This session will review herbal medicine as a primary or adjunctive modality to support mental health with a focus on anxiety. Anxiety is of the two most common complaints in general practice. We’ll review standard Materia Medica, mechanisms of action, indications, and contraindications of commonly available herbal medicines. We’ll also review some less-standard mechanisms for supporting mental health as impacted by anxiety. We will review nutritional requirements to maximize efficacy of the herbs relevant and we will also review any functional testing relevant to identify root causes of disease that maybe involved.
