Description
For sample adults in 2007 who had taken two or more herbal supplements during the past 30 days (HERMO) and had taken the second herbal supplement to treat a specific health problem or condition (HER2TREAT), HER2TOINJ indicates whether the person had used an herbal supplement to treat another injury.

Additionally, there are 30 other conditions that both sample adults and sample children could report treating with herbal supplements in 2007. For the full list of conditions, see HER2TREAT.
Persons taking more than one herbal supplement during the past 30 days were asked whether their first herbal supplement was used to treat a specific problem or condition (HER1TREAT) and, if so, what was that condition. Similarly, persons taking vitamin supplements during the past 30 days (VITMO) were asked whether those vitamin supplements were used to treat a specific condition (see VIT1TREAT and VIT2TREAT).
HER2MOST reports the specific second herbal supplement (out of 45 possible herbs) that was taken most often by the respondent. Analysts interested in the treatment of another injury by other herbal or vitamin supplements should see the related variables HER1TOINJ, VIT1TOINJ, and VIT2TOINJ. The corresponding variables HER2MOST, VIT1MOST, and VIT2MOST indicate which herbal or vitamin supplement was taken.
Sample adults, but not sample children, were also asked about their use of herbal supplements to prevent (rather than to treat) health problems or conditions (HER1PREV and HER2PREV). Researchers interested in the use of herbal supplements to prevent another injury should see HER1POINJ and HER2POINJ. For more information on the full range of variables related to the use of herbal supplements, see HERMO.
