Does the motion of the car, plane, boat or train leave you a little queezy?

For those who use Dramamine, a drug for motion sickness, Peppermint-Ginger is a highly regarded and effective natural alternative without harming the liver or other side effects

Not all herbal medicines are created equal.

My favorite company story regarding quality control has to do with tainted ginseng root

(Ginseng is an herb known for promoting energy and vitality) much of what is on the market comes from China. Due to floods in the early 90′s the gisent roots were rotting. They sprayed the roots with Quintizine to prevent further rotting to get them overseas for production.

My company tests all incoming raw ingredients.   The ginseng during pre-production was tainted. Over and over each batch was showing this chemical.  This did not meet our companies standards of excellance. As a company they halted  producing it’s 3rd top selling herb until they could find clean raw materials. This took YEARS.  Worst part – no other company stopped producing.  During this extended time period anyone taking Ginseng supplements made by other companies were also ingesting this chemical.  True story.

It’s the Too Much BBQ Summer Blues!

Do you have the urpy burpy, too many barbecues or too much summer travel blues?

Your tummy ache solutions could include these medicinal herbs:

Acidopholus/ Bifidus: Travelers diarrhea is more common than one might think – This particular brand guarantees half a BILLION live beneficial bacteria directly to the small intestine. A balance of healthy bacteria has been shown to boost the body’s natural defense capabilities.

(see detailed commentary below)

Peppermint/ Ginger: Perhaps you get an upset stomach from driving, flying or boating.  Plan ahead for motion sickness. Using a blend of herbs including peppermint and ginger this product will ease motion sickness and it’s accompanying queasiness and nausea.

Senna: Constipated?  The herb Senna, which has been used for thousands of years is a natural laxative.  Senna and several other herbs provide a gentle and effective colon flush – it does not cause “emergency” trips to the bathroom – just a gentle encouragement of the muscles of the colon to get things moving again. This product is a “signature” formula for this particular company.

Plant based digestive Enzymes: Gassy? Bloated? Enzymes assist the digestion of all the foods you eat – many enzyme products are animal based – but this brand is a multi action plant based product – better digestion means better absorption of your food.
