The Dietary Supplement Health and Education
Act (DSHEA) of 1994 codified manufacturing
of products based on “medicinal
herbs.” The conventional flavoring and fragrance
industry, which depends, in part, on
herbs, has its own standards. Sales of encapsulated
herbs rose steeply from 1994 to about
1998—then plateaued. Some products saw a
steep decline in sales. No separate information
is available on sales of products made
from organic herbs. The organic labeling status
of dietary supplements has recently been
clarified (see box). Materials come from five
or six large botanicals dealers, networks of
contract growers, or vertical integrators.
