Herbal supplements, no.
Is it so much cheaper from Indian seller than from EU one?

Yeah its almost 5 times more expensive to buy it from Eu based seller since it is manufactured in India. And liv 52 is by farthe best supplement for detoxifying liver without side effects.

That £11.50 for 5 double strength with free p&p? Especially if you are staying below 20€, I would "dare" to order those.

Hi!
There is a list of some supplements which can be imported and that too must be labeled. Currently, the Food Supplement Directive for the European Union permits 13 different vitamins with 45 allowable sources and 17 minerals with a total of 136 allowable sources.
