A Remedy For Herbal Remedies

Posted Oct 21 2009 10:04pm

This month Mid Brain reports on new cosmetic science stories while the Left and Right Brains take time off to work on the new Beauty Brains book.

Mid Brain Reports: passover-greeting-bitter-herb1

Just in case you’re missing the Left Brain’s tirades on “natural versus synthetic,” here’s an article on herbal products that does a nice job of summarizing the Beauty Brains’ point of view. It has a great explanation for why natural herbs are not necessarily always good and why purified (or even synthetic) versions of natural plants can work better.

And remember, address all your hate mail on this topic to Left Brain at thebeautybrains@gmail.com.
