This was written by Michael Castleman, author of The New Healing Herbs:

Every so often, an article will pop up in the paper about the dangers of herbs and the risks they pose when compared to manufactured drugs. Skeptics are quick to charge that herbs are “unregulated,” that many are “hazardous,” and that those who consume these remedies are “naive.” Non-suicide fatalities (accidental deaths) set a record: 1,756 people. How many of these deaths were attributable to medicinal herbs? ZERO (American Association of Poison Control Centers (AAPCC)). In every single accidental poisoning death caused by a pharmacological product, the culprit was a pharmaceutical. Keep this in mind the next time you hear someone telling you to avoid herbs completely.
