I guess that was the point AP was trying to make, that some herbal medicines that have been shunned in favour of extracts or synthetic compounds, may actually be just as effective if not more so for valid chemical reasons Thanks for the comments Andrew.

Herbal medicine, if effective, should be treated with the broadest sense of possibility. This finding that the Fe(II) is in a complexed state typifies the problem.
