Sore Throat Herbs & Classic Cancer Cure-alls

After seeing Rising Appalachia the other night, Katja wanted to sing! She sang so much she gave herself a sore throat. So today she'll tell you all about her favorite herbs for soothing sore throats! Ryn breaks down a couple of "classic cancer cure-all" formulae you may have heard of: Hoxsey and Essiac. He talks you through a way to deconstruct these, so you don't let an old formula be a black box or a magic potion - instead, break it down and analyze it! This helps you find a middle way between the "skeptics" who call everything herbal "quackery" and the uncritical superficiality of internet memes. Herbs discussed include calamus, marshmallow, linden, & cinnamon. Mentioned in this podcast: Rising Appalachia - music to heal your heart!Herbstalk - coming up June 2nd & 3rd! Herbal Medicine for Beginners, our first book, is available now on Amazon! Our theme music is "Wings" by Nicolai Heidlas.Support the showYou can find all of our online herbalism courses at online.commonwealthherbs.com!
