Tips on Handling
Medicinal Plants /
Herbs
”
1. If possible, buy herbs that are grown
organically – without pesticides.

2. Medicinal parts of plants are best

harvested on sunny mornings. Avoid
picking leaves, fruits or nuts during and
after heavy rainfall.
3. Leaves, fruits, flowers or nuts must be
mature before harvesting. Less medicinal
substances are found on young parts.

4. After harvesting, if drying is required, it is

advisable to dry the plant parts either in the
oven or air-dried on screens above ground
and never on concrete floors.
5. Store plant parts in sealed plastic bags
or brown bottles in a cool dry place
without sunlight preferably with a moisture
absorbent material like charcoal. Leaves
and other plant parts that are prepared
properly, well-dried and stored can be
used up to six months.
Tips on Preparation
for Intake of Herbal
Medicines
1. Use only half the dosage prescribed for
fresh parts like leaves when using dried
parts.

2. Do not use stainless steel utensils when

boiling decoctions. Only use earthen,
enamelled, glass or alike utensils.

3. As a rule of thumb, when boiling leaves
and other plant parts, do not cover the pot,
and boil in low flame.

4. Decoctions loose potency after some

time. Dispose of decoctions after one day.
To keep fresh during the day, keep
lukewarm in a flask or thermos.
 5. Always consult with a doctor if
symptoms persist or if any sign of allergic
reaction develops.
