About the Webinar:
Many people get very frightened when they think about herbs and drugs interacting with each other. Some even may feel defensive about the idea that pharmaceutical medicine so easily puts herbs in the hot seat. In this 2 hour class you will be introduced to the means by which herbs and drugs may interact with each other, for better or for worse. We will also be learning skills for easier interpretation of the scientific research investigating these interactions in order to discern their clinical relevance.
This webinar will be recorded. If you are unable to make the live session, we recommend that you register anyway. You will have access to the replay for 30 days after the live session to watch at your convenience.
