Jim's Colon Pills are created using only north American herbs from sources Jim has been working with for years. Each harvest of herbs is tested for contaminants when received and retested 30 days later to assure that they contain no contaminants (and nothing is growing on the herbs like fungus or mold). In contrast to standard practices where the herbs could be grown anywhere in the world, sold through brokers and are rarely tested.
