First off, this book is huge! It features an amazing amount of herbal remedy recipes for common ailments and general wellness, as well as a section detailing the various uses for many medicinal herbs. Since it's an ebook, you can search for your specific herb or affliction, making this an incredibly useful reference for anyone looking for natural solutions to common ailments. These days with all the high prices and side effects of traditional medicine I have been thinking of trying more natural ways to heal ailments and sickness. It warns you that even though it's natural it can be dangerous and tells you what you need to do to make sure you keep it safe. I really love that in chapter four they tell you how to make herbal remedies. I have been looking for a good herbal cough medicine. This time of year we are always fighting a cough and the over the counter cough syrups have so many side effects that I would rather not take it and suffer. Now I have a good herbal recipe with stuff I already have in my cupboard. They give you a long list of all of the healing herbs and what they heal. It's amazing to know that something like asthma and diabetes. I really can't wait to try some natural deodorant and some recipes for dry skin. Even though I received this book for free I am very happy I read this book and look forward to becoming more natural in my daily life. Curious about natural remedies, I enjoyed the many safety tips included in the guide. For example, a remedy that's safe for adults may be unsafe for children but there are child-centric remedies as well. You'll learn how to grow and make your own remedies, but not without knowing what to watch out for first. Overall Verdict: If you’re like me and fairly new to preparing herbal remedies, I highly recommend this book. If you’re already advanced at herbal remedies it may not be your best fit. Disclosure: I received free copy of this book for review purposes. My opinions are my own.

You'll learn how to grow and make your own remedies, but not without knowing what to watch out for first. Obviously, this book makes the case for herbal medicine and holistic practices, but it's upfront and honest as well: these remedies aren't for everyone, and natural remedies won't fix everything. But for many common ailments, you can seek relief in your own backyard. I recommend this guide for anyone interested in holistic, natural medicine, as well as anyone who's interested in the history of primitive and ancient use of these herbs.

There is a ton of information in this book and honestly a few times I had a hard time getting through it; however, that being said this book is definitely a great resource guide from Healing Herbs, Remedies for ailments to Herbal Remedies for Skin and Beauty (I can't wait to try out the Peppermint-Tea Tree Toner for acne). I found a recipe for acid reflux and my husband tried it out. The Fresh Ginger Tea is said to help with acid reflux, my husband thought it worked well and plans to give it a try for while because he has been taking medication for Acid Reflux for years. Another thing I like about the book is that it provides a little history behind these remedies so they are easier to understand. Under each "recipe" it tells you how many doses it makes and how to prepare and store it. It is a handy guide to keep close by so when you need or want a "natural" choice to cure your ailment, eliminate your sleep issue, find the best hair treatment or the perfect stress reliever or whatever your needs are, you have readily available. I received this book free to read and review but my opinions are my own.

This book is an absolutely excellent resource for anyone who wants to try adding herbal medicine to his or her health care practices. It gives a comprehensive overview of all types of herbs and what they can be used for such as peppermint for digestive issues and valerian for anxiety. It also provides a detailed guide of every herb that has medicinal properties and how best to use them. Furthermore, it provides great recipes for how to make your own herbal remedies or prepare various kinds of herbal baths and how to undertake other healing activities. Perhaps most importantly, it has warnings describing who and who should not use certain herbs and instructs the reader to continue taking their traditional medicines while using herbal medicine as a supplement. In other words, it does not make herbal medicine out to be the be all end all solution to every malady. Finally, it contains a very informative, interesting history about herbal medicine. Thus, if you want to give herbal medicine a try, purchase this book. I doubt that you will find one that is better.
