Sometimes a bit of common sense triump against these kind of news and researchers. i.e., it is better safe than being sorry:
Now, they will also come with terms and conditions like wind speed, time, distance, etc. As if it is ground checking for cricket match.
See the information and dates, that included WHO:
28-May-21 WHO Was Wrong About Coronavirus Being Airborne, But Why ?
The World Health Organization ignored advice from aerosol scientists, but that's not the only reason why it took so long to accept the facts about Covid.

> The first one is asking for subscription to know the chemical compound!!
For me it is a huge list of manufacturers assoicated with herbal medicines. That was what I was only mentioning. Not original reserach articles and databases to such studies.
> The second one is from 2008 from our website!! And I know both Jon and Ted (Jon left, Ted is probably in New Zealand) and they basically wrote about keeping an open mind!!
LOL
Isn't that great thing to hear
Yeah, I liked it when I saw that link
They mentioned an example too !
So, how about all of us having an open mind now !
> The third one is about "how to approach herb analysis for dummies"
By some researchers. And Chinese are big in to herbal medicines. So, of course there will be articles and researches.
> Gave up and didn't read the fourth one.
Many herbal products made by Big Pharma
Some people who buy supplements to avoid Big Pharma drug companies may find themselves doing business with Big Herba, instead.
Should have read it
About that professor who did appendectomy in such and awfulway, am seriously against such ideas. Already mentioned am against such moronity and politics.
> opium is widely prescribed for diarrhoea in Ayurveda without any atropine like substance to prevent abuse.
Diarrhoea generally get cured within few days at the max.
Whatever the scientific reasons are, Opium addition have not reached serious level issue pan India till date.
A basic internet search will list many modern medicinal compounds which were isolated from herbs.
Current drug discovery from plants mainly relied on bioactivity-guided fractionation and led to isolation of many important anticancer drugs such as paclitaxel, camptothecin etc.
The first commercial pure natural product introduced for therapeutic use is morphine marketed by Merck in 1826, and the first semi-synthetic pure drug aspirin, based on a natural product salicin isolated from Salix alba, was introduced by Bayer in 1899. This led to the isolation of early drugs such as cocaine, codeine, digitoxin, quinine and pilocarpine, of which some are still in use and several other recent plant derived compounds, which have undergone development and have been marketed as drugs which include Paclitaxel from Taxus brevifolia for lung, ovarian and breast cancer, Artemisinin from traditional Chinese plant Artemisia annua to combat multidrug resistant malaria, Silymarin extracted from the seeds of Silybum marianum for the treatment of liver diseases.
The alkaloid, forskolin from Coleus forskohlii and phytochemicals from Stephania glabra, are now being rediscovered as adenylate cyclase and nitric oxide activators, which may help in preventing conditions including obesity and atherosclerosis.
Last decade few plant derived drugs have been launched include Arteether, endoperoxide sesquiterpene lactone and semisynthetic natural product derived from Artemisinin used in malarial treatment, Nitisinone derived from natural product Leptospermone (Callistemon citrinus) is used in treatment of antityrosinaemia, galantamine is a natural alkaloid (obtained from Galanthus nivalis) for Alzhemer's, apomorphine is a semisynthetic compound derived from morphine (Papaver somniferum) used in Parkinson's disease, Tiotropium a derivative of atropine from Atropa belladonna in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, Dronabinol and Cannabidiol obtained from cannabis plant (Cannabis sativa) and Capsaicin active compound from Capsicum annuum are used as pain relievers.
As mentioned earlier, I will prefer to keep mind open than talking blind. All we need is thorough scientific research, that is all I want to say.
