I use Honey Bee-Healthy.  I can not say that is a good help in bee health.
No control group to put it up against.
I know a little about herbal medicine for humans. Its been around for a
long time.
I'm doing everything natural to help my bees. I use IPM. Screen board,
Russian stock ( Blue line that has been weeded out by me ) and Fumidil-B.
I added Honey bee Healthy last year..
I had a 2% loss during winter. Healthy bees going into winter , with
plenty of stores and good ventilation.
Moisture is the real killer here in Western Washington.
I will not stop using Honey Bee Healthy and do a control test. I'm in
the honey business.  Not research.
We are very fortunate to have so many good researchers working for us in
beekeeping. The magic bullet
is,all of us working together. Maybe some-one will go deeper into the
oils used in honey bee healthy.
I don't need it myself. I go with what seems to work for me.
Don't think Honey bee healthy will solve you mite problem. Its only one
step in healthy bees.
Best Regards
Roy
