I purchase this book in order to be able to learn more about creating safe, healing products from herbs and oils. It does not include every single health issue in the world, but some of the most common ailments that can be treated with these formulas. Reads like a recipe book and is very easy to follow. It helps, but is not necessary, to have some basic knowledge of herbs and essential oils. You will receive maximum benefit if you grow some of your own herbs. Otherwise, you will need a local or email address of a reputable, preferably organic or unsprayed, company to purchase from. The recipes are not complicated. The authors expertise and passion shows through. Fun to read. I checked it out from the library first to review it and liked it so much I bought it as a treasured reference book.Read full review
I bought this book because I love making my own soaps, lotions and potions. It's just plain fun and economical. Not to mention, I control every ingredient....be sure to purchase from reputable companies, in the case of herbs-grow your own. If you are working toward becoming more self-sufficient, this is an excellent next step. This book has recipes for everything, plus information on uses. The only thing I was sad about, was that there weren't as many salve and balm recipes as I had hoped, I personally like those better than liquids. There were enough things though that will keep me cookin for many week-ends! However, I still highly recommend the book as a good source of recipes and information .
This is an excellent reference book for anyone interested in making and using homemade herbal remedies. It is well written and easy to read.
