Here you can find information on herbs, discover remedies for common ailments and learn to make your own soothing oils, infusions, tinctures, and salves.

We are updating the information on this website daily so check back regularly for the latest information.
Here are a few Guides to using herbs safely:
* Read up on them. Don't just take friends' advice.
* When using commercial preparations (teas, tinctures, pills, capsules, etc.), follow the label directions. Don’t exceed recommended dosage.
* If you're over 60, start by taking a low dose, especially if you have kidney or liver problems. As people grow older, sensitivity to drugs increases, so a low dose might suffice. Starting with a low dose of medicinal herbs reduces the risk of adverse reactions. You can always increase the dose later.
* In medical consultations, tell your doctor which herbs you take and why. Forthrightness helps prevent potentially harmful interactions between herbs and pharmaceuticals. (It also encourages physicians to learn more about herbs.)
* If you’re scheduled for surgery, stop taking anticoagulant herbs at least two weeks beforehand, notably, garlic, ginkgo, ginseng, and white willow.
* Do not duplicate drug effects with herbs. If you take an antidepressant, don’t take St. John's wort, the herbal antidepressant. If you take a pharmaceutical anticoagulant, e.g. aspirin, don’t take large amounts of garlic, ginkgo, or ginseng. If you’re already taking a tranquilizer or anti-anxeity medication, steer clear of kava, an herbal tranquilzier.
* Do not substitute an herbal medicine for any prescribed medication.
* Stay alert for problems: abdominal upset, diarrhea, headache, itching, rash, or anything else out of the ordinary. If you notice unusual symptoms that appear to be linked to a medicinal herb--stop taking it and discuss your reaction(s) with your doctor.
