Helping to Ensure that your Herbal Products are Safe, Effective and Legally Compliant.
Dr. Bill Schoenbart, L.Ac., D.A.O.M
I have been working with medicinal herbs since 1969, with a clinical practice in traditional Chinese herbal medicine since 1991. My work has taken me through every aspect of the herb industry: research, manufacturing, product safety, botanical identity, efficacy, label reviews, trade associations, teaching, and clinical practice. Herbal medicine is not just a business to me – it is my life.

Our clients work with Herbal Product Consulting for a simple reason: better products and a better business. The dietary supplement industry makes an important contribution to the health and well-being of the population at large. It is also one of those industries that thrives during economic downturns, and recently, during a pandemic. But the days of creating products and releasing them to the marketplace without proper preparation are long gone.
A few words from some of my clients
"Bill was a pleasure to work with. He was able to efficiently review our current herbal formulations and suggest improvements. He was extremely helpful in providing scientific resources for each herbal ingredient, and he went above and beyond with guiding us on sourcing top quality products."
- Eve Beamish, Manukora (Auckland, New Zealand)
"Five Flavors Herbs has turned to Bill Schoenbart for support with regulatory issues, including navigating the complexities of dietary supplement labels. We believe that he's unique in the breadth of his knowledge of botanicals. Very few people, if any, have 30 plus years experience as an herbal clinician, researcher, and writer, as well as possessing expertise in regulatory affairs. Bill's company, Herbal Product Consulting, is where we seek guidance and support in these matters."
- Benjamin Zappin, Five Flavors Herbs
