Natural Medicines Database is hands down one of the best memberships to have as a nutritionist or herbalist. If you are connected to a university as a student or faculty, you can access through your school. If you are a member of IFM, you can access through that membership. Or you can purchase it directly.
As a nutritionist or herbalist, it is important to double-check prescription drug and supplement/herb interactions. It is also important to look up prescription drug and nutrient depletions on every medication your client is taking. Document in your chart. You can access links to primary references for easier research. Each herb, supplement and nutrient has a monograph with information about safety, efficacy, dosing and interactions.
