Sustainable health care: Fungi and Medicinal plants to the rescue?

Saturday, June 14 · 11am – 12:30pm

One Garden Brighton, Lewes Road, Stanmer BN1 9SE


I’ll explore how fungi and medicinal plants are stepping up as sustainable alternatives to traditional health care.

In today’s world, taking control of our health has never been more important — but navigating the healthcare system? That’s a whole other story. Long waiting times, difficulty getting appointments, and a system that’s stretched thin can make it feel like we’re left to fend for ourselves. So, what can we do? Well, we can turn to nature.

In this talk, I’ll share how medicinal fungi and plants can help us take charge of our well-being, offering sustainable, natural alternatives to the traditional healthcare system. But we’ll also talk about the risks of mixing these natural remedies with prescribed treatments — because safety matters. It’s about finding that sweet spot where nature meets modern health care.

This talk will cover:

  • The importance of integrating fungi and plants into health practices
  • How medicinal mushrooms like Turkey Tail, Reishi, and Lion’s Mane support overall wellness
  • The top medicinal herbs for immunity, mental health, and vitality
  • Practical ways to incorporate fungi and plants into your daily routine through teas, tinctures, and more.

Come away with a deeper understanding of how to harness the healing potential of nature in a sustainable way.

I’ll guide you through:

  • The potential risks when integrating natural remedies with conventional health care and how to mitigate them
  • How medicinal mushrooms like Reishi, Lion’s Mane, and Turkey Tail can support immune health, mental clarity, and stress management
  • The role of powerful plants like Echinacea, Elderberry, and St. John’s Wort in enhancing our overall well-being
  • Practical tips for using these fungi and herbs safely, including how to incorporate them into your daily routine through teas, tinctures, and more

By the end, you’ll have a deeper understanding of how to responsibly blend the best of both worlds — the benefits of nature’s healing powers and modern health care — for a sustainable approach to well-being.
