How long will it take to be delivered and how much will it cost?

Postage and Packing:  Orders placed after 12 noon or placed on a Friday, Saturday, Sunday or bank holiday will be despatched the next working day. Next day courier deliveries are not available on a Saturday so orders placed after 12 noon on a Thursday will be despatched on Friday for delivery on Monday. Please allow up to 5 working days although most orders are usually delivered within 1-2 working days.  Orders placed on weekends are despatched first thing on the Monday morning.

UK delivery is FREE for orders over £25, otherwise there’s only a small charge of £3.99.

PLEASE NOTE: The majority of the products ordered from our website are lightweight packs of supplements (rather than heavy jars of oil or soft jells). On occasion it may not be profitable for us to offer free shipment on these heavier items when ordered in bulk. Therefore if an order will cost more than the stated amount to send due to weight we will contact you, the customer, to explain how much it will cost to send. You then have the option to pay the additional charges or you can cancel the order and we will refund the amount paid.

Can I order from outside the UK?

Yes and No! All of our food supplement products are available for delivery world-wide. However, we are unable by law to sell our registered traditional herbal medicines (THRs), including, but not limited to, St John’s Wort and Black Cohosh, to customers living outside of the UK. In order to purchase these registered traditional herbal medicines (THRs) your shipping address must be registered in the UK. As our online shop is unable to distinguish between which products are food supplements or traditional herbal medicines, any traditional herbal medicines that are ordered by overseas customers for delivery outside of the UK will be manually cancelled and a full refund will be given. However, you will still receive any food supplements which may form part of that order. All customers will be notified via email as and when this occurs in case they wish to cancel the entire order, including food supplements.
