SECTION 2 – OUR PRODUCTS
We make every reasonable effort to accurately represent our products, including their ingredients, appearance, size, quantity, and packaging.
Because our products contain natural botanical ingredients and are prepared in small batches, variations in colour, texture, aroma, and appearance may occur between batches.
Product photographs and colours may also appear differently depending on your device, screen, and settings.
Product descriptions, ingredients, packaging, availability, and pricing may change from time to time. We reserve the right to discontinue products or limit quantities at our discretion.

Information provided on our website, product packaging, social media, educational materials, or other communications is for general informational purposes only. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or medical condition, and it is not a substitute for individualized medical advice.
Natural does not necessarily mean risk-free. Herbs can have effects on the body and may interact with medications, supplements, health conditions, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or other circumstances. Health Canada specifically recommends that pregnant and breastfeeding people consult a healthcare professional before using natural health products. (Canada)
Please read all product labels and directions before use. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication, managing a health condition, or are unsure whether a particular herb is appropriate for you, consult an appropriate healthcare professional before use.
