Personalized Guidance
Our Herbal Support Finder matches you with herbs based on your wellness goals, health profile, and medications.
Standardized extracts are concentrated — do not exceed recommended doses. They may interact differently with medications than whole-herb preparations. Consult a healthcare provider if taking medications.
Follow manufacturer storage instructions. Typically store cool, dry, and away from light.
NEVER apply undiluted essential oils to skin (except Lavender/Tea Tree in small amounts). NEVER ingest essential oils without professional guidance. Keep away from eyes, inner ears, and mucous membranes. Some oils are toxic to pets (especially cats). NEVER use near the face of infants/toddlers.
Store in dark glass bottles away from heat and light. Most oils last 1-3 years. Citrus oils oxidize faster (6-12 months).
Start with smaller amounts and increase gradually. Powdered herbs are concentrated — measure carefully.
Store in airtight containers away from light and moisture. Use within 6-12 months.
