Herbal supplements are plant-derived products containing one or more herbs, used to supplement the diet and support health or manage health problems. They are available in various forms, such as pills, teas, and powders, and are made from different parts of plants like roots, leaves, and flowers. However, herbal supplements are not regulated as medicines by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and can pose health risks, including adverse drug reactions and interactions with other medications. You should always consult a healthcare provider before taking any herbal supplements. 

Herbal supplements work by introducing a complex mix of plant chemicals (phytochemicals) into the body, which can then interact with various physiological systems to restore balance or provide a therapeutic effect. Unlike conventional medicine that often isolates one active ingredient, herbal medicine uses the whole plant, with the belief that the combined chemicals offer a greater, synergistic effect.

Yes, herbal supplements can have side effects, interactions with medications, and contamination risks, so they are not always safe. Side effects can range from mild, such as headaches or rashes, to severe, including liver damage, kidney failure, or even cancer. They can also contain dangerous contaminants like heavy metals. It is crucial to consult a healthcare provider before taking any herbal supplement to discuss potential risks and interactions with your existing medications. 

No, herbal supplements are not suitable for all age groups, as their safety and efficacy have not been tested for many vulnerable populations, including children, pregnant or breastfeeding women, the elderly, and individuals with certain medical conditions or who are undergoing surgery.
