    Pharmaceuticals SUCK.. they are way overly expensive! Plus unhealthy! For example, one medicine will help calm your symptoms for your disease while causing for example your pancreas to make you get diabetes.. they get money to make you sick! Herbs are so much cheaper, healthier. better in every way.

    Anyone who says "herbal medicine" has probably never had a life threatening condition that needed to be treated quickly and aggressively. But for overall health, a lot of herbs are good for you. They just take longer to work and aren't as effective for most conditions.

    Traditional medicine is herbal medicine. I think you mean conventional or western medicine for its opposite.

    And it depends entirely on what your ailment is and how you choose to treat it. Do you want to mask the symptoms or treat the cause? Western medicine is good for a quick fix, which is sometimes a nice relief. While herbal remedies are more gentle on the body and work to prevent the problem from continuing.

    Pick your poison wisely.

    I would imagine that a combination of the two would be the best of both worlds, wouldn't you?

    If you like drugs, go see a doctor, cuz that's what he will give ya. I don't like drugs so I don't go to the doctor. :P
