Herbs are just plants by definition
But there are some with more nutrition
You won't be told by your physician
Some herbs will give you more cognition
But be wise or you'll need a mortician
Some herbs are capsules and some are tea
Which one is the best? Don't ask me
Whether they're in a tea or a pill
They must be used with wisdom and skill
With some herbs you can catch a fix
But be advised that some don't mix
The top ten herbs are listed below
Don't expect any more rhyming though
Chamomile treats inflammation of skin & mucous membranes
Echinacea reduces the effects of cold & flu
Feverfew is for migraine headaches & muscle spasms
Garlic lowers blood cholesterol & pressure, treats infections
Ginger relieves stomach cramps, nausea & vomiting
Ginkgo Biloba treats asthma & bronchitis, Improves circulation
Ginseng counteracts fatigue & stress, improves mental functions
Saw Palmetto diminishes urinary difficulties from BPH
St. John's Wort speeds wound healing, treats depression & more
Valerian combats anxiety & nervous disorders of sleep
Thanks Spock the vegan. I actually kinda love this useful poem!
Three factors that make this wonderful to read, one the style and rhythm, two the educational aspect three the humor and entertainment, of which I would rate exceedingly high, although I knew the benefits of several of these herbs, I have been ignorant of most. In addition Yarrow is fantastic for stomach-ache, tooth aches and gastro problems. Thank you for recommending me some more. Awesome work
I like how your spreading awareness with this delightful poem. Naturally a lot of people still do not know the effects. Great job

Very useful information, actually. I, like Kevin Patrick, knew some of these, but not all. One of my brothers at one time was taking one of them to improve his memory. I asked him if it was working, and he said 'I think so- -when I remember to take it! ' By the way, are you really a vegan? What's the difference between a vegan and a vegetarian?
A vegetarian eats eggs and uses dairy products, a vegan doesn't. A Vegan lives on a planet orbiting the star Vega.
