Chronic Lower & Complex Respiratory Conditions with Prof. Eric Yarnell

Tech Talk with OptimalRx

This month Julianne and Kristin are joined by Naturopathic Doctor, Prof. Eric Yarnell, as he discusses phytomedicines used to treat chronic and complex lower respiratory conditions. Eric shares with us the strategies he recommends to help reduce the effects of air pollution, as well as the use of pulmonary lymphagogues to protect the lungs, and the benefits of nebulising volatile oils for inhalation. He also chats about the importance of synergy and traditional use informing research and the clinical application of our herbal medicines. In this podcast you’ll find out why Eric uses other antimicrobial phytomedicines over berberine-containing herbs to treat lower respiratory infections and you'll hear Eric talk about Licorice, Turmeric, Manuka, Juniper, Cat's Claw, Hemidesmus, Gotu Kola, and more.
