Presentation Topics:
- Chinese Wormwood (artemisia annua) Update
This is one of the most important ancient herbs for today’s world. Chinese wormwood provides a variety of benefits to patients with a wide range of immune challenges, and more. Dr Gaeta will present additional research and new insights on this important herb, for the fourth year in a row.
- Detoxifying Experimental Injections
Dr Gaeta receives questions weekly from patients, colleagues and others, many of whom were coerced into receiving experimental and ineffective covid injections, which have proven to do far more harm than good, on how to detoxify and minimize damage from them. In this presentation, he provides his specific herbal and natural functional medicine strategies on this subject.
- Chinese Sage: First Look and Deep Dive on Danshen (salvia miltiorrhiza)
This Chinese herb, also known as Red Sage, has received much attention from the scientific community in recent years for its potential to help patients improve their cardiovascular health, as well as those with a range of immune challenges. In this year’s WHS, Dr Gaeta presents his first deep dive on this important herb.
