After 30 years of working with herbs we are convinced that, with few exceptions, broad-spectrum liquid herbal extracts are the most potent and effective way to ingest herbal medicine, and are superior to so-called "standardized" extracts which often use toxic industrial solvents and exclude many of an herb's chemical compounds which are erroneously considered inert.

In producing our herbal extracts we use precision scientific instruments to analyze each herb's many chemical compounds. However, we do not focus entirely on the herb's so-called "active compound(s)" and instead treat each herb and its chemical compounds as an integrated whole. This holistic approach to herbal extraction produces a broad-spectrum extract that's rich in the color, aroma, flavor, and bio-activity of the original herb itself, but in a form that's easily ingested and optimally assimilated by the body. It's an approach that our customers agree with, and is a key reason why Herb Pharm is the best selling line of liquid herbal extracts in America.

When all is said and done, the broad-spectrum extracts we create are easily and optimally absorbed and assimilated by the body, and therefore their health-promoting effects are promptly felt.
