In this episode we speak with herbalist, entrepreneur and teacher Ben LeVine about the science behind why and how adaptogens work, the common chemistry behind many of these herbs, about going from dumpster diving, to working at Celestial Seasonings, to co-founding Rasa, an herbal company that provides coffee alternatives that are "obsessively sustainable" - and we get into what that means, and how to actually scale up herbalism in a way that helps heal the earth.
