I bought this book due to suffering from severe allergies to several chemicals and medicinal drugs. Because of this I have to treat doctors/commercial medicine as a "last resort" when ill. The book is well-written but very easy to read. Each example/recipe is followed up with information on why the treatment tends to work. There are even interesting bits of historical information. The authors...who all work in the medical field... are very smart by explaining when you should go see a doctor. SOMETIMES it is better in the long run to support the body's own immune system that to swallow something artificial.
Most importantly, the majority of ingredients are easy to get locally, buy online or grow in your own backyard.
Give this book a try. Its a great starting point for learning more about home health/natural healing.
