This book is interesting. It gives you an array of suggestions broken down by topic. It covers your entire family and pets. There are notes from doctors covering the suggestions on the topics and I thought it got out of hand a bit there. But it gives you something to think about and go from there.

We have all heard of various wives tales, and home remedies, and most likely tried one or two when we have had an ailment. This book is compiled by Prevention magazines. Compiling approximately 140 various ailments that we all have. Each topic is given several pages of suggestions. Since its Prevention magazine they do seem to be plausible, and not harmful in anyway. Often the text is accompanied by text doctors have written on their suggestions. Book covers topics for men, women, children, and even your pets. I found the book education, and the suggestions very helpful.

This book has been instrumental in bringing relief to several personal aches and pains over the years. Whether instantly calming two Colicky crying babies, by simply following this book's advice of turning on a vacuum cleaner, I suggest handheld, or extremely helpful information about relieving Gout. These remedies have been right-on-the-mark. For sufferers of all ailments, what have you got to lose?

Very interesting. Many wonderful and practical ideas . Some I would never use but many I will. A great reference! Some I already knew. You really find that you have many remedies right in your home under your nose.

I found this book so very helpful. I have a couple of health issues that can be controlled with dietary monotoring, but sometimes we wonder, is this ok or not, should I have this food, or not, and this book tells me what I needed to know, and it is written in a very frank way, leaving no doubt as to what you are being told. Of course no book can take the place of seeing your Dr., but this book answers so many questions.

I had to buy this for my daughter when she got married.. every house should have this book! the seller had it in stock and shipped it really quickly! Thanks!

Love the book on Home Remedies !!!!! Given the option of a Home Remedy or popping a pill?? I'll take the home remedy first!!!! Turn to the book ALOT !!!!! GREAT!!!!!!!

I have had my copy for many years and when my daughter was visiting she was reading it and said that had she had this, as a mother of 2 small children, it would have saved many a visit or call to the doctor. So......I ordered her a copy (used but it was in very good condition). Not a "cure-all" by any means but offers simple remedies for minor ailments and helps to make the decision whether to call the doctor or not.

Good book - with great remedies I could put into practice at home. Simple and easy to apply. Thanks!

I thought it was a newer book and am disappointed even though it was it was recommended to me.
