Hi, i have a weird question,
Should one add that they have been involved in making herbal "remedies"/teas on an off-the-grid commune in college? I went during one summer and started working with the ladies who produce teas and other herbal supplements and it contributed to my want to pursue something "holistic" but not "quack." I don't necessarily believe in some of the stuff they were producing (though I'm a huge drinker of tea) and i don't want to conflate DO (where I will be applying in the future) with herbalism/chiropody/acupuncture/etc or anything else not considered "real medicine" by the community at large. It was during a time when I was BIG into environmentalism and sustainability. I wanted to also use it in a secondary. Thanks!
