I think it's a good idea to put a warning on the packages of catnip so people don't think it's for human consumption.  \n\nOtherwise, I can't see what the problem would be unless you used a bunch of poisonous insecticide on the peppermint and chamomile.  If you did, you should also include a warning that says: not for human consumption.  And make it clear that the herbs that you are selling are for potpourri or decorative purposes only.

I can't imagine it would be "dangerous" but if you are on chemical blood thinners (coumadin) & ate loads of garlic it might have an affect on your blood? Really not too sure about that one so you should ask your doc or pharmacist if you take that kind of medicine. If you DON'T take meds, then NO, I'd say it wasn't "dangerous" to consume that much. You might have trouble finding somebody to snuggle up with you for kisses, tho!!! Garlic is good when roasted with olive oil out on the grill!!! Enjoy it!!! (you might want to move to Gilroy, CA - home of the Garlic Festival!!)

Yeah, it is. Not everything that is natural is good for you. Look at how we get lead poisoning, poison oak, poisonous berries, poisonous mushrooms, etc, etc.

No.  The human body needs an abundance of potassium and very little in the way of sodium.  Most people get things backwards.\n\nYou cannot die from eating too many bananas.  You may start scratching your armpits and going "Ook, Ook, Ook", but you can't die from it.\n\n(Just kidding on that last part)\n\n-Dio

None that I know of. Why would instant food cause cancer? The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are generally very strict about the safety of our food. If you hear that cancer was caused by some type of food, it usually means that lab rats were fed an incredibly large amount of it for a couple of years and then they got cancer. For example, they may have been given the human equivalent of a case of soda a day for six years. Don't worry about your instant food. It's simply been processed in a way that makes it cook faster. Don't believe everything you hear on the street. Most people don't know what they're talking about.

Capsian (not sure of the spelling) that's in hot peppers are excellent for your health. They speed up your metabolism. It's kinda like a chemical workout for your body. It increases presperation, heart rate and helps your digestive system. \n  Just make sure they're not too hot for you, some people are sensative to peppers. You don't want blisters on your tongue from them and if they're bothering your rear when they finish passing through your body (trying to say this as nice as possible), then cut down or change what type of pepper you're eating.

It is not wheat and dairy that you have to careful of. You should avoid or cut down on the consumption of spicy food, fried food, chocolates and coffee for a while. I tried it and they disappeared. Try it!!

Good question. Well your liver and kidneys can put up with a lot, but some things they just cant process. Like for instance too much carrots can turn you yellow, and thiamine acid can turn you reddish, but it would take a lot to do so. Also each person is different so consult your doctor. Bit from my point of view eating healthy is OK, just REALLY mo niter those supplements because accidents happen, and it could really hurt you. Your best bet is just to go talk to a doctor or nutritionist

I think chili peppers are one of those things that fall under the category of "herbs" as far as science is concerned.  This means they may not have really tested it.  But what we have are years and years of peoples' experiences.  It is said that chili pepper can bolster the immune system and also can cause endorphins to be released, which can serve as a slight pain reliever and mood enhancer.  But they also can irritate the lining of your stomach and cause esophageal reflux.  Some people can tolerate hot spicy food more than others.  \n\nOther than the chili peppers, there are many very beneficial spices in Indian food.  Turmeric is an excellent digestive aid.  Turmeric is the ingredient in curry which makes it yellow.  Fenugreek, fennel seeds, cumin seeds, cardamom - all of these have a reputation for health benefits.  These are regular ingredients in Indian food.  I am not as familiar with Thai.\n\nAnother great thing about Indian food is they use a lot of vegetables, and that in itself is healthy.

Sometimes, but not very often. What I rather do is slip them off under the table in a romantic restaurant and put them in my husband's pocket. I believe that salt and pepper should not be the only spice at dinner time.

Salt is bad for EVERYONE. Not just guys. It's good to eat a little because it has Iodine, a necessary nutrient, in it. To much can cause high blood pressure and/or clog your ateries.
