I've been asked why my Arnica costs more than other vendors. Quality, period. One seller I know of sells Mexican Arnica! True Arnica comes from Elevations over 2700 feet! We carry ONLY Arnica Montana; We get ours from Germany between Nuremberg and Munich. Don't be fooled by cheap imitations anyone who sells Heterotheca inuloides shows their poor quality. You can also tell by the scientific name it isn't at all related to Arnica Montana! What else are they selling you that is poor quality?!! Makes one wonder!
There is a major difference between Arnica grown in Europe and “Arnica” from Mexico:
The plant grown in Mexico is not Arnica at all. The species name for Mexico-grown “Arnica” is actually Heterotheca inuloides. Although both plants share similar uses, Heterotheca is not an Arnica plant species. Additionally, this plant is more readily available and far less expensive’ It is also known as “False arnica, Árnica mexicana, Árnica del país”
