It just proves all the commercial brands that jumped on the get rich quick band wagon to fill the big box stores with herbal supplements IS bogus.
Anyone that knows about and knows how to use herbals responsibly NEVER buys them from a box store.
We've been trying to tell people for years that what is in those bottles on Walmart, etc shelves is pure junk and nowhere's near the quality, strength, or even the actual herb itself. Sadly most of the population are like lemmings when it comes to advertising.
Real pure herbs in 100% strength can and do work. People just don't want to pay the price to buy them so they run to Walmart. I'm glad the testing was done and the truth is finally out. And that goes for all the outrageously priced bogus herbal supplements in the stores for pets.
