Rue Vanilla Flavor
TerraVita
Overview
The effectiveness of this product as a dietary supplement is largely unproven. While it contains Rue, a traditional herb, there is a significant lack of high-quality clinical research to support its efficacy for health benefits, especially in the glycerite liquid extract form. The inclusion of "Vanilla Flavor" further suggests its primary role might be as a flavoring agent rather than a therapeutic supplement.
The Good
Alcohol-free formulation using glycerin may be suitable for those avoiding alcohol.
Contains a unique botanical ingredient for those interested in traditional herbal remedies.
The Bad
Significant safety concerns regarding Rue due to potential photosensitivity, hepatotoxicity, and abortifacient effects.
Lack of high-quality clinical evidence to support any purported health benefits of Rue glycerite extract.
Dosage of Rue (0.13 mL of 1:5 extract per serving) is not supported by established efficacy or safety research.
