This Conference will feature expert speakers with strong clinical and research backgrounds, offering decades of experience to share. The main conference will feature extensive information on evidence-based botanical medicine applications and nutrition. Faculty will address the underlying principles of chronic illness, and how they merge with the mechanisms of action for various natural modalities, helping clinicians make smart and effective treatment choices. Attendees will gain confidence in their knowledge of herb safety, toxicity, and contraindications.

The main conference topics will span a broad range, including cardiology, detoxification, adrenal support, metabolism, and mitochondrial activity. Attendees can add one of the three preconference intensives, selecting either Endocrinology and T3 with Denis Wilson, MD , Integrative Oncology, or Botanical Medicine for Women’s Health with Tieraona Low Dog, MD.
