Learning About “Green Prescribing”
to Heal and Cure Illness
The UK and WHO (World Health Organization) were worried about the reoccurrence of Covid and have discovered this technique which is having greater effects than medication. They call it enhancing biodiversity and say it is critical to recovering from Covid-19, and even more severe diseases. Doctors in New Zealand were among the first to issue "Green Prescriptioions" in the late 1990s in Japan it is called 'shinrin yoku' or "Forest Bathing" since 1982. Japan's research has proved, that the enhancement of intracellular anticarcinogens in lymphocytes (white blood cells) and natural killer cells (NK) that protect against viral infections and tumor growth. It has also been proven to show great improvement to cardiovascular and metabolic systems and DNA protections.
The United Kingdom National Health Service is doing studies and has budgeted multi-million dollars trying to gain knowledge on the process of what they are calling “Green Prescribing.” This is a holistic form of medicine which is having amazing healing effects on the human body, mind, and spirit. Plants and flowers give off chemicals which are known as phytochemicals that actually can aid in cardiovascular care, improvements in cancer recovery, and levels of healing of many issues. Phytochemicals are produced by plants as a defense mechanism against pathogens. They are used to treat various metabolic, immunological, and neurological disorders in humans in various parts of the world as a part of traditional medicine. Among the phytochemicals mentioned as potentially providing health benefits are polyphenols, flavonoids, isoflavonoids, anthocyanidins, phytoestrogens, terpenoids, carotenoids, limonoids, phytosterols, glucosinolates, and fibers. Many of these are ingested but they also are emitted by plants that are growing outside and houseplants as well. It is already known that planting Tulsi (Rama), Rue, Lavender, and many other herbs, near your patio, or where you sit out of doors, will drive away mosquitoes, ticks, etc, but it will also waft their heavenly, clove and other spicy scents which are sending a healing process for your entire system. No kidding. Many trees, herbs, flowers, and even vegetables also do this same thing. Amazing isn’t it? If you get Gardeners World watch Season 55, Episode 3, and towards the end, a UK doctor talks about this. These phytochemicals which float around in the air also carry with them anti-fungal, and anti-bacterial effects, which will make your body start producing white blood cells (natural killer of bad cells of viruses, and bacteria). This is also being studied in Canada, the US, Australia some Asian countries, and other locations in Europe. If you have taken walks in woods, or gardens you will notice that you do feel differently and you can smell so many different things. So you may know of this healing experience already. Now the medical community in some parts of the world are finally catching up to it as well, and actually “Green Prescribing.”
