Preserving the Herbal Traditions of Jamba of the Maroons

From the 1980s until 2014, Dr. Eugene Zampieron, ND, RH(AHG), (Dr. Z) studied and documented the herbs of Jamaica, and apprenticed with Jamba of the Maroons, a medicine man. Jamba was honored in the magazine Herbalgram when he passed in 2014 and Dr. Z continues to preserve his herbal legacy today. 

In this presentation, Dr. Z will discuss  the folklore, traditional uses, and pharmacology of dozens of tropical herbs, foods, and spices that  he encountered in his 30+ year apprenticeship with the shaman.
