Message definition (Herbal medicine)
'''Paraherbalism'''  is the [[Pseudoscience|pseudoscientific]] use of [[extract]]s of plant or animal origin as supposed medicines or health-promoting agents. Phytotherapy differs from plant-derived medicines in standard [[pharmacology]] because it does not isolate and [[Standardization|standardize]] the compounds from a given plant believed to be biologically active. It relies on the false belief that preserving the complexity of substances from a given plant with less processing is safer and potentially more effective, for which there is no evidence either condition applies.
