Unfortunately, this is not allowed according to the law and regulations.

Why is my product different from the last time I ordered it?
It is normal for an herb to vary slightly in appearance and uniformity of color. Depending on the geographic region and time of the season an herb is harvested, it is not uncommon for different batches of the same herb to vary slightly in their physical appearance and characteristics, including color, aroma, texture, etc. Herbs are natural. Just as color and physical characteristics can vary in nature, so too will the appearance of the final herb or botanical supplement.
Can you take multiple herbal products at the same time?
It is generally safe to take multiple herbal supplements at the same time. However, it is important not to take too much. Everyone responds differently to supplements. If you start combining multiple supplements, pay close attention to any changes in your health, energy levels, or body responses.
