We now have access to herbs from around the world. How do we know which herbs are effective? How do we know which herbs are scientific studied? How do we know the herbs in our capsules and teas are what they say they are? What about adulteration and fraud? These are real issues that consumers face in the marketplace.

It is not surprising that we have used many of the same products to provide support during times of seasonal distress. One of the important concepts is to be prepared. Stock your home with the products that you can use at the first sign of distress. Better to have plenty on hand and not need them, than to get sick and not have what you need.
