Jetsun Posted October 13, 2013 It is crazy that our current science has only investigated about 1% of the properties of the medicinal plants of the Amazon, yet they look for all their answers from synthetic medicines made in a lab. It is a very nice film, thanks. Those Shaman are the real deal, many of the other similar films focus on the Ayahuasca and all the Shaman does is administer that, but these Shaman also use the Aya to help them to identify which of the other plants are going to be beneficial for the individual health conditions so they are the real Amazonian healers, and the results speak for themselves 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes it is crazy , but at the same time maybe very lucky too .... Imagine if science proved long time ago the potency of healing plants from Amazon and there was no law existing that protects indigenous medicinal knowledge . Predating big pharma would maybe already be cashing up on it big time and " lungs of the world" would maybe be taking their last breath . This would have a potential to result worst case scenario on the large scale . Some worth mentioning good stuff is happening about biopiracy -- protection of indigenous medical knowledge now though : http://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2013/may/01/eu-biopiracy-protect-indigenous-people Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
