  • The Role of Bitter Herbs for a Healthy Microbiome

Speaker: Mary Bove, ND. Bitter herbs and the bitter action are central to herbal medicine and to optimizing digestive function while supporting a healthy microbiome. The role of the bitter action is applicable in many digestive conditions including gastric ulcer, IBD, SIBO, indigestion, food allergies and leaky gut. This class looks at the application of bitter herbs, specific bitter herbs and active constituents, along with microbiome support and health. Case history examples are included.
