Abstract
HERBAL MEDICINE, OR BOTANICAL MEDICINE, has a rich and ancient history, featured prominently in the healing arts of numerous civilizations over thousands of years. Seeds, berries, flowers, leaves, roots, and bark have been used traditionally in the treatment of many common and uncommon health conditions, including asthma, allergy, migraine, irritable bowel syndrome, menstrual disorders, cancer, and the common cold, among others. In 2008, the World Health Organization reported that the annual market for herbal medicines is nearly $60 billion. (1) As more and more is invested into development and marketing of these products, more and more people are trying them. Among these are professional and avocational singers. [1st paragraph]
