Native American Herbal Remedies,

This review is from: Secrets of Native American Herbal Remedies: comph GT Native amern Tradition Using Herbs Mind/Body/Spirit Connection for ipvg (Healing Arts) (Paperback)
I thought that this book was informative. He describes the herb, and the tribe(s) that used it, and how. There is several pages on the tribal tradition, but I would have liked to have seen more indepth about several of the more common tribes and their herbal medicinal usage and practices.
I really appreciated the author bringing together how the whole person must be treated in order to treat dis-ease. This is really missing in allopathic medicine. I would recommend this book to any herbal practitioner that would like a different view of herbal treatment, using traditional Native American ways. Kathy Miller

Another book you don't loan out, you'll miss having it for reference.
It lists recipes for ailments, and companies where you can purchase the items needed in the mixes. I had to buy more than one, one for loans, one for keeps. The best advice is also given in this book, just because one mix worked for another, it may not be the same for you. We are all different, and so are the many different species of plants. So it doesn't just give you one recipe for one ailment, unlike so many other herbal books.

I believe this book is a "must-buy"; whether you want to discover the wonders of Native American traditional medicines or just interested in herbs. It's easy to read, and Dr. Cichoke provides the remedies for many illnesses.
