Supplemen-tips!
"Should I check with my doctor or health-care provider
before using a supplement?
This is a good idea, especially for certain population groups.
Dietary supplements may not be risk-free under certain
circumstances. If you are pregnant, nursing a baby, or have a
chronic medical condition, such as diabetes, hypertension or heart
disease, be sure to consult your doctor or pharmacist before
purchasing or taking any supplement. While vitamin and mineral
supplements are widely used and generally considered safe for
children, you may wish to check with your doctor or pharmacist
before giving these or any other dietary supplements to your child.
If you plan to use a dietary supplement in place of drugs or in
combination with any drug, tell your health-care provider first.
Many supplements contain active ingredients that have strong
biological effects and their safety is not always assured in all
users. If you have certain health conditions and take these
products, you may be placing yourself at risk." FDA Website

"The number and variety of available herbal medicines
have exploded since the passage of the Dietary
Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994.
Since ancient times, plants have been valued for their
medicinal properties and, many cultures still rely on
plants as their major source of medicine. Many cultures,
including our own, have a rich history of plant based
medicine. Often you may hear the terms
phytomedicine, complementary medicine, alternative
medicine or herbal medicine used. Extracts from these
medicinal plants as well as whole plant forms have
been used to soothe and to heal a wide variety of
ailments. Recently herbs have been used to protect
against chronic disease."
