"Herbs used in cooking are typically composed of leaves and stems. This makes for an easy way to distinguish Herbs from spices. But can Herbs be spices and can spices be herbs? Yes. Many Herbs are used to flavor foods, thus meeting the definition of a spice, and most spices can be used for medicinal purposes, thus meeting the second definition of an Herb. Absent from this chapter is a discussion of salt (sodium chloride), which we consider a seasoning as it is not an Herb or spice. For information on sodium and salt alternatives, see page 732."
