Natural Medicines

The natural medicines market is a multi-billion dollar industry and Australia has one of the highest levels of uptake of natural medicines in the developed world, with around 44% of people buying vitamins and supplements regularly. It’s clear that a lot of Australians view natural medicines as an important part of managing their health and wellness. In this panel, chaired by Dr. Charlotte Middleton, we discuss how natural medicines are viewed by patients and the healthcare community, whether they have a valid place in modern medicine and the role education plays for patients and healthcare practitioners alike
