Innovative products from plants and herbs
Using herbs and plants as a medicine and a food is Thai wisdom. For a long time, Thais have used them for disease prevention, treatment and health care. In an age when the world is full of chemicals which are harmful to health, it raises safety questions, and more and more people are turning to herbs for therapeutic and health care because they are safe and causing no side effects.
This leads to the use of extracts from plants and herbs attuned for the modern lifestyle. They become innovative herbal health care products which are unique, adding values for Thai herbs to be internationally recognised.
