Should you take all of these herbs for separately or together in one comprehensive formula?

Health professionals recommend that you take these herbs together if possible for many reasons:

1. Taking each herb separately could prove very costly as you would have to buy many different supplements.
   
   
2. Mixing and matching herbs on your own could be dangerous to your health.
   
   
3. Many herbs working together can offer more therapeutic benefits, often better than a single herb on its own.
   
   
4. All of these herbs have to be balanced perfectly in order to be optimally effective.
