Learning to manage acute and chronic symptoms naturally and safely is a goal for many families. Created for beginners, but applicable to anyone, this guide introduces readers to 33 effective medicinal herbs. From identifying the character and nature of the plants to growing and using herbs, she provides helpful information, beautiful photographs and illustrations, and easy to follow recipes to ease common symptoms. Some of the remedies covered include echinacea spray for sore throats, aloe lotion for poison ivy or oak, garlic ear oil and much more!

While I appreciate the author's caution about using herbs short term (and taking a cleansing break when treating chronic conditions), if readers are taking medications or have a chronic disease, they should check with their physician or pharmacist before using herbal formulas.
