Dr. Mustafa Yasar, who conducts a study on the phytotherapy for 21 years, says that Turkish physicians have information deficits and there is an authority to monitor these studies.

If we list any things that should be done for a happy life, I hope that first item is to pay attention to our health. We know that, if our health is not good, our energy, movements and motivation are restricted. Furthermore, while we loss your valuable time today, we enter under a critical material burden. Not only our health, but also health of people around us is critical for us. Please, remember warnings of your mom, your daddy or friends to you…
Despite all of them, we never understand worth of our health unless we are sick. If our head or stomach pains or feel to gain weight, we leave ourselves to arms of the medicine and endeavor to solve our problem with any manufactured synthetic drugs. Unfortunately, as everyone knows, even some people in our country offers their guest Calcium Sandoz pills instead of soft drinks. Today pharmaceutical companies require us exactly: to make more people druggies. If we think that a large number of people gain money in pharmaceutical industry and billions of dollars circulate in this industry, of course they are right according to them. So, people, who lost their health…
AS OLD AS HUMANINITY
Today, European countries endeavor to heal their people by phtotherapy as well as synthetic drugs. Especially in Germany, in cases that any herbal products never solve any problems of a patient, physians excuse that patient and begin to treat him/her with synthetic dugs.
Actually history of medicinal herbs is as old as the human history. Even in times, when there was no medical science, some people applied therapies with medicinal herbs. In Turkish and Islam history, there are different works of famous physicians on medicinal herms grown in Anatolia such as Lokman Hekim, Ibn-i Sina, İbn-i Baytar, Ebu Reyhan el Biruni, Davud-u Antaki, Al Gafiki, etc.
If we return to today and Turkey, our people have the relevant knowledge as much as things described by herbalists around where they reside, and by guests of TV broadcasts. It is possible to see anybody, who talks about phytotherapy even everyday at TV channels… When we watch these people closer, we can see that they have no sufficient knowledge and they market their 3 to 5 products easily.
We researched who applied and developed phytotherapy methods properly in our country and made an effort to meet any standard. We encountered with a company named “Naturin,” which manufactures completely natural products and which all food supplements are sold at drug stones rather than at sellers of medicinal herbs in Izmir.
The company, which combines plants over 150 and manufactures 310 kinds of support supplements, sells its works to 23 countries.
IT TREATS FOR 21 YEARS.
We had a mercy conversation with Dr. Mustafa Yasar, the Board Chairman, and Mr. Alpaslan Karasaban, Vice General Manager, who said that the grew a substantial part of plants themselves. Whikle we were informed about Naturin, we also visited production, packaging, laboratory and warehouse departments.
Dr. Mustafa Yasar has dealt with phytherapy for 21 years. He is also an acupuncture and bio-energy specialist. First, he his patients, and then conducts energy, magnetic field and meridian scanning in their bodies. Thus, he determines where any problems occur in a body consisting of 12 systems and were any disorders occur in a system. You can have a large number of patients, but other may develop depending on any diseases in your body. Our physician told us that, when we would overcome our disease with phytotherapy, others would end off. We understand that synthetic drugs only trigger such problems and cause several diseases because they never solve the problem.
Dr. Mustafa Yasar, who stated that his first focus on phytotheraphy resulted from a seller of medicinal herbals, said "When I was in second grade, I noticed that a therapy method consisting of only the anti’s during my drug education in the way that there is a sugar, and there are sugar reducers; and there is a blood pressure, and there are chlorothiazides. I though could whether we could correct the disrupted structure by another system. I saw an advertisement in a newspaper. It was written: 'End to all diseases including cancers and asthma.' I wondered and called them saying 'How does it occur?' I called and asked ‘Can I work with you?’ The man on phone said "This is not a job that you can do. Please do your job. This is different. Physicians never understand this job.’ My university teachers ridicule me ‘What is connection of the present medicine with phytotherapy?’ I observed any kinds of therapy systems implemented in Far East, Korea and Azerbaijan, believed existence of the phytotherapy and trained myself in this."
When you want to be treated with herbs, you can find the herb only in sellers of medicinal herbs. But, you cannot know how and where they are collected and under which conditions they are stored. Are they sterilized and what are their active ingredients? They should be known. In this context, Naturin conducts a critical study. It is possible to observe this at the production plant...
People, who have worked in the herb system, have communicated their knowledge each other for years. The trial-error system was applied. After 1930 to 1940, they passed to scientific period. Upon identification of the organized active ingredients and the developing technology, the pharmaceutical industry was developed. When it became commercial upon development of the sector, the herbs were set aside. In a centenarian industrial period, rupture from the nature occurred. At the end of a period of 25 to years since such rupture, Europe trained its physicians and pharmacists on the herbal drugs. And it also monitored such manufactured herbal drugs. Deficiency in us resulted from the fact that this information is not communicated to our physicians Our physicians understand the phytoherapy is a therapy conducted with products purchased from sellers of medicinal drugs and say "This is impossible."
TDr. Yasar stated that, despite all negative thoughts, he endeavored to bring the phytotheraphy to the global level in Turkey, said "We determined to establish a system with any drugs manufactured under sterile conditions, and then conducted R&D studies for 7 to 8 years.. We implemented any important studies to be able to manufacture the best product. Once we began to manufacture any products in accordance with the international standards, we entered the market. We worked devotedly. The pleasure of moral life and any methods we found against any diseases fed us. After a preliminary study of 10 years, Naturin is in market for 3 years. Today, we are a single company. We desire that other companies should take a place in the market as well. We have to meet any requirements alone. We want to grow up any plants, but there is no seed. We need to find seeds. Hence, we produce seeds. You should analyze the products. There is nothing to do. We incorporated all. I treat my patients with herbal products in our clinic. I keep them away from chemical drugs. Since all our products are appeared in the food status, approval of the Ministry of Agriculture is taken."
FOOD SUPPORT
The drugs manufactured by the company enter the support group. While these drugs are taken complete with the synthetic drugs for a while, after the body is accustomed to them, physicians give up the synthetic drugs and return to the herbal drugs. Dr. Yasar, who applies the phytotherapy called as a complementary medicine in Europe, gives his patients interviews due to hard business for August. Dr. Yasar tells his colleagues, who call the phytotherapy as an alternative medicine, "The phrase “alternative” is for a therapy practiced not by me, but by you. Our therapy system is a system implemented since existence of the human being. However, the latter have a background of a century. It means that your one is already implemented. But yours is an alternative one."
Dr. Yasar, who finds the phrase “alternative medicine” exaggerative, says "we cannot tell a patient, who takes blood pressure pills for long years, “Stop to take these drugs and take ones we advise, because the diseases is blocked with these drugs for years. It is incorrect to advise any drugs that the system is not accustomed to. They are given together and complementarily. As the system is stimulated from time to tine, dosage of any chemical drugs may be reduced. This may be done under control of a physician."
Dr. Yasar, who emphasizes that the glance to the phytotheraphy in Turkey should change, says "One should describe this physicians and pharmacists. A system with sellers of medicinal herbs is not sufficient. Absolutely, any training and monitoring system should be implemented. Most of physicians reject this. The say that, in any place, where the since exists, there is no vacancy to this type of therapy. Contrarily, there are already most scientific studies. Because this is not trained, they never see it. We cooperate with Departments of Pharmacy and R&D in the Ege and Pamukkale universities. In our country, there is no institution to know what is true or what is wrong. Whether they are physicians, most people talk about th phytotherapy on TVs. The only benefit is that it is said that the herbal drugs are more useful than the synthetic drugs. In Turkey, there is no authority to monitor this. We are bound to the Ministry of Architecture. However these systems are subjects of the Ministry of Health in Europe. They are in a supportive product format rather than a food format. The Ministry of Health considers effects of the drug, while The Ministry of Agriculture considers ratio and use amount of ingredients constituting a drug. We manufacture any products, equivalent ones of which are not available. Any companies, which enter in the market, usually market any fitness drugs. These drugs drain the fluid and edema in the body and give the person a sense ‘I lost weight,’ but they are actually harmful and should be under control of the Ministry of Health."
Today, specialists tell that people, who do exercises, are fed healthy and stay away from stress, shall not be sick. Never anticipate that a disease knocks our door to look for your body.
