Capsules bypass taste, which can be important — bitter taste stimulates digestion. For digestive herbs, teas or tinctures may be more effective. Always follow recommended dosing.
Store in airtight containers away from moisture. Use within 6-12 months for best potency.
FOR EXTERNAL USE ONLY. Do not apply to deep wounds or broken skin unless the herb is specifically indicated for this. Patch test on a small area first.
Store in a cool, dark place. Properly made salves last 1-2 years.
