I've done episodes about dietary supplements. I didn't take into account the ones sold at the gas station or corner store. People with an anxiety condition or disorder should be very careful about promises of herbal supplements treatment.    I don't want to be elitist here. There is bad stuff in U.S. pharmacies that do not work, known not to be effective or dangerous and yet still on sale. I have examples from Ethan Melillo. PharmD and Grant Harding, PharmD.   It is one thing to buy Slim-Jims from the gas station. I've bought water, two cans for three dollars then I get to the counter where the person looks at me like I'm less than dirt as he rings me up. Then I remember not to go back into that store for the next eight months or so.   I would never, ever purchase an herbal supplement from the gas station store, a convenience store or the 99 Cents or 150 Cents Store-ish variations.   You might decide otherwise. If you do want to risk it, pack a magnifying glass because you have to read the label.    What is the dosage? It might not be the full bottle.    And most important, have the contents been verified by an independent industry respected testing organization?   We need to be careful out in the wild. Just my two cents. This is my opinion which ain't worth a bucket of salt. Which does not stop me from this episode on how to evaluate herbal health supplements.   Resources Mentioned:    Operation Supplement Safety is intended for folks in the military that have restrictions on the kind of supplements they can use.

From sugar marketed as a performance tool to “whole grains” that drive cravings, this episode uncovers how hidden traps in modern nutrition can hijack your brain, wreck your metabolism, and accelerate aging. You'll learn how to rethink daily eating so it fuels energy, resilience, and long-term health instead of quietly sabotaging it.

They explore how cooking methods change health outcomes, when fasting and ketosis become powerful tools, and why supplements, nootropics, and trace minerals fill gaps in the modern diet.

Herbalists' Views on the Top-Selling Herbs (Part 8): Milk Thistle & Black Cohosh

Herbs #22 and 23 on the top-selling herbs list for 2023 were milk thistle and black cohosh.Today we continue our series on commercially popular herbs, and share our views as herbalists on the actions, benefits, and applications of these.Milk thistle is widely known as an excellent herb for the liver, and this is a case where the common wisdom is correct. It's one of the safest herbs out there, and fortunately, it is also widely available and inexpensive. Hepatoprotective and even able to regenerate damaged liver tissue, it is at the same time a very gentle and benign plant. But don't try to make tea with it!Black cohosh's reputation is as a remedy for PMS and menopausal symptoms, and often this is attributed to phytoestrogenic activity or constituents. The reality is murky – and has remained so despite decades of argument and investigation on both sides of the claim. Regardless, black cohosh can often help. We find it best to view the herb through the lens of its action as a relaxant. If PMS or menopause are showing up with lots of tension, it's worth a try and most likely to help. But we can also apply that action much more broadly, for injuries, spasms, and (certain kinds of) headaches.22. Milk Thistle – Silybum marianaumMilk Thistle: Herb of the WeekMilk Thistle at Herbal RealityMilk Thistle in A Modern Herbal, M. Grieve, 1931 – presented in this text alongside multiple other thistles, which allows for close comparisons among them.23. Black Cohosh – Actaea racemosaWuttke, W., Seidlová-Wuttke, D. Black cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa) is a non-estrogenic alternative to hormone replacement therapy.

We discuss the whole range of human reproductive variability and herbal medicines to support all kinds of people. We even bust a few reproductive-health myths and herban legends.

Warrior, healer, and protector—could this common roadside plant be nature's ultimate ally for both body and spirit?In this episode, herbalist and educator Carolyn Jones shares about a plant often called the “mother of all wound healers”—yarrow (Achillea millefolium). I was so excited that she chose to discuss this plant, as it's my herbal ally for the year and one I hold close to my heart. Although I've worked with yarrow for many years and already know it well, it's such a multifaceted herb that, like a dear friend, there's always more to learn about it.Carolyn certainly didn't disappoint, as she went well beyond commonly-known ways to work with yarrow for physical ailments. Her discussion of how yarrow can help to strengthen and heal us both spiritually and emotionally was so powerful and insightful, I know I'll be mulling it over for quite some time.The recipe that Carolyn shared with us is such a thoughtful, beautiful way to work with yarrow—with the intention not of getting rid of some challenge or affliction, but instead of calling forth a strength we might want to invoke: courage. You can download a beautifully-illustrated recipe card for her Medicine for the Soul: Courage Blend here.By the end of this episode, you'll know:► Five herbal preparations for working with yarrow, and the strengths and benefits of each► How flower essences are prepared—and how yarrow flower essence can help to heal emotional wounds► Yarrow's history of ritual use for spiritual protection► How yarrow's blood-moving qualities make it uniquely supportive for relieving certain types of pain► and so much more…For those of you who don't know her, Carolyn Jones is the founder of the Healing Project and serves as the coordinator of the Herbalists Without Borders' Healing Project Mobile Clinic. A dedicated community herbalist and holistic health educator, she holds certifications in aromatherapy, flower essences, reflexology, and acupuncture detoxification. Carolyn is also an accomplished author and bereavement chaplain.

Holistic herbalists are never trying to present “one right way” that everyone has to adhere to.Which means that as herbalists, we need to be creative and flexible. We need to match our strategies to each person's life individually – and that creativity can be challenging!That's one of the skills that we teach in our Clinical Skills course. Today's episode is a segment of content on this topic, from that course, which we wanted to share with you. It's self-contained, but it'll also give you a peek into what our course material sounds like.When we talk to a client, we listen to their health goals and priorities. We also form our own understanding of the case, and our own thoughts about what to prioritize – which herbs and interventions to try first. Here's the thing: their priorities are more important than ours! If we discern some fundamental factor they aren't aware of, it's our job to teach them why it's a priority. It's our job to educate and negotiate – not to dictate.Sometimes we'll propose an idea and the client will be uncertain, or will outright reject it. When this happens, it's not helpful to insist they follow our instructions. That's not the relationship we have as herbalists – we're not doctors, giving “orders”. So when the client expresses some resistance, we respect it. That respect may look like offering more information and context, or it may look like going in another direction entirely.The motto for this mindset is: Support the resistance.It's easier said than done – but learning to do it is something we consider essential to the herbalist's skillset.If this episode caught your attention, then our Clinical Skills course is for you! Learn to practice legally, safely, collaboratively, and effectively. Get all your client forms & scheduling systems sorted. Cultivate consultation interview skills, and explore methods for planning personalized protocols. Everything you need to be a top-notch herbalist!Like all our offerings, this self-paced online video course comes with free access to twice-weekly live Q&A sessions with us, lifetime access to current & future course material, open discussion threads integrated in each lesson, an active student community, study guides, quizzes & capstone assignments, and more!If you have a moment, it would help us a lot if you could subscribe, rate, & review our podcast wherever you listen.

What if the “ordinary” marigold in your garden was actually a sacred plant with centuries of healing tradition behind it?In this week's episode, Texas-based herbalist Lauren Peterson shares how she first learned about the medicine of yauhtli (Tagetes lucida), an herb hiding in plain sight all around her. Commonly referred to as Mexican tarragon or Texas tarragon, this cheery little marigold is a common landscaping plant in Texas, and yet it has so many medicinal gifts (and it is oh so fragrant and delicious, too!).There are many ways you can work with yauhtli, but Lauren's favorite way to prepare it is an infused honey. This sweet, wonderfully aromatic preparation really makes it easy to take your medicine—and it's so good, it even made my usually-reserved handsome French husband exclaim with delight! Lauren shared her recipe for Yauhtli Infused Honey with us, and you can download your beautifully-illustrated copy here. (And if you don't already grow yauhtli, this episode just might inspire you to go out and buy some seeds!)By the end of this episode, you'll know:► Six medicinal gifts of yauhtli► Three tips for growing yauhtli in your garden► Why infused honey is one of Lauren's favorite ways of working with yauhtli (and many other herbs!)► How yauhtli compares to other marigolds—plus two ways to work with common garden marigolds (Tagetes erecta)► The importance of forming community and making connections with other herbalists► and so much more…For those of you who don't know her, Lauren's passion for plants grew from her desire to deepen her connection with the natural world and nurture relationships that allow healing to take place. She began her herbal studies with Austin, Texas based Sacred Journey School of Herbalism in 2014, and now is a teacher and admin for the school. Lauren founded White Deer Apothecary in 2015 and continues to craft local herbal medicines, teach medicine making classes, guide plant walks, and work with clients one-on-one.

Perspective with Heather du Plessis-Allan: Taking in the impact of John Barnett's death

Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

If I'm honest with you, the passing of John Barnett on Sunday has actually hit our house quite hard over the last three days - because at the start, nobody knew anything about what had happened. And as the information has come out, we've realized that when my husband bumped into him on the street on Sunday afternoon, it was literally just before he died They stopped for a chat, husband went in one direction, Barnett went in the other direction, and it wouldn't have been another 200m or so beyond that, that John collapsed. Now, I don't think the full force of it actually hit me until I was watching the television news about this last night, because, you know, you're watching somebody alive on TV in the footage, but not alive in real life anymore. And what struck me last night was that I never realized how big a force John Barnett was for us in New Zealand. I knew what he'd done, we all knew what he'd done - Shorty Street, Whale Rider, all of that. But it wasn't until I heard the list rattled off that I realized the scale of the impact - Footrot Flats, Sione's Wedding, Whale Rider, Shortland Street, Once Were Warriors, What Becomes of the Brokenhearted, Outrageous Fortune, apparently commissioning Dave Dobbyn and Herbs to make 'Slice of Heaven', and apparently helping to rescue people in Dawn Raid. I mean, how much of what we consider to be intrinsic parts of our culture, or at least reflections of our culture back to us, were created or facilitated by John Barnett? It was really easy to forget that when you knew John, because he's really easygoing and really gracious, never reminded you of what a big deal he actually was. He was just Barney, who you bumped into almost every week on the kindy run or at the weekend sitting outside Dizengoff or strolling down Ponsonby Road. The last time I saw him and sat down and properly had a chat to him was over dinner at Prego not long ago. And the thing that struck me about him was how much into life he still was at the age of 79. He still had an eye for a good yarn, he was telling us about the story he never got around to making, which is of the only woman ever to be jailed in London for being a hitman. She was a Kiwi - and his eyes lit up and he cracked a big smile telling the story. He was still enthusiastic about telling our stories back to us. I will miss seeing John on my walks, not nearly as much as his family and his wife and his dearest friends will miss him - but how lucky were we that he spent his life giving us this part of New Zealand back to us?

Send us a textIn this revisited episode of Fabulously Delicious: The French Food Podcast, we continue our journey through the A to Z of French herbs with a fascinating entry — Alfalfa, or Luzerne as it's known in France. While not technically a herb but rather a legume, alfalfa has long been used in ways similar to herbs, both in the kitchen and in traditional medicine. From its vibrant purple flowers to its deep-reaching roots, alfalfa has a history as rich and layered as French cuisine itself.We'll uncover alfalfa's story, from its origins in South Central Asia to its arrival in Europe with the Ancient Greeks and Romans. You'll learn how this humble plant became a staple crop in France, where it thrives particularly in regions like Champagne-Ardenne. Beyond the fields, we'll also explore how alfalfa sprouts and seeds find their way onto French tables, adding crunch and nutrition to salads, sandwiches, and even dietary supplements.Alfalfa is more than just food — it's medicine too. For centuries, both Western and Chinese traditions have used alfalfa in teas and tonics to support digestion, weight loss, and even asthma. We'll dive into the nutritional benefits of this versatile plant, which is packed with vitamins and minerals, making it a true “superfood” long before the term became trendy.So, pour yourself a glass of wine, break a baguette, and settle in as we revisit the story of alfalfa in France. Whether you know it best as a crunchy sprout, a traditional tonic, or an agricultural powerhouse, this episode will give you a whole new appreciation for the role alfalfa plays in French cuisine and culture.Looking to deepen your culinary journey beyond the podcast?

For many, integrative medicine has become an unattainable luxury, and healthy diet and lifestyle the prerogative of the privileged. Today's guest, Dr. Ramona Wallace, is attempting to change that. Trained conventionally as a DO, she undertook additional training and certification via the Institute for Functional Medicine to broaden her clinical skills. She practices primary care in an underserved community in Kalamazoo, Michigan, where she incorporates diet and lifestyle recommendations to address her patients' chronic conditions. Careful nutritional assessment has revealed that many of her patients, while overtly overweight, are decidedly malnourished. She has documented a wide range of deficiencies—of B vitamins, vitamins A, C, and D, critical minerals like zinc and magnesium, even full-blown scurvy. These are precisely the patients who are most likely to benefit from nutritional support. Discovering obstacles to compliance is a key element to effect their health transformations. Dr. Wallace believes that individualized care is the key to reversing long-standing health conditions. She mentors medical students in the first-of-its-kind Functional Medicine program at a medical school. She has also co-authored a landmark paper arguing for wellness self-care by doctors, to stave off burnout and to help them be better role models for patients.
