Their experience includes years of clinical practice, manufacturing and industry governance, and significant writing and lecturing about herbs. The Botanical Safety Handbook is for manufacturers of herbal products, health professionals who prescribe herbal remedies, and the consumer. This is a valuable resource for the safe dispensation of herbal products, and will help ensure the safe consumption of herbs through the 1990s and beyond., Providing readily accessible safety data in an easy-to-use classification system for more than 600 commonly sold herbs, this book features information regarding international regulatory status, standard dosage, and common toxicity concerns.
