The consumption of herbal products continues to increase, with an estimated sales growth of 10-15% per year projected through the end of the 1990s. As more and more consumers use herbs, it becomes that much more important to ensure that the herbs are used properly and safely. While herbs generally have a safe consumption history, information relevant to specific herbs and particular populations has not been easily available. The Botanical Safety Index Handbook provides readily accessible safety data in an easy-to-use classification system for more than 600 commonly sold herbs. The handbook also features additional information regarding international regulatory status, standard dosage, and certain common toxicity concerns. The editors of this book are among the most respected leaders in the herbal products industry. Their experience includes years of clinical practice, manufacturing and industry governance, and significant writing and lecturing about herbs. The Botanical Safety Index Handbook is for manufacturers of herbal products, health professionals who prescribe herbal remedies, and the consumer. This is a valuable resource for the safe dispensation of herbal products, and will help ensure the safe consumption of herbs through the 1990s and beyond.

herbal products question by brwneyedirish813: What is a good website to purchase herbal products?
I want a website to purchase herbal products for my 6 month old- I found a few sites- but im not into bringing my daughter to the doctor unless it’s something I have no control over. Please give me websites where I can purchase products for infants. Thank you!

Answer by oldtimekid2
Well, I don’t think you’ll find an herbal company that sells a lot of products for infants because most herbs haven’t been researched for safety in infants and commonly aren’t recommended for anyone under 18 years old.
For a child as young as 6 months, I would only give them an herbal product if the label specifically listed a dosage for that age or if a doctor said the proper dose for an herb (although it’s hard to find a pediatrician that knows about supplements, unfortunately).
There are several good companies that sell herbal products that have good quality, but they would have those same recommendations. http://www.swansonvitamins.com http://www.puritanspride.com and http://www.vitacost.com are a few of the better ones. Good luck and I hope I helped!
