Guest guest Posted December 22, 2001 Report Share Posted December 22, 2001 Hi Debbie, So, high quality herb caps can be good? Is Solary a good brand for herbs? I have the sniffles. Any herb you would recommend? I haven't had the sniffles in so long I feel odd about it. Pam Debra McDuffee <deb wrote: Hi Pam, I think as long as you get a standardized form it will be fine. The only reason tinctures are recommended is that they absorb more directly and more quickly into your bloodstream, especially if you hold it under your tongue and let it absorb through your salivary glands. It's funny about herbs, b/c you can get a really low quality tincture that will not do for your body what a high quality capsule would. Debbie deb http://www.bodyhealthcenter.com Hi Debbie, Thanks for the wonderful information. Would you recommned the extract form?

Guest guest Posted December 24, 2001 Report Share Posted December 24, 2001 Hi Pam, Sorry I haven't gotten back right away. I just noticed today some posts in reply to posts I never got, so I'm at checking the million I never received for some strange reason. Yes, I do believe high quality caps can be good, especially if they are standardized. I have actually had better results with some caps than I have with tinctures. If you are congested, I love fenugreek-thyme combination from Nature's Herbs. I can't speak for the quality of that company (or Solaray) b/c I haven't researched the lab testing situations, etc., but I do get results from that combo for a stuffy nose or congested head. As far as having a viral infection, I like elderberry over echinacea. It seems to work better for me. If it is something fierce that needs to be zapped, a low dose of goldenseal over a few days usually does the trick. I don't get sick very often either, so it is rare for me to have the right herb from the best company in the house when I need it! I absolutely love Nature's Sunshine, which is a mail-order that you join to get the discount. If you want more info about it, email me privately and I'll give you some info. They have a limited amount of singles, but I have gotten the best results from them. Also, they have the most amazing formulas. There is a sinus one that cleared my allergic dad up right away, when nothing else has worked for months. Now if only I can convince him to do a liver cleanse . . .
