I do not know if it is useful. Here in Italy we have a company that, as stated on its website. has "His Study Centre, with researchers and experts, is committed every day to retrieve the immense cultural heritage of the world of herbs." Aboca is his name (search in web, Google i,e,).
It does not belong to the world of Big Pharma, but the quality of its products is a certainty.
