In this conversation, Olivia, a clinical herbalist, discusses the use of herbs for reversing disease patterns and improving overall health. She explains that herbalism is about seeing the individual and understanding their specific needs, rather than looking for a specific herb for a specific condition. Olivia discusses the different classifications of herbs, such as adaptogens and nervines, and how they can be used to address different symptoms and imbalances. She also emphasizes the importance of personal responsibility and lifestyle changes in maintaining long-term health. Takeaways: Herbalism is about seeing the individual and understanding their specific needs, rather than looking for a specific herb for a specific condition. Different classifications of herbs, such as adaptogens and nervines, can be used to address different symptoms and imbalances. Personal responsibility and lifestyle changes are important for maintaining long-term health. Herbs can be used to support hair health by nourishing the blood, kidney, and liver meridians. Tinctures are more potent and fast-acting, while teas and decoctions are better for water-soluble herbs. Overnight infusions can be used to extract minerals and nourish the body. Herbs can support detoxification and liver health. Creating habits around herbal rituals, such as making and drinking tea, can enhance the overall experience and benefits of using herbs. Digestive bitters, such as glucobitters, can help regulate appetite, improve satiety, and support healthy digestion. Fiber-rich foods, like beans, can aid in detoxification by binding to excess estrogen and other toxins in the intestines. Addressing constipation is crucial for hormone health, as it allows for the proper elimination of toxins and hormones from the body. Herbs like Vitex can help regulate hormone levels and support ovulation, making them beneficial for conditions like PCOS and estrogen dominance.
