A government is the body within a community, political entity or organization which has the authority to make and enforce rules, laws, and regulations. Typically, the term "government" refers to a civil government or sovereign state which can be either local, national, or international. However, commercial, academic, religious, or other formal organizations are also governed by internal bodies. Such bodies may be called boards of directors, managers, or governors or they may be known as the administration (as in schools) or councils of elders (as in churches). The size of governments can vary by region or purpose. Growth of an organization advances the complexity of its government, therefore small towns or small-to-medium privately-operated enterprises will have fewer officials than typically larger organizations such as multinational corporations which tend to have multiple interlocking, hierarchical layers of administration and governance. As complexity increases and the nature of governance becomes more complicated, so does the need for formal policies and procedures. From Wikipedia under the

I don't think I know the answer to this either, but I can tell you that in the U.S. herbal remedies are not regulated in the same way as traditional pharmaceuticals. For example, drugs are regulated by the FDA, and herbs are not. Before a drug can be sold, the company must provide a sufficient amount of scientific data/evidence that proves its relative safety vs the benefit it provides, and approves appropriate doses, etc. Then the FDA regulates the manufacturing process and the company must demonstrate a process for quality control, etc. In addition, the FDA regulates how the company sells the product by monitoring the claims that are made.
