Bioregional Prescribing of Bitter Herbs

To further my goal of getting people to use more local herbs and fewer herbs that come from far away or are "exotic," I am providing a periodically-updated database of bitter herbs with bioregional information attached. So if you're looking for more local herbs to prescribe, this is a great place to start. Additionally, other actions of the herbs are provided to help in sorting through which bitter(s) might be most appropriate for a specific patient.
