In our last Case History (R.O. 1/8/2021), the client was taking a supplement that was a mix of herbs and animal adrenal tissue that was given by her physician. Coming from a non-medical background, I dont understand animal tissue supplementation and thus feel unable to take a person off of such. Are animal tissue supplements medical drugs , and would it be in my wheelhouse as an herbalist with no medical training to remove them from a person's treatment plan? The problem with this particular supplement that R.O is taking is that it had a whole bunch of other herbs that I did not want her to be taking. Can you please advise? Thank you, Lea

No they are nutritional supplements and I don’t care for them, this is different than a prescription medication made from animal tissue like Naturethroid of Armour desiccated Thyroid.
