Herbal medicine saves lives, lifts villages out of poverty:

(NaturalNews) Until recently, herbal medicine in Vietnam relied on finding wild medicinal herbs and importing traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) herbs from China. The latter added more expense for average Vietnamese, and quality control for Chinese imports has been lacking. Overharvesting wild herbs and medicinal trees has proven to be unsustainable, especially after Agent Orange was introduced to Vietnam decades ago.
