Report: The Vast Majority of ALL Western Drugs Come From This One Natural Plant Source

The Amazon Rainforest isn’t often thought of when it comes to natural healing and natural medicine, but that way of thinking is a big mistake.

The Rainforest isn’t just a place where lots of bugs, jungle cats, rivers and streams are located — it’s also home to the most biodiverse collection of plants on Earth, a large percentage of which still haven’t been studied for their medicinal properties.

Despite that, pharmaceutical companies often send representatives to the Amazon Rainforest to look for their new medicines to synthesize and patent. 

Native healers know all too well that these Rainforest plants are worth their weight in medicinal gold.

Big Pharma Turns Amazon Plants Into Synthetic Drugs

Oftentimes, ‘Big Pharma’ decides to patent and synthesize their valuable compounds for their own financial gain, while leaving out some of the most important parts of the herbs.

A long-forgotten news report, shown below underscores just how important the rainforest is for its incredible, historical and still undervalued medicinal benefits— something the mainstream American media has rarely discussed

 

News Report Reveals — Up to 70% Of ALL Western Drugs Come From the Rainforest

***

I first learned about Rainforest herbs through the Amazon Herb Company, a company that sourced its herbal treatments direct from the Amazon Rainforest.

The company was run by Amazon John Easterling, the husband of the late actress and singer Olivia Newton-John, who healed her cancer and other health problems with a combination of organic cannabis and medicinal herbs.

Olivia husband, known as ‘Amazon John’ spent his days “hunting for treasure” in the Amazon Rainforest.

He later also became a lecturer and speaker in support of Rainforest herbs, which helped heal his wife’s cancer and other health problems.

Photos of the medicinal treasure hunter and his famous, late wife are shown below:

-Camu Camu- These tiny orange berries are eaten by everything from mammals to fish in the Amazon Rainforest, and are one of the richest sources of Vitamin C in the world.

Camu Camu berry is sold in Vitamin C capsules, powders, juice and tinctures and has an Earthy orange taste.

 

While the Amazon Rainforest is the most famous of all of the Earth’s rainforests, it’s just one of many — underscoring just how little we know about the most biodiverse, medicinal herb-rich places on Earth.

The news report mentioned above can be seen below.

In it, the news anchors mention a little-known fact: up to 70% of all Western drugs are sourced from Rainforest locations, including the Amazon Rainforest itself.

Where to Find Amazon Rainforest Herbs in 2025

 

The Amazon Herb Company has been bought out and many of its best products have been discontinued or watered down.

I now get my Amazon Rainforest Herbs from two sources:

1. Standard Enzyme- 

Based in Bremen, Georgia, the Standard Enzyme Company’s formulas are usually recommended by naturopathic doctors and healers. They include Cat’s Claw, Camu Camu, Suma, Sangre de Drago and other healing Rainforest herbs.

2. Healthy Cell- 

I love Healthy Cell because they create functional supplements from some of the finest herbs on Earth.

They taste great or, in the case of their Cat’s Claw supplement, have no taste at all.

Healthy Cell says its AC-11 product is ‘A Patented Bioactive Extract’ of Cat’s Claw from the Amazon Rainforest.

This is just one of many products with herbs and vitamins worth trying from this company, which I have taken in large amounts previously!

3. Amazon.com 

I personally oftentimes will buy Amazon Rainforest herbs from Amazon.com and at local health food stores.

My favorites include Suma, which is similar to Ginseng or Siberian Ginseng. I always tested at a high need for it whenever I went to get a biofeedback test from a natural health practitioner.

It makes me feel so much healthier and stronger with so much more endurance and vitality for physical activities. Suma is a stress buster of the highest order.

Find Organic Suma Here

Another Amazonian Herb I take whenever I can is Sangre de Drago. This herb heals the intestinal lining fast. It is used to repair wounds and to patch up the walls of the digestive system. If you have digestive disorders or leaky gut, check out Sangre de Drago as soon as possible.

Take on an empty stomach in water first thing in the morning. It will do wonders.

Other top Amazon Rainforest Herbs and Fruits that I take often include:

-Acai berry (More Info)
