Can Any Combination Of Herbs Be Taken Together Safely?


Hi Can you please read below and let me know what you think. Thanks!



These herbs are well none burdock root, cinnamon, dandelion, tumeric, oregano, black cohosh etc.......... All i am asking is if i show you the ingredients list for each formula i have all i need you to tell is if these herbs ARE SAFE TO BEEN TAKEN TOGETHER. That's all it's my fault for saying testing, i meant to say if i provide the ingredients of each formula to you than all i need you to tell me is whether or not it is safe for the herbs listed in formula for them to be taken.

For example, this is just an example:



Just say i have:



Echinacea

Burdock Root

Dandelion

Red Clover



for one of my fomula's since you are qualified all i need you to tell me is whether or not these herbs can be taken together without causing harm to ones health. I know all about herbs as i study them everyday and i mean everyday but i am very cautious and would just like to know if certain herbs can be mixed with others and not cause any side effects and since you are qualified this is why i am asking. I am starting a herbal business and these herbal formulas as only going to be sold as HERBAL TEA PACKETS. I am NOT selling ointments, creams, tinctures, syrups or extracts. Just selling the dried herbs in a TEA FORM BASE meaning the DRIED herbal formula in a tea bag.



Thanks

Regards

Dear Damian
Your question is more business oriented and less on medical front. On medical front formulating a drug by mixing different herbs has different para meters depending upon their gun dosh ras virya vipak etc. The main consideration is whether herbs having light or heavy effect are being mixed or mixing of one that increases pit with one that increases kaph will negate the net medical outcome. so mixing of herbs per choice is not recommended but mixing herbs based on ethics is highly recommended.
As far consideration is for refreshing tea it depends on flavor and taste. There are companies pumping pit pacifying tea, kaph pacifying tea or vaat pacifying tea. Herbal tea and masal tea are also in routine use. Here you can develop formula based on your expertise.
wish you all the best.
