Wild Medicine: A Field Guide to Natural Wellness Remedies from Around the World

By Shawn M Talbott

Join psycho-nutritionist Dr. Shawn Talbott on an extraordinary journey across continents--exploring how ancient wisdom and modern science converge to heal the mind, body, and spirit. This is a field guide for people who want natural solutions that work--and who want to understand why they work.

In Wild Medicine, Dr. Talbott explores the intersections of ancient plant wisdom, modern microbial science, and cutting-edge body-mind medicine, revealing how herbs, probiotics, and sustainably harvested botanicals interact with the bacteria in our gut (microbiome) and communicate across our Gut-Brain-Axis to influence every aspect of physical health, mental fitness, and emotional well-being.

By viewing thousands of years of ancient health practices such as Chinese (TCM) and Indian (Ayurveda) medicine through the modern lens of Western neuroscience and cutting-edge microbiome research, he goes beyond treating symptoms to rediscover nature's role in recalibrating the core biological systems that govern our moods, vitality, and ultimately our longevity.

What Anthony Bourdain did for food, Dr. Talbott does for natural health--inviting readers and viewers to rediscover the world's most powerful natural solutions for modern ailments. He does this by delving into:

Plants: Natural remedies which are often as effective as prescription drugs,

People: Heartwarming and humorous stories that connect global communities through shared humanity,

Purpose: Education to motivate and inspire readers towards environmental stewardship and protection of the ecosystems that sustain life and healing.

A transformational exploration of nature, culture, and consciousness, Wild Medicine will change how we see medicine, mindfulness, and our place in the world.
