A reminder that every body is different and everyone’s experience with herbal medicine differs depending on the individual.
Herbal medicine is not approved or regulated by the FDA. Unlike pharmaceutical drugs that undergo rigorous testing and evaluation for safety and efficacy, herbal products are classified as dietary supplements and fall outside the FDA's regulatory scope. Limited scientific research, potential variability in content and potency, and the risk of interactions with medications underscore the need for caution when considering herbal remedies. Consulting with a healthcare professional is advisable when making informed decisions about their uses.
