Book Description

Series: Old Farmer's Almanac Home Library | Publication Date: September 1997

In bygone days, the pantry and the medicine cabinet were often stocked from the same kitchen garden. Foodstuffs were both nutrition and good medicine, some preventive and some curative, but never split up the way we tend to think of them. Now we're learning in modern-day medicine what our grandparents knew all along. With this book, learn more about the foods we eat--and slow down for a soothing cup of tea, a relaxing herbal both or an invigorating spring tonic.

This review is from: Traditional Home Remedies: Time-Tested Methods for Staying Well-The Natural Way (Old Farmer's Almanac Home Library) (Paperback)

I love reading about how early settlers and even those before that in other countries cured their ailments with natural remedies. This book is quite thorough and very informative.
