clippings as SJW (or as any other herbal supplement)?

I think not. Drug companies have to guarantee purity and content in
their products: between 97 and 103% of posted content for branded
drugs and 85-115% for generics (as I recall -- I might be off by a few
points). Can herbal supplement sellers say the same? No.

They should steer clear of homeopathic pills. All that lactose could
hurt them.
