Natural Health Products in Australia

Reap the Healing Benefits of Natural Health Products

Natural health products are pure, unprocessed substances derived from nature that restores or maintains health. They are sourced from plant compounds and used as complementary medicines or nutritional supplements. Natural health products help in the treatment, prevention or management of disease as they support the body’s natural healing mechanism. 

Vitamins and minerals, herbal medicines, homoeopathic remedies, essential oils and salves are some examples of these products that can address mental, emotional and physical conditions. Some natural health products may be ingested, while others are limited only to topical application. When used accordingly, they offer numerous benefits including the following:

• Provides high level of antioxidants
• Reduces chronic pain
• Alleviates stress
• Balances mental, emotional and physical wellbeing
• Contains anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial agents
• Cuts your healthcare costs

Natural Healing Products vs Pharmaceutical Products 

Because of their unadulterated nature, plant-based remedies provide optimum nutrients that benefit the body inside out. Everyone regardless of age can benefit because these products pose little to no side effects. Unlike their chemically-laden counterparts, natural health products contain natural preservatives, and hence safer to the environment.

It’s also worth noting that these products don’t lead to dependence. It may take a while to see their positive effect as they work on the underlying cause of the problem, but the changes are lasting. That’s where pharmaceutical products miss the mark. Apart from being more expensive as you have to use them continuously, synthetic drugs and products only treat the symptoms of a condition, not the root cause.

While natural health products are considered generally safe, make sure that you only purchase those approved by the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG). This is to ensure that they have passed the safety and quality standards of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), which is responsible for regulating therapeutic goods that are supplied in Australia.
