Herbal Allies for Detox and Digestion with Jamie Cotter

April 01, 2025 1hr 12min

The body has a remarkable built-in ability to detoxify—and herbal tinctures are one of the most time-tested ways to support it. In Episode #521 of Vitality Radio, host Jared St. Clair welcomes back Jamie Cotter of WishGarden Herbs to explore how nature has provided the tools to support the liver, lymphatic system, and digestive health through thoughtful, plant-based approaches.

Jamie shares how tonic herbs can be used for both periodic detoxes and daily maintenance, while Jared and Jamie also dig into the age-old role of bitters for digestion and the powerful benefits of chlorophyll for detoxification and oxygenation—what Jamie calls "liquid sunshine."
