Thought this was an interesting article on some of the possible benefits of spices: shine.yahoo.com/vitality/8-world-8217-healthiest-spices-38-herbs-eating-150600515.html I thought the sentence where they say, "Modern science is beginning to uncover the ultimate power of spices and herbs, as weapons against illnesses" was especially hilarious. Modern science hasn't uncovered anything that native Americans, and eastern cultures haven't already known for hundreds of years (with respect to benefits of herbs & spices).

I think it might be uneducated journalists that think it's such a new development. Many drugs are still just extracted, purified herbs, but of course the drug co wants the big bucks for their labor, advertising etc.

I totally agree with ya Mo .. I don't know how we all made it all these thousands of years without the major drug companies sticking their noses in it
