Forgotten Home Apothecary : 250 Powerful Remedies at Your Fingertips

I got one, great book. Just a heads up. Teas can be used the same day. Tantures take a few weeks of sitting in a jar. The recipes are very easy to make. I am lucky I have a apothecary store not far away. But please if you pick your own herbs make sure they are properly ID and well rinsed. Stick to the dose recommended. Our bodies are not always ready for natural healing. Also the front of the book explains all the different methods, and differences. Everything from teas to gummy. I plan on getting one for my daughter. Also I like to use a high proof or alcohol, I get it at an out of state liquor store when I visit family. Also natural healing is great , but as the book recommends check with a doctor. Personally I am working on one problem at a time. I do my own research to see if the herbs will have any affect on the medication I am taking. Herbs and teas are or can be very powerful, so I always check before starting something new.

I really like this book. The index is unique and each recipe is listed in the front index and all the recipes are grouped by the part of the body it will help. The index is actually pictures of bottles with herbal items in them with the recipe name superimposed on it! How cute. I have already used a few of these recipes and they worked well. If you don't have major allergies, then you may be able to use most of these. I am careful about things like that. If you want to make your own remedies and not buy so many synthetic drugs, then you might find this a valuable. I recommend this book.

This book is clear, concise, and easy to use. It explains the rationale for the remedy very well. The instructions are numbered and lists the ingredients. Lastly it explains the dosage. It covers several common alignments. I just got the book today and it’s my favorite.

This book is pretty amazing and comprehensive. I do believe that most medicines already come from nature. I didn't realize however, that most of the ingredients I have never heard of and I'm unsure where to acquire them to know they are safe and of high quality (which is recommended in the book). For example I've never heard of dried saw palmetto, dried horse chestnut seeds, gurmar powder, bilberry, cleavers, senna leaves, forskolin root, red clover blossoms, moringa powder, yarrow flowers, to name a few that were in recipes of interest to me. I'm apprehensive about ordering the ingredients on line, not being sure of quality brands, country of origin or safety, or if I would have any allergic or adverse reaction to any of them. For those reasons this book is not for me. If you already know what your doing and have access to safely sourced, quality ingredients, and are willing to make the concoctions (drying, grinding, etc.) I think this book would be excellent.

If you are looking for natural home remedies, this is a great book. Easy to follow instructions and pictures of plants.

This book is GREAT! I've always used natural remedies, when possible. I enjoy being able to make my own, and to experiment to find what works best with any given illness. Amazed for example, on how to extract oils form seeds, and the dosages needed for different age groups and weight. Anyone who is interested in healing one's self or helping others when asked, would be grateful to have this book. It's now part of my medicinal library!

We love this book as a family we can find things to help in everyday life. Great book to have if you like Natural remedies!

My daughter is really trying to eat naturally and find natural home remedies to many health issues that her family may be going through. She has tried to look online for articles and such, but there was nothing she found that had a large compilation of natural ways to help her when treating her family of the ailments they experience.I saw this book and asked her if she would be interested in it. She said it was exactly what she was looking for, especially because it contains remedies that may no longer be used today. I was happy that it had 250 home remedies and was full of color, instead of black and white photos to help understand the book's contents.I really like that this book, "Forgotten Home Apothecary" has a nice binding so that it can last a long time with lots of use. It explains things well and in an easy to understand manner. Before giving it to my daughter, I showed it to my husband. He spent a couple days looking at it and now he wants one too.I might just get the book for each of my children, that's how strongly I feel about the benefits of this book.
