The Big Book of Herbal Medicine: 300 Natural Remedies for Health and Wellness

I just received this book today. I've paged through it twice, and I'm already very impressed. It's all that I expected and hoped for, and more: many more types of treatments [modes of delivery] and many more ailments covered, than I anticipated. The recipes, and their preparations and precautions, are well written and easy to understand and follow. The glossary and different indexes are very comprehensive. And great color photos of all herbs, too! This is a welcome edition to my herbal medicine library. I highly recommend it.

This is me just nitpicking!! I am currently in college working on an herbal medicine degree. This book is like a simplified version of our text books, which is great. For me, I would have loved to have seen a list of active constituents for each herb. However, I know that most people aren't wanting to dig that deep. I also wish that on each page of the herbs, for example ginger, that there was a spot that lists all the pages of recipes that include ginger. It's not necessary but would make things so easy to navigate and offer different ways to approach. Overall, this looks to be a great book and im glad I purchased!!

Excellent information on herbs. Very clear descriptions. Excellent out of 5 herbal remedies books I have purchased this is the best for investigating remedies

This book is informative and has a great deal of useful information; however, it’s not quite what I expected in terms of recipes formulated for long term shelf life. I was looking for additional recipes to possibly test new product formulations which this particular book isn’t exactly suited for, but definitely great for personal home remedies. The tea recipes are excellent and I did note a few tincture recipes that proved to be quite beneficial. Overall a great resource to have on hand for personal use.

This book is very interesting, informative and I am going to start using this book to obtain the benefits of herbs because health is wealth.

I bought several different books along with this one and this book exceeded my expectations and was my BEST purchase. If you are looking for an informative and detailed book; this is the book that everyone should invest in and have in their home. This Author did a tremendous job of delivering Herbal Remedies.

This is the best I have found. Recipes for oil and herbs combined for every ailment you can thing of. Easy to follow Recipes and easy to find ingredients. The price is phenomenal for what all you get. Best deal.

This book is very informative, I love how everything is put into sections & things are explained so well & it's larger print book. The price was great too.

Excellent color pics, information and quality paper in this book.

My review is based on looking through the book without trying any of the recipes. I love this book! Lots of information on a variety of herbs and recipes. I love that there is an index for both the herb and also by the ailments, this makes it super easy to look up things. There are some things I wish she had provided recipes for, example, a salve for headaches. She does provide recipes for headaches, like tea and a compress, but a headache salve would have been great as well. But I get that she can only cover so much and I can just find a recipe online for it. I’m looking forward to trying out some of these recipes and probably tweeking them as I go along to what works best for me.
