Herbs are powerful — and safe use starts with respect. Before adding a new plant to your daily routine, always ask three questions:
1. What part of the plant am I using?
2. How strong is the preparation?
3. Do I take any medications or have conditions that might interact?
Certain herbs like St. John’s Wort can affect prescription drugs, while Licorice Root may raise blood pressure in large amounts. Pregnant or nursing customers should double-check every herb for safety.
Lhasa Karnak’s staff can help guide your research and recommend reliable books — not medical advice, but community wisdom built over decades. We encourage moderation, variety, and curiosity.
The rule of thumb: start small, listen closely, and adjust mindfully. Plants work best when treated as allies, not quick fixes.
