Waiting For Their Response

After watching the Dr. Oz segment on the internet, I felt I had to contact both Dr. Oz, and Terri Trespicio. I am now waiting to see if they respond. As a clinical herbalist, it is scary to be watching uninformed people give out advice on national television. Especially advice that is wrong. I have had several clients contact me about the segment, and I have had to tell them that both Dr. Oz and Ms. Trespicio were wrong. Lemon balm oil is not for stress. Lemon balm tincture is. I can just imagine how many people out there that saw the show and are now ordering lemon balm oil and drinking it. Luckily, with my clients I can talk to them, but I can not reach the thousands ordering lemon balm oil from another company. It also scares me to think that someone would buy lemon balm essential oil, not knowing the difference and take that internally. Essential oils should never be taken internally. Doctors should not be giving out advice on herbal medicine, unless they know what they are talking about. I wonder if they realize, that they could be in for some very expensive law suits.
