Click on this link: Damiana Leaf Extract COA, to view the Certificate of Analysis of this particular batch.  These capsules are filled by hand with a manual encapsulation machine, not with a high speed automatic machine, and thus, only pure, unadulterated Damiana Extract is in the capsules. Capsules produced with high speed machines in herbal remedy and vitamin "factories" contain several other ingredients, including preservatives because so many bottles of product are produced at one time, and lubricants to ensure that the machines will run faster and more efficiently. Check their labels! Also, Barlowe's Herbal Elixirs is one of the very few manufacturers that still pack their products in glass whenever possible, even though glass is more expensive.  Barlowe believes that chemicals can leach out of plastic containers and contaminate the contents, and that the use of glass is much better for the environment.
