For centuries, traditional medicine has used natural products to combat diseases. Modern science has successfully shaped this wealth of traditional knowledge into treatments. However, too little focus on a small set of traditional herbs has left many solutions behind. At IonCure, we scan ancient knowledge systems to find promising plant products that can be scientifically validated.
