Handy reference for clinicians on herb safety
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
This book is a must for any practitioner of botanical medicine. It is a quick, concise guide to herbal safety. It clearly discusses controversial issues, rather than just randomly trashing herbs based on rumor and innuendo, as so many books in the mainstream medical establishment seem to do. A great work. The appendices at the back discussing important issues in more depth are particularly well done.
This Is A Must

The issuing of BSH is a landmark event. The book contains demonstrations of what the botanicals people consume in their health food products really mean while alerting those in the industry to the issues surrounding their use. This book should be recognized formally by the government. The labeling recommendations presented are meaningful, complete and based on the best of science.If you are a consumer of supplements, or, more importantly, if you are in the business (whether you are a retailer, a broker a a seller of raw materials) this book is a complete reference that must sit on the shelf only occasionally. Otherwise it should be in your hands for consult.
Excellent Book!

I have this book and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to have a key reference to using herbal products safely. It is not the only reference book I consult when looking up the safety of herbal products, but it is one of my main ones. I simply wouldn't think of being without it.I congratulate the American Herbal Products Association for publishing this book and being on the forefront of wanting consumers to have access to accurate information about the safety of herbs when looking to purchase Herbal Products.
