Episode Description

Dr. Mark Plotkin has spent nearly four decades in the Amazon, apprenticing to the shamans whose plant knowledge has quietly shaped modern medicine. He arrives with a proposition that connects a burning bush in the Sinai, a coffee forest in East Africa, and a rainforest pharmacy we have barely begun to read.

We explore the fascinating world of ethnobotany, plant-human interactions, and the profound impact of indigenous wisdom on modern science and conservation. Discover how ancient plant medicines and modern technology can help us understand and protect our planet.
