness can occur. There is a tremendous variety of ideas and different medicinal substances involved in this richly disparate group of therapies. Together, these treatment systems draw on experience from every part of the planet, from China to the Amazonian jungle. They are also enriched by a vast bank of knowledge, from the ancient traditions of Indian Ayurvedic medicine to the latest biochemical research into nutritional science carried out in the United States.
