Plant medicines hold unique promise and potential to help us meet the unprecedented demands of modern life. Chronic disease is on the rise, and life expectancy is falling. The demands of environmental toxicity, man-made radiation, chronic infection and stress place great demands on the bodymind. Immune and autoimmune conditions, cardiometabolic syndrome, diabetes, cancer, fatigue and cognitive decline are on the rise.
