Speaker: Paul Bergner. Mineral and trace element components of medicinal plants are the forgotten constituents in contemporary herbalism, yet they are essential in an overall therapeutic plan for the exhausted and malnourished patient. This presentation covers the roles of mineral and trace elements in maintaining health, their disappearance from the American diet in the last fifty years, and presents forms and recipes from the materia medica to assist in their restoration.
