In this edition of The Natural nurse and DrZ, and, in honor of Black History Month, the hosts will discuss Nanny of the Maroons, the heroine of Jamaica and also we cover various herbal medicines of the Jamaican forests. Nanny was a gifted healer, leader and warrior who is featured on the Jamaica 500 note.
