I like this guy’s thorough common sense approach.
Contrary to public belief plants are very powerful medicines.
Some work gently and are probably universally safe, but some also have significant effects that may not be helpful and might even hurt some.
A great example of this is the Mimosa tree.
Popular to talk about because it’s easy to find and deals with common ailments (depression and stress), but it causes problems for 1 in 4.
Chinese medicine knows this and warns practitioners and users. YouTube video makers? Not so much.
