(quote taken from site)
Don't be swayed by those who make great-sounding claims for
standardization.
Although this may sometimes be a desirable feature, Grandma and
thousands
of Grandmas before her never said you must have standardization to
obtain
and use medicinal plants. Standardization of herbals is not as relevant
as it is for extremely potent synthetic drugs. Those who argue strongly
for standardization are trying to corner the market. Herbal medicine is
a grass-roots domain, don't allow it to be a pharmaceutical monopoly.
Many
strong arguments can be made for not standardizing. Nature has produced
a pharmacy of chemicals in each plant. Man has learned to use the whole
plant largely by experience in the treatment of various conditions. To
standardize is to change this equation and nullify the experience.
