Re: Regulate Pharms, Not Herbals
How can you protect yourself if you can't buy and sell freely the safe naturals because the producers are regulated out of business?
How do you know your naturals are safe without regulations governing their production and use?

Re: Regulate Pharms, Not Herbals
Me? Like I say, after taking likely a ton or so over the decades, the only side effects have been good, enhancing whole body health. Why should I worry about safety when there's essentially no threat, being I take no pharms; not even aspirin.
Thats great for you, but what about the other people taking them? What regulations are in place to prevent overdosing, harmful side effects, or harmful interaction with other products/conditions?
That's ok, but essentially outlawing what we need; not ok.
What would be outlawed?
