Medi-Herbs are a professional line of herbal therapeutic supplements from Australia and distributed in the U.S. by Standard Process, Inc. Finally, due to SP we now have therapeutic herbs in the U.S., as all other herbal companies in the U.S. produce herbs for maintenance use, not therapeutic.
When Dr. Smith recommends a particular whole food therapeutic supplement, she will list the primary purpose for recommendation in the right column of the Therapeutic Supplement Program of Care (POC) form. However, this form does not allow space to put all the additonal benefits you may receive, nor other purposes for which this supplement may be recomended. Hence, we have uploaded this document for your review and education.

3 -Creating Desktop File Folders AND saving PDF documents into them.
Submitting Total Health Care Costs to IRS
When preparing your income and expense records for your Income Tax Return each year, be sure to total the amount paid from each Invoice you have received from us and give the Grand Total to your CPA to add with medical expenses, if any, for your "Total Health Care Costs" for the year.
IRS provides a deduction for health care costs that includes our services and products. For some the total has to be a certain amount to receive this deduction, so including our invoice paid amounts may be the difference between receiving that deduction or not.
Therefore, either keep all invoices from us in a home file folder or three-hold punch them upon receipt and insert them at the back of Tab #9 or #10 for quick access when needed.
What To Do When My PEP Binder Is Full?
When the PEP binder we sent you is starting to get full, purchase the following items:
One 3-inch, 3-ring binder with outside (front/back) clear pockets and inside front and back pockets.
Note: Below will be providing a Title Label for the narrow end of the binder so that when you sit the binder on a bookshelf you can read the title of the binder to know what it contains.
And a Cover Sheet to insert into the front clear pocket of the outside of the PEP Binder.
If you need both of these before they are posted below on this web page, contact the office and they will be emailed to you.
One package of Notebook Dividers with 10 Index Tabs.
Then transfer all documents currently in Tab #2, #3, #5, #6, #7 and #9 to the new binder, except for:
The first and latestHealth Appraisal Comprehensive Summary Bargraph Reports and How To Interpret the HAC Report.
The first and latest copy of each Laboratory Report for blood, urine, saliva, hair and stool, whichever you have had tested and the Educational Documentation in Tab #2 that helps you understand how to read the Lab Reports.

You may have noticed Google is now placing a padlock icon to the left of some website addresses as an attempt to designate "secure" vs. "unsecure" website. They are particularly interested in adding padlocks to website to assure the public that websites with shopping carts are secure for financial transactions, and not so much as a way to say the website is free of malware.
Our website does not have a shopping cart because it is what is termed an "information only" website. So our website has no need for a padlock. Regardless of the reason, they are unable to add the padlock to our secure website because it is an older web design from the 1990's. Therefore, no matter what warnings they may give you, rest assured that this website is secure.
