Helpful herbs for health and beauty (52 Brilliant Ideas)

This book is one I added to my kindle permanent folder. It has the most common ailments (depression, body aches, headaches, colds, insomnia, tummy troubles, skin issues, fertility and more) and several ideas on each so you can try different herbs to find out what works for you. I had expected a short list for each item but it is fully expanded upon for each. DIY recipes as well. Pleasantly surprised :)

There are definitely some oldie but goodie recipes for recipes for holistic cures in this book but I think calling it "brilliant" may be a bit of a stretch.If you are new to home remedies or holistic medicine, this is an okay place to start. But as there are no illustrations and the tone is fairly boring, it is not a book that you will want to pic up and read cover to cover. If you can add this to your Kindle reference stash for 99 cents, consider it. Otherwise, just Google your question or go to the local library where there are many more holistic books to choose from.

pretty good only lacking in depth in plant explanation and a bigger virility

could get lost in this book

Helpful Herbs for health and beauty is a handy book of simple herbal remedies that everyone needs in their kitchen of cookbooks except it should be in the bathroom medicine cabinet. The frontcover is attractive but the internal works of the book are not as organized - either way the remedies are useful.

very nice

So much easier for use in print format.

I learned alot with this.

Very well organized with 52 hyper-linked chapters so you can find the right herbs for different needs. Each chapter is full of useful information about various herbs, results of research, and tips. I was just going to write that it would be better to know how to find and purchase the herbs when I found a very useful resources section at the end. I will certainly dip into this book when I have a specific ailment. I was very lucky to be able to download this book for free and for that price it's certainly worth 5 stars! If I had to pay more I'd award 4 stars as I'd probably want more features such as pictures, side boxes with recipes, and a hyper-linked index of specific herbs so that I can go from the herb to the ailment rather than ailment to herb if I want to.

I liken this book as a modern version of the old fashioned 'Doctors' Book which every family had in the house back in the 40s and 50s! If there are any health problems, the book will tell you which herb will solve the problem, hopefully. It's the kind of book you can pick up and look for a solution for just about anything and is an easy read when you have a spare couple of minutes.

A very useful little book, find your ailment, look it up and then try and find the herb! Some herbs are easy to get hold of, but some are not. Some are cheap, some are not. Good book nevertheless!

A good reference book - I use it from my Kindle to check what I should do and to advise others of what it recommends for a full range of health issues

An invaluable working book helping youmaster elements of herbalism.

Alright.
