  • Great book from an MD who is humble enough to learn from the old folks and their wisdom.

  • FOLK MEDICINE by DR JARVIS
In 1988 my Mom could not sit, feed herself, or function in a multitude of ways. The crazy thing was this all occured within a 30 day stretch of time. She was diagnosed w/severe arthritis & put on heavy meds. They gave her some relief but that is all. I took out every book in the county library determined to find a cure. After researching through many, many books I came across this little gem. I will tell you that I immediately started my mother on apple cider vinegar, honey, and water. When we returned for her first revisit to her rhumetologist there was no swelling, or outward appearances of her ever having had arthritis. He had us go to the lab for bloodwork, and called us within a couple of days. So back we went, only for him to tell us that there were no longer any indications of the arthritis, and had he not examined her himself initially he would swear that we got the wrong lab work. My Mom passed away in 2009 and never had another day of arthritic pain. Not only that, but her severe struggles with phlegm disappeared also. These are a few of the things I learned from this book. This doctor should be lauded for his years of searching for the reason why a whole area of the US is/was arthritis free; that's right, no arthritis in the populace for over a decade. Do yourself a favor & read this gem. ... show more

  • the wonders of honey and vinegar!
i had a copy of Dr. Jarvis' book many years ago and having lent it to someone, it disappeared from my book shelves. a friend of mine has rather severe arthritis and i remembered that there was a formula for honey and vinegar in this book that had helped 2 or 3 people that i had known. also, two tsp of vinegar do wonders for my digestive tract. just for my general well-being i now begin each day with a glass of water, 2 tsp of honey and 2 tsp of vinegar. tastes really good and i am convinced that everybody should be taking this "wonder drug". the book was delivered within the stated delivery time and it is remarkably good condition. ... show more

  • Makes you think
Reading this book is very enlighting. The medical community is coming around to the authors way of thinking. Apple cider vinager is such a staple of life. It has come full circle from the writting of this book to now. It makes me stop and think how simple his suggestions are in comparasion to what todays doctors expect you to do and pills to take. If you are at all interested in apple cider vinager and it's benefits, then this book is well worth it. ... show more

  • Folk Medicine (Which Should be in Vogue Nowadays)
This is one awesome little book. I read it and implemented it. I feel better from it. We've gotten away from the traditional methods of health that were so much less expensive - immediately and in the long run. I love that we can still get these kinds of information and they are not lost or totally forgotten. Thank you for offering it to us! ... show more
