Paul Keogh | Core Botanicals
For more than 35 years, Paul has dedicated his career to advancing the understanding and application of herbal medicine. As a clinician, educator, researcher and product developer, his work has been driven by a simple belief: when traditional knowledge is combined with scientific rigour and uncompromising quality, herbal medicine can play a powerful role in supporting lifelong health.
Today, through Core Botanicals, Paul continues that mission by developing premium Australian-made liquid herbal medicines that bring together decades of clinical experience with modern manufacturing excellence.
A Career Dedicated to Herbal Medicine
Paul's journey into herbal medicine began with a passion for understanding how traditional healing systems could improve people's health and wellbeing. Over more than three decades, he has worked extensively in clinical practice, product development, education and industry consulting, building a reputation as one of Australia's respected voices in herbal medicine.
His experience spans not only treating patients but also helping shape the broader herbal medicine industry through research, professional education and the development of therapeutic products designed to meet high standards of quality and efficacy.
Throughout his career, one principle has remained constant: herbal medicine should always be supported by knowledge, evidence and exceptional manufacturing standards.
Building Core Botanicals
In October 2022, Paul founded Core Botanicals Group Pty Ltd, bringing together more than 35 years of clinical practice, product development and industry consulting into a new generation of Australian-made herbal medicines.
Core Botanicals was created to deliver high-potency liquid herbal medicines formulated with carefully selected ingredients and manufactured to consistently high standards. Every product reflects Paul's belief that effective herbal medicines begin with exceptional raw materials, evidence-informed formulation and manufacturing processes that prioritise purity, potency and consistency.
Rather than simply creating supplements, Core Botanicals focuses on developing therapeutic products that practitioners, health food stores and consumers can trust.
Australian Made with Purpose
Manufacturing in Australia allows Core Botanicals to maintain close oversight of quality, ingredient sourcing and production standards.
For Paul, Australian manufacturing is more than a country-of-origin label. It provides the confidence that every product is developed under strict quality controls while supporting local expertise and manufacturing capability.
Every bottle produced reflects the company's commitment to delivering products that meet the expectations of both healthcare practitioners and consumers seeking trusted herbal medicines.
A Philosophy Built on Quality
Core Botanicals has been built around a simple philosophy: herbal medicine should never require a compromise between traditional wisdom, scientific rigour and manufacturing quality.
Every formulation reflects Paul's belief that effective herbal medicines begin with exceptional ingredients, evidence-informed formulation and manufacturing processes that consistently deliver purity and potency.
This commitment extends beyond manufacturing. It shapes every decision the business makes—from formulation and ingredient selection through to education and supporting practitioners who recommend their products.
Looking Ahead
After more than 35 years working in herbal medicine, Paul continues to pursue the same goal that first inspired his career: developing better herbal medicines that help people live healthier lives.
In October 2022, he founded Core Botanicals Group Pty Ltd, bringing together more than three decades of clinical practice, product development and industry consulting into a new generation of Australian-made herbal medicines. Every formulation reflects the knowledge, experience and passion accumulated throughout his career.
Paul is proud of the products Core Botanicals is bringing to market and the positive outcomes being shared by its growing community of health food stores and customers.
His dedication to advancing the science and clinical application of traditional health systems continues to shape the direction of Core Botanicals. Together with his team, he remains focused on developing high-potency herbal medicines that deliver meaningful therapeutic outcomes while supporting Australians on their lifelong health journey.
Today, Core Botanicals represents the culmination of decades of clinical experience, research, innovation and Australian manufacturing excellence.
