People all over around the world use plants to make their lives better. They use them for food,
medicine, and many other purposes. We call useful plants “herbs” or “spices”. Usually we use herbs and
spices to flavor our food. However, an herb can also be a plant we use for medicine or scent.
Sometimes, it can even be a plant that is poisonous.
Some herbs and spices we eat everyday can also be medicine. One example is peppermint used in
candy or ice cream. Scientists have even studied this plant. Peppermint oil skills germs that cause illness

pizza. Oregano oil is a very powerful medicine for fighting germs, too. And did you know the hair- like
tassels on cord, called corn silk, can be used to make tea? Scientists make a medicine form corn silk that
