Kazi’s Answer
Studying and pursuing a career in herbalism, herbal medicine, or phytotherapy can be very satisfying for people who are fascinated with herbs.
Herbal medicine is the study and use of medicinal plants which has a basis in oriental/ traditional medicine. 80% of the population from Asia, and African countries use medicinal herbs as a big part of their diet as well as for health care purposes (WHO).
You can earn certificates, and diplomas from many schools in the USA that offer affordable and accreditable courses in alternative/complementary medicine. There are many reputable schools available.
With a degree and license in the alternative medicine field, you be able to treat and prescribe herbs to patients.
