As we close in on ONE YEAR of podcasting, Tom and Nan share some of their favorite herbs and some eye-opening research in the natural products industry:
In Naturals in the News, we focus in on the benefits of Omega 3 fatty acids in midlife; the powerful effects of Acai berries on vascular health; how pycnogenol has been studied for ADHD compared to stimulants; research on how women's hormones effect sleep patterns; the benefits of a polyphenol rich mediterranean diet on fat around the waist and how an extract of corn leaf can increase the quality of your sleep.
In Our Favorite Things, we discuss Shen or spirit as it lives in the heart and Tom's favorite herb called Albizzia or mimosa as a Shen tonic. Nan shares her favorite herb, Hawthorne and its scientifically proven cardiac benefits.
