Hey Cammi

Just a normal pot...with some water...he gives you the instructions...but it's just basically boiling in a cup(s) of water.

Takes about 30 minutes or so to cook them...so you have to be organised as you need to have it before breakfast (I wasn't ever organised!!!)

I really can't remember the exact amount...but I have a feeling it was about $40 for 1-2 weeks supply of herbs...I remember thinking it was a lot cheaper than I thought it would be...

No...not seeing the herbalist now...I didn't last incredibly long...maybe a couple of months...I just couldn't bear the smell/taste of the herbs...

But...I know other people have had success...so all the best!
