Acetaminophen Dulls Empathy, but Herbs Don't

Study after study has shown that Acetaminophen, most commonly referred to as Tylenol, not only dulls pain, but it also dulls the ability to feel empathy. The societal impacts of the loss of empathy, even a small decrease, is concerning for the future of humans, animals

and the Earth. We have to be able to put ourselves in the shoes of others - to feel empathy to survive.

Herbs don’t reduce the ability to feel empathy! There are a number of herbs that can be used for pain and fever and tend to work best when they are blended together as a formula.
