Blue Poppy was founded in 1982 by Bob Flaws and Honora Wolfe—both first generation TCM pioneers, both firmly committed and tireless in their efforts to establish and support our fledgling profession. Bob and Honora are now enjoying a well-deserved retirement, but Blue Poppy continues to thrive.
After publishing books about TCM in English the first range of TCM Herbal Supplements - Blue Poppy Herbs Originals – was conceived. Now the Blue Poppy Herbs range includes
- concentrated traditional formulas in tablets and capsules – Blue Poppy Classics
- pediatric liquid formulas – Blue Poppy Pediatric Formulas
- effective topical formulas – Blue Poppy Original Formulas
- unique formulations based on modern Chinese research – Blue Poppy Original Formulas
- new ground-breaking, excipient-free granules that feature many single herbs and more formulas than most other brands – Blue Poppy Granule Formulas and Singles
- Balance and Tempo needle lines
- People’s Herb
