- I am not an herbalist. I just love herbs. I spend time reading many herbal books but I do not know everything. I learn as I go, trying new remedies, recipes, and adjusting how I want/need. Please, I encourage you to spend some time reading about any herb before deciding its right for you. Remember, minor or major allergic reactions may happen.
