Health Questions for the Herbal Experts
Candace, Patrick and Sue pitch listener health questions on herbal medicine to their guests: Rebecca Harburg, LAc and Wendy Hounsel, RN, RH (AHG). Over the years, podcast fans have sent in pages of questions from our Herbal 101 segment of the podcast that the Real Herbalism Radio crew has collected. There is no way that they can answer all the questions but a few stood out as excellent sources for their guests to field. It seemed appropriate that show 101 should be focused on answering herbal 101 questions. Wendy and Rebecca offer a blend of Eastern and Western Herbalism with their varied interests and experience. Both are herbalists. Both were brave enough to answer the questions on a wide array of topics. Their answers were engaging and thought provoking. Although they come from different traditions, they share a common goal: healthcare for the people. We, at Real Herbalism Radio, salute them![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row 0=””][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text 0=””]
