I have just had a look at this website.
I would strongly advise against purchasing these products in many ways:
Herbal Medicine is a very individual therapy; A Herbalist may see 10 patients with the same 'disease' and prescribe them completely different medicines. It is a holistic discipline taking into account underlying causes of problems rather than just symptoms.
The herbs in the prescription, while no doubt beneficial to these symptoms, no details are given: What are the quality of the herbs, are they whole plant or extracts, are they standardised to any particular constituent?
Anybody who claims to have a 100% cure rate should be scrutinised. All medicine, whether orthodox or complementary have a few people who do not respond as expected or who is not helped by the medication. Again because everybody is individual.
Sorry, I could go on, but this is (obviously) a passion of mine! The importance of consulting a professional if you are to use Herbal Medicine or any other 'complementary therapy' cannot be underestimated.
www.nimh.org.uk and http://www.phytotherapists.org/ are good websites to look at.
This is for no personal benefit whatsoever and most of the herbs in the website you have stated can be grown in your own garden!
Best wishes. x
