The American Herbal Products Association responds to misinformed studies and media articles that promote untruths about herbs and herbal products. From 2008 on, AHPA's letters to scientific journals and media outlets will be posted here in order to make these untruths more public and to keep AHPA members informed of these efforts. As long as scientists, journalists and authors continue to publish specious herb-related works, AHPA will publicly draw this fact to their attention.
