Don’t get me wrong, Western medicine is great, but sometimes it’s nice to learn about natural remedies first for minor aches and pains. The Essential Guide to Home Herbal Remedies features recipes for 125 conditions from curing a hangover to making your own nasal spray.
This book was written by Melanie Wenzel. She lives in Germany, where she is noted as a homeopathic expert. In this book, Melanie shares the history of herbal medicine, how to make different forms of herbal remedies (teas, tinctures, herbal baths, etc.), aromatherapy, medicinal plants that are useful, words of caution for using specific healing plants, and much more. Wonderful color photographs are included for step by step instructions and also to help distinguish different medicinal plants.
