Medical disclaimer

The content on this site is for general education only. It is not medical advice and is not a substitute for diagnosis or treatment by a qualified health professional. We do not know your health history, your medicines or your circumstances.

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before you start, stop or change any herb, supplement or medicine, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, giving it to a child, having surgery, taking prescription medicines or living with a long-term condition. Never stop or replace a prescribed treatment because of something you read here.

In a medical emergency, call your local emergency number straight away.

Herbs and supplements carry risks

“Natural” does not mean safe. Herbs and supplements can cause side effects and allergic reactions, interact with medicines, and contain ingredients or contaminants that are not on the label. In many countries, supplements are not tested or approved by regulators before they are sold, and their makers’ claims are not reviewed in advance.

What our evidence ratings mean

Our evidence ratings summarise human research for a specific use at the time of writing. A rating of “moderate” or “limited” means the evidence is uncertain; it is not a promise that a product will work for you. Animal and laboratory studies are described as early evidence only. Research changes, and new studies can change our conclusions.

Product reviews and certifications

Our reviews describe what we could check on the date shown: the label, published research, independent testing and certification records, regulator databases, safety reports and buyer feedback. Unless a review says so, we have not tested the product in a laboratory ourselves. Manufacturers can change formulas, sources and labels at any time, and certifications can lapse. Check the current label and the certifier’s own database before you buy.

Tools and AI-assisted summaries

Our interaction checker, label checker, remedies finder and skin analyzer give general information only. They do not cover every herb, medicine or interaction, and “no result found” does not mean that something is safe. The skin analyzer is not a medical device and cannot diagnose skin conditions. Some evidence summaries are drafted with the help of AI and checked against their sources, but they can still contain errors, so always read the linked studies or ask a professional.
