        Trying to get back into this program.  I really want to finish it.  A friend told me her mother was a “Herbologist”.  What is the difference between a “Herbologist” and an “Herbalist”?

          There is no difference between herbalist and herbologist. Two names for the same hat. Though the etymology of the term herbology does suggest actual study of the plants and plant lore.  But heck, if we aren’t studying them we probably shouldn’t be using them right. Hence our coming together here. LOL.

          Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.
