February is National Wise Health Consumer Month
Seems like every month is claimed as some kind of national something-or-other month by numerous groups, but this one caught my eye. It was part of a newsletter sent out by the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, which I have found to be a relatively reliable source of good information and worth subscribing to.
The website link in the newsletter contains information on Dietary and Herbal Supplements, Cost Information (which had an excellent discussion of insurance issues) and Research Results from NCCAM funded CAM research. I found the Herbs at a Glance page to be very well done containing a list of 42 herbs including information about what the herb is used for, how it is used, what the science says, and side effects and cautions.
This seemed like good information, so am passing it along.
