How to Store Herbal Products at Home

How you store a herbal product at home matters. A few simple habits help keep it in good condition until the last dose.

  • Keep it cool and dry. Choose a shelf away from the stove, sink and bathroom steam.
  • Avoid direct sunlight. Heat and light can change the quality of many products.
  • Close the cap tightly after every use, and never leave the pack open.
  • Use a dry, clean spoon for tonics and powders so water does not get inside.
  • Keep out of reach of children.

Always follow the storage instructions printed on the pack, and check the expiry date before use.
