Herbal supplements are herbal food supplements of naturally occuring plants and herbal sources. Many are believed to have some health and/or nutritional benefits. Some herbal supplements include, aloe vera, bitter orange, black cohosh, damiana, dong quai herb, ginger, ginkgo biloba, green tea, milk thistle and so on. The quality varies widely so before purchasing you should carefully research the supplier and generally buy from a major brand.
