In this episode, good friend Amber Lynn Vitale joins us to unpack the many layers of one of the hottest new supplements in the past year, Berberine. She shared what's real, based on science and as a consumer how to spot a poorly made version of Berberine.What is Berberine?Berberine is found in Goldenseal, Oregon Grape, and Turmeric Tree also known as Barberry. In all these plants Berberine comes from the roots, and is used in Chinese, Ayurvedic, and Western herbalism. Bitter and Astringent, it is traditionally known to reduce fat and improve sugar metabolism by improving glucose and lipid receptor expression.Numerous studies on Berberine show it supports healthy:Blood Sugar levelsLipid profileBlood PressureInflammatory responseWeight and Body CompositionCognitive functionReproductive function…especially researched in PCOSBerbevis clinical studies show benefits in body composition with fat redistribution away from the organs, glucose and insulin metabolism, and bioavailability with respect to both absorption and half-life potency.Guest: Amber Lynn Vitale, CN is Board Certified in Holistic Nutrition® and a Certified Dietary Supplement Professional™. She is also an Ayurvedic Clinical Consultant on faculty with Wild Rose College of Herbal Medicine, and on the advisory board for Natural Practitioner and Taste for Life magazines. Amber's journey in the healing arts developed richly as she worked for years in practices with Integrative Physicians, Acupuncturists, Chiropractors, and Nurses. Since 2008 she has been producing written and video educational content for many publications, an educational YouTube channel, and Instagram and Facebook pages. By 2012 she had realized that raw materials sourcing, labeling transparency, legitimate certifications, and educational support were the criteria that would set quality natural products brands apart from the rest; and she made it her mission to educate both the practitioner and the public about the standards that ensure a reliable product.  Recently she founded Trifecta for Health, LLC using her years of experience to develop synergistic health protocols tailored to individual needs, and provide brand support for the best supplemental products currently available.Read More about BerberineLearn more about Emerald Labs Berberine Phytosome Use the code Forever to get 20% Off your order at Emeraldlabs.com

STIs and STDs are increasing substantially over the last few years, but that's not the only concern. The greater concern is why, especially since people having sex has not substantially increased. At the beginning of the Covid lockdown, people who were on the dating scene or sexually active were halted and forced into a dry spell, and the world of finding partners slowed down greatly. Then, when the lockdowns were over, people went into high gear, searching for partners and making up for lost time. All this did was rebalance the previous lockdown dry spell. Meanwhile, worldwide sexual actively stayed relativity the same on the average. So why the rapidly increasing STIs and STDs? The crash of the antibiotic and anti-viral era. Antibiotics and anti-virals are weakening and the sexually transmitted bacteria and viruses are strengthening, and lately the bacteria is making a strong comeback. Antibiotics are not holding their title as being the cure all for bacterial infections. Sepsis is also on the rise from bacterial infections taking over and attacking blood, lymph and organs. Bacteria is getting smarter, and not just Chlamydia and Syphilis, but all bacteria such as Strep. The Industry has bombarded the sickness world with epic amounts of antibiotics for every illness without the understanding or caution towards what this can—and has—led to. Stubborn sexually transmitted bacteria that doesn't respond well to antibiotics is starting to lead the way to ongoing, long-term, low-grade STIs that can easily spread and deep root themselves in the body. At this point in time, all bacteria and viruses are on the upsurge and can easily pass from one person to another. What's needed is the understanding of how the body's immune system works and what the best immune system supporting options are. The best quality Propolis and Goldenseal are extremely helpful for Sexually Transmitted Infections, alongside your doctor's protocols and guidance. Propolis and Goldenseal are key foundations to the bacterial and viral pathogenic war humankind is up against. It isn't just failure of the antibiotics and the strengthening of the pathogen mutations, it's the failure and weakening of our immune systems as well, plus the overall immune system consciousness needs to heal. It's more than possible to flip the direction into less STDs, STIs and less viral and bacterial infections that aren't STIs or STDs, but all-around pathogens that are transmitted and contracted through bodily contact and bodily fluids. In this episode… • Learn how the pharmaceutical industry and hierarchy doesn't want anyone wise about STIs and STDs, and wants people to believe that all sexually transmitted bugs are the same. • Discover why STDs, and even not-so-common ones, are on the rise and spreading fast, and whether or not it's due to an increase in global sexual activity. • Learn about antibiotics when it comes to STIs & STDs, how they are passed around like candy, and how they are changing the structure of bacteria. • Discover the difference between low-grade and high-grade bacteria, and how STDs can present themselves differently in men and women. • Learn about what menstruation and ovulation have to do with a woman's immune system, and how that plays a part in more women getting diagnosed with STDs than men. • Uncover how antibiotics can strengthen bacteria. • Discover how one STD bug can be passed down through the centuries and what history that bug may have. • Learn why STD breakouts still occur despite the barrage of antibiotics out there (hint: it has to do with the hierarchy and the industry). • Discover why it's not about avoiding the doctor, but knowing how to protect yourself along the way. • Uncover what specific supplements are a poison to STD and STI bacteria and viruses. All this and more, tune in and don't miss out on this important episode. You can revisit this episode anytime you need it. For more information visit www.medicalmedium.com

We were able to sneak in a podcast before Charles leaves for Scotland & Holly for NOLA! Holly is on a panel this year at Tales of the Cocktail and in honor of this New World Whisky Panel, we discuss M&H Israeli Whisky Distillery. They recently won World Whiskies Awards 2023 World's Best Single Malt with their sherry-matured single malt whisky. They beat out Scotch, Irish, and single malts from all over the world! Also, I think it's fair to say, Holly gets a grade of C for her blind tasting attempt which is not a fail so she'll take it. To see our upcoming trips, look here.

It's been a month but we have good reasons! I hope you're all up for it but Holly is going to tell you all about her Islay/Water of Life Film trip. No need to get fomo though because we let you know about upcoming trips that you can join as well! Then we discuss the exciting times for Glenglassaugh Distillery even though we're a bit nervous. That has been a hidden gem of the highlands and we hope it doesn't become too popular. I know that's selfish so, fine, we hope you all enjoy it as much as we do! Watch the Water of Life Film here!

This episode has a dash of a psychology lesson. Holly thinks everything she tastes is Craigellachie and Charles thinks everything is New World Whisky. The lesson learned: blind tasting does not necessarily get easier! Our minds get in the way! In this episode, you'll watch Holly basically fall apart in her blind tasting while we discuss our upcoming trips to Scotland. Our distillery feature is Kilchoman as Holly prepares for her trip to Islay in two weeks. Did you know Kilchoman and the Wills family are building a rum distillery in Barbados too? That family is so cool. And then, it's a bit of old news but we discuss the Penelope buy-out with MGP. It makes sense for both parties and how impressive after just 5 years. Congrats, Penelope! We're lucky we got all of our single casks when we did and wow were they delicious. Please leave us a review wherever you are listening as well. We appreciate you! Cheers!

Hey there, Mommas! Welcome to another episode of The Herbalist's Path! Today, we're talking all things chamomile. This herb is a total powerhouse and can be used in so many different ways besides just for calming the nervous system. Did you know that chamomile is great for digestive health and anxiety? It can ease stomach cramping, bloating, and even diarrhea. Chamomile is also an astringent and diaphoretic, which means it helps your body release heat through your pores and sweat. Plus, it's perfect for reducing smooth muscle spasming and cramping in your tummy. Chamomile can even be used for eye infections! Just whip up a fresh batch of chamomile tea, add some goldenseal and fennel, and gently wash over the eye with a compress a few times a day. So, grow it in your garden and start sipping on some tea, because chamomile is going to change your life, my friend! Don't forget to also grab my free download: 5 Medicinal Herbs Every MOM Must Grow!Hey there, Mommas!

We just had a class with Cara & Justin King of King's Family Distillery in Tennessee so that is our featured distillery for this episode. Although they are "sourcers" they are "sorcerers" in my eyes. They come from a grain merchant family and Justin even worked at MGP so they have access to pretty amazing barrels all over the country. They also have the relationships to really get what they want. They also aren't playing with the normal mashbills and have proved their finishing skills are spot on. It's also Charles' turn to taste blind but he actually does a pretty good job. *Applause* for Charles! Then we discuss this amazing chart that's called "The Evolution of a Whiskey Drinker". We've all been there and maybe go back there quite often. Whiskey folks can be difficult to handle and know-it-alls and that's ok, we are always evolving! If you want to see the chart head to our website. We think you'll enjoy this episode because we had a lot of fun recording it! Please leave us a review wherever you are listening as well.

Episode 2 of our Interview Series! This time we get to chat with the former CEO & Director of the Institute of Brewing & Distilling, Douglas Murray. If you want to have the best technical knowledge of whisky production and spirits production in general, the institute is where you MUST go. I had to sit down and interview them so us folks in the USA could learn all about this UK-based program. Charles and I also have a lot to discuss before we get into the interview though. He just got back from two weeks in Japan and has a lot to share. We also talk about some new bottles in the shop since he's been away and he blind tastes me on something that he got while in Japan. But, is it Japanese Whisky?? This episode was such a blast for me and I feel honored that Douglas took an hour out of his day to chat with me. Not only do we talk about the IBD (Institute of Brewing & Distilling) and all of the courses they offer but we also chat about Talisker, Dalwhinnie, and some of the other Diageo distilleries he's worked at. He was a part of creating the Talisker Storm release and was also one of the folks who realized they needed to put the worm tubs back in at Dalwhinnie when they were renovating and changed to shell & tube! Oh and we take over ten minutes to go over worms versus shell & tube condensers. This is an audio-only podcast but if you could only see the massive smile on my face while we were chatting about worm tubs!! Maybe you can hear my heart racing in the background of the audio. Below are important links for you to check out if you're interested in the IBD. The Institute of Brewing & Distilling Essentials in Brewing & Distilling Foundations in Brewing & Distilling General Certificate in Distillation ** This is the program and exam that I went through If you're up for a trip, also check out their next conference which will have presentations from distillers all over the world and their latest findings: Worldwide Distilled Spirits Conference May 9th - 11th, Edinburgh UK Thank you to Ana, Douglas, and Jerry at the IBD for all of their time and support of me, the podcast, and the shop!

In this episode I interview Christopher Smith, who is an extraordinary person doing some really important work in the herbal community in Australia. Christopher is a herbalist, horticulturalist and herbal educator He draws on over 40 years of horticultural experience to grow a line of rare and endagered herbs at the herb farm he runs called Tinderry Mountain Herbs, at Tinderry Mountain near Canberra. These herbs are supplied to herbalists in Australia, and Christopher has the noble vision of assisting Australia to become self-sufficient with it's herb supply- in particular Arnica, Goldenseal and Solomons Seal.. Christopher strongly believes that herbal medicine is the medicine of the people and needs to be alive in people's homes and kitchens so he is passionate about sharing the world of plants and medicinal herbs with people. He runs regular workshops and classes through the Heirophant in Canberra teaching people how to make an array of herbal preparations. He also runs online workshops and classes. All of my communications leading up to and after this interview was really beautiful. Christopher has such a kind heart and pure intentions- he wants to see as many people growing rare and endangered herbal medicine as possible, and is developing a mentorship program for advanced methods of growing herbs. This interview was really enjoyable for the both of us and we are already planning the next one. I appreciate the sense of comradery I feel with Christopher, in fact after this iinterview I invited him to become admin on two facebook groups I am admin for. He is a rare find and I hope that you all enjoy this interview.

We're back! Although January & February are supposed to be the retail industry's "down time", we for sure didn't feel that way and we're not even sure why. We have had quite a few amazing Saratoga Whiskey Club classes over the past few weeks and have been focusing on all of our education and travel programs that we're about to launch for 2023. It is really going to be a stellar year of whisky travel. Then, Holly blind tastes Charles on a very special pour because they both deserve it and we discuss one of our favorite Islay distilleries, Bunnahabhain! Enjoy!

It is so difficult to pick our favorite bottles for 2022 but we can pick out a few of the brands that really impressed us. Charles and I discuss which brands really hit it out of the park in 2022 and we can't wait to see what 2023 holds. We also discuss Bardstown Bourbon Company and how impressive their releases have been. They have grown so quickly! Holly blind tastes Charles on a potentially "off" whisky and we thank you all for your support this past year. See you next year!

We head back over to Japan with a look at Mars Distilleries including Shinshu and Tsunuki. Both Charles and I have visited Shinshu and had different experiences but all in all, this is a distillery worth the 4 hours one-way on public transit. We also would like to hear from all of you about our 2023 whiskey travel plans. Charles owns a company called Rascal + Thorn which is a culinary and whiskey tour company. He has led trips to Japan, Scotland, Kentucky, Ireland, and other destinations with groups looking to hunt down the most immersive and fun whiskey experiences!

We just picked a single barrel of rum from Old Line Distillery in Maryland so who the heck are they? The rum is just the tip of the iceberg. If you haven't tried their cask strength American Single Malt, you're missing out. A really great distillery that is one to watch. Also, are you interested in "New World Whisky"? New World = whisky from everywhere BUT Scotland, Ireland, North America (USA/Canada), and Japan.

Charles and I discuss why Old Pepper Distillery should not be overlooked when visiting Lexington. We are also extremely excited about the new distillery on Islay named Port-nah-truan. The owners Elixir Distillers, once owners of The Whisky Exchange, are going to have malting floors, direct-fired wash stills and will not only produce single malt but also rum!

Okay, we were venting a bit on this episode but I promise, we really do enjoy following along with all of the spirits competitions. I guess there are just a few things we would change! We also discuss one of our favorite island distilleries in Scotland, Tobermory, the producers of the unpeated Tobermory malt and the peated Ledaig. Charles blind tastes Holly and let's just say a certain style of cask maturation tripped her up! Please leave us a review wherever you are listening as well. We appreciate you! Cheers!
