This week I was lucky to have attended the ICSB conference surrounded by some of the brightest botanical brains: including Stefan Gafner, of the American Botanical Council, who’s gave a talk titled, “Fifteen Years of the ABC-AHP-NCNPR Botanical Adulterants Prevention Program : What Have We Learned?”.
In this teaser from our latest Explorer’s Way Episode, Stefan shared why combating adulteration is anything but easy…and that’s exactly why gatherings like ICSB matter so much:
This is where the herb nerds huddle up, compare notes, and push our understanding (and our solutions) to the next level.

Be sure to catch the next huddle up with herb and natural product nerds at the Future Nutra Foundation Innovation Summit in September 9-11 2026 (www.FutureNutra.org ).

To Watch Stefan’s full episode, check it out on The Explorer’s Way on The Ethnobotanical Explorer’s channel on You Tube (www.youtube.com/@theethnobotanicalexplorer).. and stay tuned, as I will be posting on some of the ICSB happenings throughout the week. 😄 🤓 🌿
Guess who I nerded around with this week?
