About us

Back in 1998 when we realized that many people in  the Russian and Ukrainian communities sought and needed herbal remedies available in their home countries but not in the United States, he decided to do something about it and founded the wholesale company ATE Nutritionals. At that time the company offered 20 of the most popular herbal and natural remedies from Russia and the Ukraine. The company was so successful that the product selection grew to over 300 items by 2001 and HerbHealer expanded its distribution to over 200 businesses in the United States and Canada. Given the business’s success and the popularity, Willie decided that the Internet provided the best medium to reach the general American market and decided to launch the site Herbhealer.com.  This website represents Willie’s effort to create a unique site.   In contrast with the numerous herbal remedy, vitamin, and dietary supplement sites on the Internet, Herbhealer distinguishes itself because the site specializes in distributing herbs, natural remedies, dietary supplements, and natural cosmetics popular throughout the world, but unknown in the United States. For example, Sea-Buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides) enjoys great popularity in Eastern Europe as a treatment for many skin conditions and to combat premature aging. Herbhealer offers a variety of products with Sea-Buckthorn, previously unavailable in the United States. In a similar manner Herbhealer distributes products from the root of the Burdock plant (Articum lappa). Used for millennia in China, Japan, and Europe, Burdock purifies toxins from the blood and the body, treats infections, and is an excellent source of iron. In addition Herbhealer offers a large selection of natural cosmetics popular in Central and Easter Europe. In fact, Herbhealer currently stands as the sole importer and distributor of Dead Sea Minerals cosmetics from Israel. We are always searching for new products from other countries.   Herbhealer aims to provide the consumers with a site to purchase natural remedies and cosmetics previously unavailable in the United States. In this manner the company aspires to aid the development of homeopathy and holistic healing and alternative treatment. In addition to purchasing products, eventually the site will become a forum where both consumers and health care professionals can find and exchange information about medicinal products, dietary supplements, and alternative treatments. Consumers will consult with experts on alternative medicine; users will eventually place questions on message boards to search for answers and browse a directory of alternative medical practitioners such as chiropractors, Chinese doctors, acupuncturists, and other holistic healers. Eventually experts in the field can participate in online consultation and chat rooms on a regular basis.   Given the growing popularity of alternative treatment, at times people know more about natural remedies than Western doctors. Thus Herbhealer can function as a meeting point where doctors can consult with holistic healers so that they can treat their patients better. In addition the site plans to work as a portal for health spas throughout the USA and the world. The spas can advertise their services and the consumers can make travel arrangements.   Thank you for visiting our site and taking the time to learn about us.
