1. General questions about herbal medicine
What is herbal medicine and how does it work?
Herbal medicine is a traditional form of medicine that uses plants or plant extracts to support health and treat various conditions. The herbs contain natural active substances that can have a positive effect on the body with regular use in the correct dose.
What is the difference between your herbal products and synthetic medicines?
Herbal products come from natural sources and often have fewer side effects than synthetic medicines. They are milder and support the body's natural functions over time, but may require longer use to produce results. Synthetic medicines can provide faster results but may also have more side effects.
How long does it take before I see results from using herbal medicine?
The effect of herbal medicine varies depending on the individual and condition. Generally, it can take several weeks of regular use before you notice an improvement. Consistency is key to success with herbs.
Are your products organic?
No, our products are not organically certified, as many of our herbs and blends are wild-picked or from small farms that do not have the resources for organic certification. However, our herbs are of higher quality than many organic herbs because they are tested in independent laboratories for pesticides and bacteria.
Where do your herbs come from?
Our herbs come from small-scale growers and wild pickers, primarily from Southeast Europe. We collaborate closely with our suppliers to ensure sustainable harvesting and the preservation of biodiversity.
2. Usage and effectiveness
Are your products safe to use with prescription medicines?
Our herbal products are generally safe, but we always recommend that you consult a doctor before combining them with prescription medicines, especially if you have underlying health conditions or are taking multiple medications.
Can I use your products if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?
Some herbs are safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, while others may be unsuitable. We recommend that you consult your doctor or midwife before using any of our products during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
How do I know which herbal product is best for me?
We recommend that you read the product descriptions and choose the product that best suits your needs. If you are unsure, you can contact us for advice or consult an expert in herbal medicine.
Can I use your products together with other natural remedies?
Generally, our products can be combined with other natural remedies, but it is important to monitor how your body reacts. If you are unsure, we recommend that you consult a naturopath or other qualified healthcare provider.

4. Sleep-Tea and Usage
Can I use your sleep tea every night, or do I need to take breaks?
Our sleep tea is developed with carefully selected ingredients that are safe for regular use. The ingredients are tested and free from pesticides, which reduces the risk of liver impact. However, we recommend that you always listen to your body's signals and, if in doubt, consult a doctor.
What side effects can I expect from your sleep tea?
Our sleep tea is formulated to minimize side effects and contains only natural ingredients. There are no reported serious side effects, but since individual reactions can vary, we recommend that you contact your doctor if you experience any discomfort.
5. Quality and Testing
Are your products tested for active ingredients?
Yes, we test all harvests and batches for active ingredients before we purchase them. This ensures that our products are of the highest quality and that the pickers are fairly compensated for their herbs.
If your products are so good, why are they not recommended by doctors?
There are doctors and researchers who recommend herbs. However, as a smaller company, we do not have the same resources as large pharmaceutical companies to market our products. Herbs require consistency to be effective and can be difficult to patent, which makes them less attractive to large pharmaceutical companies.
Do your products really work?
All our raw materials are tested in independent laboratories to ensure the highest purity. We use raw materials from small-scale cultivations or wild harvesting that contain a higher concentration of active ingredients than commercially grown herbs.
6. User Tips and Instructions
Why do you recommend covering the tea while it steeps?
Covering the tea helps to preserve the essential oils and keeps the water warm, which maximizes the herb's effect.
Is a thermos mug better than your products?
Our products are designed to optimize the extraction of the herbs' active ingredients, with a built-in tea strainer that makes it easy to use loose leaf tea.
Doesn't the tea become bitter if the tea leaves are left in for too long?
You can easily remove the filter while the tea is in the bottle to control how long it steeps. Medicinal herbs often have a better effect the longer they steep, but some herbs can become bitter. Our bottles are designed to work best with herbal teas.

How does the subscription work?
