What are herbal supplements / botanicals
'Botanicals' is not a one-size-fits-all concept:
On this website
On this website we start from how botanicals are seen in nutrition and in herbal medicine (phytotherapy).
This view of botanicals is based on a broad definition: it involves substances obtained from organisms in the plant kingdom that have bioactive (health-promoting) effects.
That can be flowering plants, mosses, herbaceous plants, fruits, vegetables, grasses, algae, trees etcetera, both annual and perennial. And it can come from all parts of these organisms: roots, tubers, stems, leaves, fruits, flowers, bark, seeds, or the whole organism.
Botany
The definition of herbaceous plants in botany is much narrower: An herbaceous plant or herb is a vascular plant that has no or very little woodiness and no (or very little) secondary thickness growth. Thus, herbaceous plants have no stem, stems or branches that thicken annually [Wikipedia definition].
In the kitchen
Kitchen herbs are dried (in leaf or powder form) parts of herbaceous plants used to enhance the flavor of food. Fresh herbs are also used (basil, mint, thyme). In traditional use, herbs were also used to preserve food. The bioactivity of herbs used in cooking does not play a significant role: the primary concern is taste and at most secondarily possible positive health effects.
