From traditional Anglo-Saxon herbal tinctures to 5000-year-old Ayurvedic practices from the Indian subcontinent, all ancient cultures had natural healing practices that consisted entirely of organic ingredients and ancient wisdom.

Here are 10 of the most powerful ancient remedies that are still used today.
