Course Overview
This episode, we are exploring another important category of herbs: the Nourish the Yin Herbs. These are incredibly useful especially in women's medicine. However, they are widely used in many, many common formulas for everyone. Join us as we look at this category and learn about their functions, their usefulness, and their dangers…
Every two weeks, an exciting new episode of the Sperb's Herbs podcast is recorded. Each episode covers another traditional herb from somewhere in the world and will go into great depth about it. Besides covering the basics of the herb including its traditional use and functions, we will explore the history, quality, science, pharmacology, evidence, and any potential interactions of each herb. And then there is always something a little quirky about an episode. Whether that is a unique story or an interesting perspective, there will always be something different to learn about episode's herb.
