Yes, it is the same, but at one or two cups a day, the dose is quite small. I have use Traditional Medicinals teas for over 40 years without any adverse effects. I just have to carefully read each label to make sure there are no plants to which I am allergic.
And yes to the poisoning. My sister got pancreatitis and kidney failure from overuse of imported herbal supplements, and now has liver failure as well.
Maybe that is why I sometimes come post so strongly about about supplements.

Sue,
I understand your concern about using some herbal supplements especially, if they are not good quality. I would never buy a supplement made overseas. I would never attempt to diagnose myself with herbs.
I have been using a naturopath for over 30 years and she has a way of selecting herbs that always help me and they are of high quality. Many times these herbs have cured me of viruses and bacterial infections where MDs have failed.
Recently I had strep starting on August 13. The Docs had me go through 4 different antibiotics over 30 days and it did not cure the strep. My naturopath put me on several high quality herbs and within 5 days the symptoms were gone and I stayed on them for 10 days to ensure that I was well.
She uses a machine called Zyto which measures the frequency of the bug and can select the correct herb to counter act it. Many people do not believe in Zyto and you will probably find many negative comments online. For me it works and it also depends on the practitioner that uses it. Every practitioner has varying abilities. I am fortunate enough to have found a practioner that is excellent.
