Here Josef Brinckmann, medicinal plant researcher and expert in botanical supply chains shares with us insights from the industry. He also shares top tips on how to ensure plants are safely sourced. https://www.herbalreality.com/herbalism/western-herbal-medicine/sustainable-herbalism-clinical-practice/

Ayurveda could be called the ‘science of digestion’. It believes that a faulty digestion is the cause of most diseases. However good your diet is, if your digestion is impaired then you cannot absorb the appropriate nutrients required for nourishment. This ultimately causes in the depletion of the entire system and results in disease. However, a good diet is essential too. 👉 In his article, Sebastian Pole, looks at the Ayurvedic perspective of how both the quality of food we eat as well as the quality of digestion influence our health and how by treating the ‘root’ cause of disease we can help our patients heal. https://www.herbalreality.com/health-lifestyle/mobility-fitness/ayurvedic-approach-digestive-health-nutrition/ ☕️ There are only a few ways to move toxins out of the body – so if you’re keen to cleanse, it’s essential to make sure your bowels are working properly.
