An herb is a plant or part of a plant used for its flavor, scent, or potential therapeutic properties. Includes flowers, leaves, bark, fruit, seeds, stems, and roots. Herbs are used as native herbal medicine products and as dietary supplements that people take to improve their health. Medicinal Herbs have been used for a long time for claimed health benefits. They are sold as tablets, capsules, powders, teas, extracts and fresh or dried plants. However, some herbs can cause health problems, some alternative herbal remedies are not effective and some may interact with other drugs you are taking. | An herb is a plant or part of a plant used for its flavor, scent, or potential therapeutic properties.
