Herbal Index
This information on herbs was developed
by BHLP faculty members and consultants
as an attempt to begin educating conventional
health care practitioners about the use
of herbs and supplements by ethnic groups
in Boston. It formed part of the foundation
for Herbal Tours, which began in April 2004,
and are day-long postgraduate educational
experiences. These tours consist of didactic
presentations on cultural healing practices
followed by visits to botánicas and
conversations with ethnic healing practitioners.
This guide also provides recommendations
on other sources of herbal information.
