About Nature's Apothecary: Roots, Shoots and Remedies

*This podcast is not intended to serve as professional medical advice; it is a course project aimed at learning about, and describing how plants have effects on us.* Each episode is crafted to explore various pharmacological aspects of natural medicines and is entirely designed, recorded, and edited by students from the Pharmacology course on Medicinal Plants and Fungi at Dalhousie University. As enthusiastic learners, we are thrilled to share our discoveries and insights with you. However, there may be occasional mistakes in our interpretation of the data used to prepare each episode.
