Common Ground Sought on Supplements - (March 9, 1999)
Pharmacists holding their annual convention in San Antonio are vowing to
work with so-called "herbal practitioners" to standardize manufacturing
and labeling of herbal treatments. The American Pharmaceutical Association
is holdingits annual convention in San Antonio. Officials with the group
say herbalismis the "hottest trend in health care today..." but pharmacists
and herbal practitioners agree that a lack of accepted standards and
scientific research into herbs and dietary supplements make pharmacists
leery of dispensing them.
Statement on WWW Herbal News by American Pharmaceutical Association
Can you name the herb that has been used effectively for a variety of
conditions, including candidiasis, smoker's cough, warts, diabetes, ulcers,
rheumatism, allergies, tumors, AIDS, leukemia, cancer, liver disease, and
all types of infection? For those of you unhappy with your appearance,
one herbal company has 90% success in curing baldness, and other companies
have herbal products to increase metabolism, libido, and even breast size
AphA list of Natural Products Resources
American pharmacists admit that they know next to nothing about herbs, except
of course nicotine containing herbs, yet they want to work with herbalists.
So I guess that reading about it in these books is the next best thing. Isn't
the multi-national pharmaceutical industry just grand?
Search for Herbal
Then you can quiz your pharmacist about what kind of herbal crap that their head
office say they should sell.
