Product Disclaimers & Safety Information

At Sacred Forest Herbals, we craft our products with care, intention, and the finest organic and wildcrafted botanicals. We believe in the wisdom of plants and the power of nature to support your well-being. However, we want to be transparent about what our products are — and what they are not. Please read the following disclaimers carefully before using any of our offerings.

Medical Disclaimer

The information provided on this website, in product descriptions, and on product labels is for educational and informational purposes only. It is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something you have read on this website.

FDA Statement

These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. Our products — including herbal teas, salves, balms, oils, and herbal mixes — are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. They are dietary supplements and cosmetic products, not medicines.

External Use Only

Unless explicitly stated otherwise on the product label or description, our topical products (salves, oils, balms, lotions, and body scrubs) are for external use only. Do not ingest topical products. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Avoid contact with eyes.

Pregnancy & Nursing

If you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have a known medical condition, consult your healthcare provider before using any of our herbal products. Some herbs may interact with medications or are not recommended during pregnancy or while nursing. This is especially important for our teas, herbal steams, and aromatherapy products.

Allergens & Sensitivities

While we strive to use organic and natural ingredients, our products are handcrafted in small batches in a facility that handles various botanicals, nuts, and plant-derived materials. If you have known allergies — including but not limited to nuts, gluten, or specific plants — please review the ingredient list on each product carefully and consult with your healthcare provider before use. Discontinue use immediately if you experience any irritation or adverse reaction.

Individual Results

Results from using our herbal products may vary from person to person. We cannot guarantee specific outcomes. Our products are intended to support general wellness and are not a replacement for a balanced diet, healthy lifestyle, or medical treatment.

Herbal Teas

Our loose-leaf herbal teas are intended for brewing and consumption as a beverage. Do not consume raw herbs. Follow brewing instructions provided with each product. If you experience any adverse reactions, discontinue use immediately and consult a healthcare professional. Our teas are not intended for use by children under the age of 12 without parental guidance and healthcare provider approval.

Home Décor & Candles

Our wall hangings, smudge sticks, and candles are decorative and spiritual in nature. Never leave burning candles or smudge sticks unattended. Keep away from drafts, children, and pets. Trim wicks to ¼ inch before each burn. Follow all care and safety instructions provided with each product.

Seeds & Plants

Our seeds are sold for planting purposes only. Germination rates and plant growth depend on many factors beyond our control, including climate, soil, and care. We cannot guarantee specific growing outcomes. Follow planting instructions provided with each seed variety.
