About the Course

There is strong demand for alternatives to pharmaceuticals for a variety of common illnesses due to concerns of safety, efficacy, and a desire
for more “natural” products. Despite this growing interest, “conventional” healthcare providers may have little to no knowledge about herbal
medicines, which is further compounded by the sometimes misleading information in the media and on the internet. This course provides the
necessary background for providers to begin to incorporate herbal medicines into their practice, particularly in regards to their therapeutic
properties, efficacy (or lack thereof), and safety concerns, including quality control and potential adverse effects. Continuing ...

I really liked this course. It's a nice introduction to the world of herbal medicine. It fulfilled a lot of my expectations on learning about specific herbal medications for different common conditions. I also learned a lot about the different preparations of botanicals. It also provides scientific evidence for its claims whenever available. However, I found some parts of the course oversimplified, such as Week 1's comparison of herbal medications and commercial medications. The course serves more as an introduction than anything, so don't expect to feel competent and prepared to prescribe botanicals upon finishing.

This course was very informative, I am always about learning so I will say that I think the only improvement I would make is to add more. Further the details into various aspects of how botanicals can help. Further the information on mental wellbeing. Perhaps add a section for first aid wound treatment using botanicals, things of those nature.

Thank you for this helpful course. 5/5 stars for people who are not health care professionals, however, 3.5/5 starts for people who are health care professionals.

The examples used are common and found everywhere, a person can easily find them.

Really liked the contents. However, I am not a fan of peer review, since there are a few that just give bad grades to be mean. If the idea is not to correct the assignments, better do a quiz.

This was a most excellent course! I am saddened that I can not complete course because the site will not allow my weekly tests to upload or be graded. Thanks so much.
