BMC Medicine published a study on herbal supplements. Most of the supplements studied were of low quality, a third did not contain at all the herb claimed but, e.g., rice power or laxative. A third contained unlisted substances.[24][25]
Some supplements were contamined by rodent feces and urine.[22]
