Meadowsweet was the original aspirin. Calendula healed wounds during wartime. These weren't folk tales — they were front-line medicine used by soldiers, physicians, and families for centuries. So what happened? The rise of the pharmaceutical industry pushed these remedies aside — not because they stopped working, but because they couldn't be patented.
