Any feedback would be appreciated.

Yes, I grow some herbs, though mostly culinary ones. I don't have the time or expertise to process and purify the few herbs I use medicinally.

As for your website, I suggest you consult with medical and herbal professionals to make sure your advice is correct*. Currently there are inaccuracies that could result in wasted spending and harm to people's health.

You say:

"There are many reasons people have trouble loosing (sic) weight, even if they are exercising, and eating the right diet. It may be because in addition to these, you may have to cleanse or purify your organs or tissues to get the maximum benefit from your routines."

The idea that one has toxins or poisons that must be "cleansed" (or that herbs and supplements could accomplish such a task) is a common misconception. Losing weight has nothing to do with any "toxin" buildup.

You recommend using licorice root for adrenal function (and in some manner helping us to lose weight). Licorice root is not useful for this purpose, and can damage kidney function. You suggest that we need magnesium supplements for some reason associated with dieting (untrue). We get ample magnesium from a proper diet including fruits, vegetables, whole grains and nuts. Low magnesium is an uncommon condition, especially in people in decent health. Excess magnesium in the body, while also uncommon, can be a problem in those with conditions such as hypothyroidism and renal failure, or who consume excess magnesium (for instance, by taking lots of antacids and laxatives). Artificial magnesium supplementation can be harmful in such people.

Good luck with your website.

*and using a spell checker would make your site look more professional.

I agree. You have to be very careful what you say on your website. For false advertisment your site can even be shut down and you get in real trouble. Also never advertise herbal product curring any disease since they are not FDA approved.
