For thousands of years, ancient cultures have used the power of herbs to support the functions of the body. Much of the continuing work done by modern research substantiates the wisdom of the ancients in their application and use of herbs.

Single herbs used alone often will not have the same effect as when combined in a formula; a synergy is created. To achieve this synergy was a measure of the ancient herbalist's ability.

Successful formulas often were closely held and passed on to the next generation. Modern science is just beginning to unlock the ancients' wisdom - successful formulas that were closely held - passed on from generation to generation.
