Herbal Remedies
Herbal medicines are derived from a variety of plants materials including bark, leaves, stems, and roots. They usually
contain numerous biologically active ingredients and are used primarily for treating mild or chronic ailments. It is estimated
that over 30 percent of all conventional pharmaceuticals include some of the same ingredients, although generally in
purified form. Herbal remedies can be prepared in a number of different ways, using either fresh or dried ingredients.
Herbal teas and infusions can be steeped to various strengths. Roots, bark, and other plant parts can be boiled into
strong solutions called decoctions. Honey or sugar can be added to infusions and decoctions to make syrups. In stores
such as HealthBuy, herbal remedies can be purchased in the form of pills, capsules, powders, or in more concentrated
liquid forms. They can be applied topically in creams or ointments.
The amount of active ingredients can vary greatly, depending on whether one or more species of the herb is used and
how and when the herb is gathered and prepared. Because some herbs can be toxic or carcinogenic, it is important to
find a dependable manufacturer with a track record of safety and dependability.
HealthBuy Manufacturing Guidelines
Blending and Granulation - All equipment used in the process of mixing and granulation is inspected by the Director of
Operations prior to use. Raw materials are then inspected for the final time. The lots are then processed using strict written
guidelines for each herbal product. Following granulation and blending, the powder blends are stored in specially designed
containers to ensure freshness and to avoid any contamination. Once again the Director of Operations ensures that all new
blends are labeled appropriately.
Encapsulation and Compression - Once a test unit has been processed, a sample is unit is issued to Quality Assurance
to be compared to retained samples in order to ensure product integrity. Once the new unit has been approved by Quality
Assurance, full line production may begin. Quality Assurance inspections are conducted using set protocols for the
capsules. As with the blending and granulation process, the capsules are stored in specifically designed containers to
ensure freshness and to avoid any contamination. The Director of Operations makes certain that all new capsules are
labeled appropriately.
Liquids - Liquid products are prepared following the same stringent protocols described above for blending, granulation,
encapsulation and compression.
Packaging and Inspection - Upon completion of processing, the final product is inspected again by the Quality Assurance
staff. Broken tablets, over filled capsules and any other defective products are removed from the lot. Products released by
the Quality Assurance staff are subsequently either packaged for bulk storage or bottled and labeled for consumer use
(labels contain the appropriate information required by the Federal Drug Administration; batch numbers are logged).All
finished products are properly labeled and closed with a tamper proof seal. The Quality Assurance unit also retains samples
of raw materials for one year past the expiration date of the last product they are used in. The unit also retains samples of
finished products for one year past the product expiration date. These samples are maintained under controlled conditions.
Final Products - All final products are stored in quarantine in a climate controlled environment until final delivery
to the customer.
Learning About Medicinal Herbs and Nutraceuticals
Medicinal herbs generally refer to plant parts, sometimes ground, extracted, or otherwise prepared,
used for health and wellness benefits.
Neutraceuticals is a more recent and more general term that refers to a group of natural substances
that include certain herbs and such products as cholesterol lowering margarines and psyllium fortified products that are
used as dietary supplements and regulated as foods.
Traditional systems of medicine have been used throughout the world for centuries by literally billions of people. Certain
ancient systems, such as traditional Chinese medicine, Ayurveda (the holistic system of medicine from India), and Tibetan
medicine, are still used extensively, particularly in their country or origin. In the United States, awareness in the therapies
of such systems, particularly for the treatment of chronic illness, is growing. These therapies, usually referred to as
complimentary or alternative medicine, range from medicinal herbs to acupuncture, message, chiropractic and beyond.
