On this episode, we’ll sit in on a class from Paul Bergner at the NorthWest Herb Symposium. Join him as he covers concepts in microbiology, the human microbiome, new understandings of infection, and a scientific overview of botanicals in treatment of related pathologies. Topics discussed include ulcers, oral biofilms, bacterial vaginosis, chronic ear infections, topical wounds, and gut biofilms. This is a technical one, but fascinating and packed with useful information. It’s not to be missed!
