Know Your Source

There is plenty of information floating around these days regarding the safety of herbs. It is extremely important to us that we know where our herbs come from and how they are processed.

We use only herbs and herbal formulas that are processed here in the U.S. or have strict standards of maunfacturing. We require that our herbal companies comply with the GMP standards for processing. The GMP standards are international standards that are more strict than some FDA standards with regard to the processing of herbal formulas.

The safety of herbal medicine, no matter where the herbs come from, involves two crucial points. 1. The use of GMP standards and 2. the training and certification of the practitioner prescribing the herbs. These two points can determine whether or not you should feel safe taking herbal medicine.
