From Poney:…

“Thank you for your interest in providing safe and high quality herbs to your patients. Only by expecting higher quality, educating your patients and colleagues, will there be an increased demand for change. When we stop ordering unsafe herbs, only then there will be incentive for herb growers in China to change their current practices. It is up to us as practitioners to elevate the public trust in Chinese herbs. Our patients and friends in Western medicine don’t trust Chinese herbs. Every time they hear or read about Chinese herbs is when it is toxic and killed someone. It is up to us to elevate the trust in Chinese herbs. Thank you for being a conscientious TCM practitioner.”
