  • Show 135: Herb Lab - Amanda Dilday - Self Care for Herbalists
    As Sue and Candace reflect on the interview with Amanda Dilday, they sort through the under-rated step of healing which involves letting the healer breathe. Self care can take many forms.

  • Let's Talk Series: Jakob Slettleland - Understanding Herbal Research

    Herbal Nerd Society member exclusive: Understanding Herbal Research with Jakob Slettleland

    There is a bounty of research that herbalists can learn from that is readily available yet translating the scientific jargon can be daunting. Jakob Slettleland MSc RH(AHG) shares helpful perspectives on reading and interpreting herbal research. He gives tips on recognizing studies that are done well and those that are best ignored. He clears up a few terms such as in-vitro and invivo and why anecdotal accounts do not belong in the discussion.


    Jakob's theory is that scientific information is a tool that herbalists will be able to use to their advantage once they have a grasp on the jargon and scope. Just a few tips from Jakob dulls the edge of intimidation that many have about scientific studies. The world needs more educated herbal healers. Knowledge is power.

  • Show 131: Herb Lab - Dr. Michael Tierra - Kratom on Trial
    Kratom is making headlines as both a natural and safe pain reliever AND as a targeted and dangerous herb. After centuries of use in Asia, kratom is just one more herb to join the ranks of analgesic herbs to draw the government's scrutiny. Those that use this plant as an alternative to addictive prescription pain killers are growing increasingly worried that it will become banned by the FDA and DEA leaving patients helpless in the wake of the opioid epidemic.

  • Show 130: Dr. Michael Tierra - Kratom on Trial
    Plants may be the medicine of the people but not all plants are equal in the eyes of the law.
