- Diseases
- We take the traditional body system approach here. We don't scare you with "integumentary system", preferring to talk about healthy skin. We also talk about bones and muscles rather than the "musculo-skeletal system" but other more standard names are used, like circulatory, digestive, immune and the other systems. Herbal and other treatments for several common diseases from each system are presented.

Site Features
Standards Compliance
We believe in setting high standards. So when it comes to web programming we naturally adopt the W3C standards for websites. We present valid XHTML code with valid CSS. You can learn more by following the links to the right.
In addition to standards compliance, which you can read about in the box, we have introduced a couple of handy features for you.
The first is a rotation of some brief clinical case studies. To help avoid the sameness of pages that may be visited repeatedly as you work through the herb pages, we will rotate the case studies. There should be a fresh one available each time you return to those pages.
The other feature is the inclusion of a sample of The Health Gazette blog. You should be able to see it below and we may place more updates on other pages over time.
