Buying Herbs on the Internet

One of the best places on the internet for buying herbs or vitamins is Vitacost.com. They have a wide selection of products and manufacturers. For example, HerbPharm is one of the best companies for making alcohol-based liquid extracts for dozens of herbs such as ginger, echinacea, ginkgo, saw palmetto, and many others. Putting a dropper full of an herbal extract into a glass of juice or a soda is an easy way to get your supplements, too. One dropper of liquid extract is approximately equal to a 500 mg capsule.

Cinnamon Reduces Triglycerides

A great website that discusses healing from herbs, spices, and vitamins is Cinnamin.net. One page is devoted to the healing aspects of cinnamon. Reducing triglycerides through cinnamon is a great help for those with circulation or heart problems. The website name is slightly spelled wrong because the word "cinnamon" was already taken on the internet.

Another spice that is talked about is ginger. It reportedly thins the blood just like aspirin.

A very good vitamin book review appears on the site, too. The Right Dose tells the symptoms of too little or too much of many vitamins and minerals and how to get the right amount of each for optimum health.
