Black Nightshade (Solanum nigrum) contains both valuable protective and liver detoxification compounds. As with any botanical, the climate, soil type, weather, and maturity of the harvested plant parts will determine the over all chemical make up of the plant ingredient.

Himalaya is a seed-to-shelf company, which means we grow our own herbs and maintain total control of the plants through harvesting, research, quality control testing, manufacturing, and distribution. Himalaya uses only the ripe berries from the Black Nightshade, with NO detectable toxic compounds.

As with all supplements, botanical plants are analyzed for an upper limit of what would be considered safe to consume in a day. For those people who regularly ingest more than 20 g of Licorice per day, AND have a known sensitivity to this plant, they may experience an increase in blood pressure.

HeartCare contains only a very few milligrams of Licorice, an amount known for it’s benefits as part of this comprehensive, synergistic formula. HeartCare is supported by a number of double-blind placebo controlled clinical trials ensuring the safety and efficacy of this product.

LiverCare is a balanced and comprehensive herbal formula with many human clinical trials supporting the known benefits achieved at specific dosages. We recommend following our label directions. The directed serving has been established through well-designed clinical, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled studies proving efficacy and safety. Through widespread use worldwide, NO adverse reactions have been reported.

Himalaya herbal formulas are proprietary, which means that they are protected by trademark. It is the labeling rights of all manufacturers to present a proprietary formula with one total milligram amount. Every botanical ingredient is an integral part of the synergistic function of the formula, which is uniquely designed to support all relevant systems in the body.

To develop such a comprehensive herbal formula, and to back each formula with a sufficient set of clinical trials that proves the formula to be safe and effective, is an 8 – 10 year process. Because Himalaya formulas are sold as herbal pharmaceuticals and OTC products in many countries around the world, our demand for the highest standards of excellence a part of our business model.

We do not recommend Himalaya herbal formulations and pure herbs for pregnant and nursing mothers, but you can consult your healthcare provider to discuss herbal supplementation.

Since its inception the company has focused on developing safe, natural and innovative herbal products that help people worldwide. Today, over 300,000 doctors endorse Himalaya products worldwide, and consumers in more than 80 countries rely on Himalaya to support their health. We trust this builds confidence in the comprehensive and proprietary nature of our formulas.

LiverCare® is a comprehensive formula clinically studied for overall liver health, effectively supporting all 500 functions of the liver including detoxification. In comparison, milk thistle has been shown to primarily support detoxification, only one of the liver’s many functions.

Yes. Ayurveda is simply a system of medicine that can predict the appropriateness and effectiveness of an herb, however, there is nothing that separates an “Ayurvedic herb” from being used in any other system of herbal medicine. Keep in mind that turmeric, for example, is a very common “Ayurvedic herb”, yet it is rarely identified as such. In fact, today many herbs used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine are commonly known herbal supplements, like Holy Basil, Garlic, Gotu Kola, Bacopa, and Ashwagandha.

When used in moderation and according to the manufacturer’s recommendation, herbs can be a safe alternative to chemical drugs, which often have numerous and toxic side-effects.

However it is important to remember: follow directions on the labels when using herbs. Almost anything taken in excess can cause side-effects. Most reported problems with herbs have been due to overuse or misuse.

Well-known author, Dr. Earl Mindell cautions:

“Just because herbs are natural substances doesn’t mean that they can be used indiscriminately. Herbs can be strong medicine. Before trying any herbal remedy, be sure you know what it does, how to use it, and the possible side effects. Never exceed the recommended dose.”

: Standardized means that the active compound or component believed to make the herb effective is extracted, measured and sometimes concentrated, then packaged in a capsule, tablet or liquid. For example, curcumin is one active compound found in the whole herb Turmeric. Research shows that an exact dose of 95% of that particular compound curcumin, supports joint health. Therefore, a standardized Turmeric capsule will deliver 95% curcumin in each dose.

A whole herb supplement is carefully dried, milled to powder, measured by weight (usually milligrams) and encapsulated. ALL of the herbs’ compounds remain intact –nothing is removed, isolated or concentrated. For example, our whole herb Turmeric capsules contain 700 mg of Turmeric powder, which naturally contains the active compound curcumin, plus oils and other compounds. The whole herb Turmeric supports joint health, as well as liver health, digestive health, healthy cholesterol levels and more.

There is no definite answer, and even herbalists are split on this issue. Consider the facts for yourself.

A standardized supplement:

• Ensuresa consistent amount of an effective active ingredient
• Guarantees that a herb will produce the desired effect
• Can be measured exactly to be used in clinical trials, such as is the case with Ginkgo flavones and St. John’s Wort hypericin

Whole herbs:

• Have been used effectively and safely for thousands of years
• Contain dozens of compounds, which often have synergistic health benefits
• Usually have fewer side-effects, since whole herbs are generally less concentrated

In order to accommodate the diverse needs of our customers, Penn Herb Company offers both standardized preparations and over 400 top quality whole herbs.

For millions in Europe, Asia and other countries where herbal medicine is standard treatment in their healthcare systems, the answer is a resounding “YES!”
