The situation with herbs and spices is somewhat difference. Most traditional ingredients that we use are perfectly safe. Some notable examples include chamomile, peppermint, thyme, rosemary, cinnamon and ginger. You use these to make teas or in dishes every day, so taking slightly more of them and in different forms cannot cause you any harm.
However, not all herbal home remedies are perfectly safe to use. Some are known to produce side effects in people with certain allergies and specific medical conditions. It is also possible for herbal chemical compounds to interact with certain medications and cause trouble. The long intake of some herbs or their products in large amounts can also have a negative effect on the body. This is because the different herbs and plants contain various chemical compounds. Some of them are dangerous, but not when taken in small amounts. When these chemicals build up in the body, they can affect different organs and tissue and cause discomfort and/or damage.
There are also cases in which perfectly safe home products can turn into dangerous substances when used as medicines. One notable yet surprising example is the use of butter for treatment of burns. It has a cooling effect on the skin, but it is not sterile. In turn, the use of butter can actually lead to the burn becoming infected. This can lead to serious complications that require medical treatment. Still, this is a very rare case rather than the norm.
In general, you cannot judge all home remedies as a whole. Each should be assessed on its own merits. It is essential for you to find out more about the use of a certain home remedy. In this way, you will know how it can help you and whether there are side effects associated with it.
