Green Pharmacy

While reading other articles, I was pointed to check out Dr Jim Duke's website the Green Pharmacy. It was alluded to even by Johns Hopkins because supposedly Dr. Duke has done all sorts of research into the uses of different plants (he's a botanist, by the way, not a medico) and their impact on health and treating disease. Again, these different articles refer to him being commissioned by the National Cancer Institute, etc. However, this Green Pharmacy website is so convoluted that I could not find anything useful, really. The most useful thing I found was this PDF version of an article from the magazine Good Housekeeping, which has some good tips on foods to include in your diet. If you search for "cancer" on the site, it will return tons of articles, but none seem particularly mind blowing. If you're really into naturopathy or botany though, you might have a field day with this.
