About Martin Stone

Martin Stone has over 20 years experience as a clinician, educator and consultant to the herbal industry. His extensive knowledge in research and formulation of herbal products is reflected in the creation of two comprehensive databases as well as this book. Realizing that valid, current, impartial, researched data is becoming more important to the average population, Mr. Stone has written this easy to understand and scientifically validated reference quality book to give the average person all the information needed about the most commonly used medicinal herbs.

Currently Mr. Stone has a busy private practice and consults for international nutritional companies in addition to writing a book on supplements due out soon.

Mr. Stone also participated in the creation of a position paper on the future of health care in Alberta for the Premier's Commission, and partnered in the creation of the Drumheller Center for Natural Healing where he continues to maintain a practice. 

In the past four years he has created two alternative health databases and has published his first book, Herbs Explained.

 Presently, Mr. Stone is a consultant for two international nutritional companies and has created several herbal and supplement formulas that are currently marketed throughout Canada, the United States and Europe.  It was during the course of the research for these databases and for the formulas that Mr. Stone realized that there is very little accurate and impartial scientific information on herbal medicine that was available and easily understood by the general population.  This book is the result of countless hours of compiling data from numerous databases, publications and recent research, taking from each the best that it had to offer.

Martin Stone has extensive clinical experience in Chinese and Western herbology, Homeopathy, Nutrition, Orthomolecular Medicine and Iridology. With a background in Biology and Spinal health care, Mr. Stone has treated thousands of individuals in over two decades of practice.   Mr. Stone taught Iridology and Herbalism at one of Canada's premier education centers, The Wild Rose College of Natural Healing, as well, he maintained a busy practice there for 13 years.
