Speaker: Kat Maier, RH (AHG)
With the increasing prevalence of heat-related illnesses due to climate change, clinicians must be prepared to support vulnerable populations through both preventive and therapeutic strategies. Kat Maier will provide an overview of the epidemiology of heat-related illness and the emerging health risks associated with rising global temperatures. Drawing from herbal energetics and traditional systems of medicine, the presentation will highlight botanicals and food-based therapies that support thermoregulation, cardiovascular function, and systemic resilience. Formulation strategies for daily tonic use during periods of prolonged heat stress will be shared, along with clinical guidance for integrating cooling herbs into patient care plans to reduce risk and improve outcomes.
