Traditional medicine

Traditional medicine is a type of medicine that is based on the knowledge and practices of a group's culture. It uses things like herbs, plants, and minerals to prevent and treat illness. For example, people in some cultures have used special herbs to relieve migraines, and people have used certain minerals to help with healing. Traditional medicine can be really helpful in keeping people healthy, but it doesn't have to replace modern medicine.
