About this product

Product Information

Herbal medicine is increasingly being seen as a respected and welcome complement to orthodox medicine. This book offers natural cures with advice on both those preparations that can be bought ready-made, and the traditional remedies that can be brewed up in the kitchen. It advises which ingredients are available, where to find and how to use them. The book deals with a range of ailments - from respiratory problems to depression, insomnia and eczema - where modern drugs fail to provide relief or produce side-effects. It advises on those minor ailments which people may treat themselves - such as sun burn, headaches, coughs and colds - for which herbal remedies can be effective. Remedies are included for anxiety, stress, fatigue and other modern-day complaints, and feminine ailments. A section is also included dealing with children's conditions as well as a separate section on travel illnesses.
