Herbs

The herbs are plants or parts of plants with a long traditional use in many cultures, over the centuries. Many are now the subject of scientific research for their potential properties, however, the majority of herbal components currently do not have an approved health claim by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), under Regulation (EC) 1924/2006.
