Sperb’s Herbs – Herbs that Cool and Release the Exterior

This episode, we are exploring another important category of herbs: Herbs that Cool and Release the Exterior. These are incredibly useful especially treating colds, flus, and other “external attacks.” Join us as we look at this category and learn about their functions, their usefulness, and their dangers…

Every two weeks, an exciting new episode of the Sperb’s Herbs podcast is recorded. Each episode covers another traditional herb from somewhere in the world and will go into great depth about it. Besides covering the basics of the herb including its traditional use and functions, we will explore the history, quality, science, pharmacology, evidence, and any potential interactions of each herb. And then there is always something a little quirky about an episode. Whether that is a unique story or an interesting perspective, there will always be something different to learn about episode’s herb.
