Today I'm delighted to have Anne Criner with me, who is my colleague here at the Biome Clinic. She's a naturopath and nutritionist and my co author for my vegetarian SIBO Bi-Phasic diet and that's the topic of this episode - How to treat SIBO in vegans and vegetarians. This is been a really exciting release for us in terms of the SIBO biphasic diet that's vegetarian and vegan. We dissect it a little bit today as to what we have accomplished, who we target and how to really implement it in the practitioners flow of treatment.

Today we are speaking with Julianne Grant. She's an experienced Melbourne-based naturopathic practitioner who has a very special interest in the management of chronic disease, including autoimmune conditions, inflammatory conditions, chronic infections, and immune dysregulation. She's also been a researcher, technical writer, presenter, and educator for one of the herbal companies here in Australia called OptimalRx. She's been in practice and has been in this industry for almost two decades.

I'm really happy to be talking to her today about immune modulation and herbs. She gave a really good presentation at the NHAA conference just a month ago or so about how herbs can affect the immune response. I thought I'd take the opportunity, and talk with her today about all the wonderful things that herbs can do for the immune system.
