herbal medicine

Medicinal plants can be used to treat a complex network of bodily dysfunction.

Oral forms of administration:

• Food: ingested as a whole plant or condiment

• Tea: dried plant parts infused in boiling water

• Tincture: medicinal herbs dissolved in an alcohol solution

• Pill: powdered herb that is packed into a tab or capsule

Some of my favourite herbs include:

• Turmeric: may help in the reduction of inflammation and pain

• Ginger: a warming herb to support bloating and indigestion

• Kava: helps promote muscle relaxation, a sense of calm, and sleep

• Rosemary: a powerful herb to stimulate mental clarity

• Calendula: may be used topically for wound healing

• Cordyceps: a mushroom that supports stress, athletic performance and immune function
