Guest guest Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 I also have a list of links to some of my favorite resources at: http://www.rmhiherbal.org/a/g.favoritwebs.html See section on herbal databases: http://www.rmhiherbal.org/a/g.favoritwebs.html#herbdatabases as well as a lot of other information by herbalists and of interest to them. I checked out the following, and I feel this website contains a lot of disinformation, typical of many medical websites that give herbal information.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2005 Report Share Posted January 19, 2005 Jamie, Thanks for letting me know. When I checked, 7 of the 9 database links were still good. However, The Special Nutritionals Adverse Event Monitoring System (FDA) has been discontinued - maybe they didn't get enough business! the ARS Genome database has moved to: http://www.nal.usda.gov/pgdic/ The most useful herbal databases are still there, like James Duke's phytochemical databases and the herbal materia medicas by Health World and HerbMed. There are other misc links on other parts of the page that are bad, but I haven't had time to keep them updated. When I put together the page, Google did not exist. If a link is bad, just take the title (and possibly the author's last name) and search for it in Google - it may have moved.
