Beyond Medicine The Art and Usage of Herbal Supplements Revealed
A product that is made from plants or botanicals, which are used for treating a disease or for maintaining health are called herbal products, phytomedicines, or botanical products. A product that is made from plants and is used exclusively for internal use is called an herbal supplement.
Numerous prescription drugs and OTC (over the counter) medicines are likewise made from plant products; however, these products contain just purified ingredients and are regulated by the Food and Drug Authority. Herbal supplements may contain plant parts or entire plants.
Herbal supplements come in different forms like:
- Dried
- Powdered
- Chopped
- Capsule
- Liquid
- And can be used in many ways:
- Swallowed as pills, tinctures, or powders
- Brewed as a tea
- Applied to the skin such as creams, gels, or lotions
- Added to shower water
The practice of using health supplements backdate thousands of years. Today, using health supplements is normal among American consumers. Health supplements are not subject to the same manufacturing, testing, and labeling standards and regulations as drugs. The labels of herbal supplements cannot refer to treating medical conditions.
A few manufacturers mention the word standardized on the supplement label; however, it does not mean the same thing from one manufacturer to next. The regulations ensure that the herbal supplements meet the manufacturing standards and that an informative and accurate product label is applied.
