  • It’s good
As a beginner I liked how the information was presented. Logical. Not overwhelming. Also there were a good variety of plants that are easily obtainable. Again not overwhelming. Perhaps if delve deeper into the topic I would want something more far reaching but this is perfect for now.

  • A lot of information...
There's great information in the book, I just thought there would be more on the aspect of healing and specific medical herbs... Don't get me wrong there's a lot to consume, just not as much as I expected, as far as tinctures and herbal blends... You know something more of a recipe/remedies guide... ie... Fermented garlic and honey for colds and cough, oregano oil as an antibiotic and joint relief ect... ... show more

  • Herbal medicine for the win
Ok so I honestly bought this book after seeing a TikTok about a DIFFERENT book. This one is perfect. It’s easy to read and not too wordy. It lays out all the herbs at the beginning telling you how they aid your body and later on gives you recipes to make your own herbal medicine. I really wanted something easy to flip through because let’s be honest, I don’t want to spend a ton of time reading about herbs…. I just want to get better when I’m sick. 10/10. ... show more

  • Super informational
Has a lot of different herbs and remedies. Pretty basic plant/remedy information, very colorful, very much more of a reference book than just reading on your couch. Very petite but thick book.

  • A starter's Guide to Herbal Medicine
First off, this book is huge! It features an amazing amount of herbal remedy recipes for common ailments and general wellness, as well as a section detailing the various uses for many medicinal herbs. Since it's an ebook, you can search for your specific herb or affliction, making this an incredibly useful reference for anyone looking for natural solutions to common ailments. These days with all the high prices and side effects of traditional medicine I have been thinking of trying more natural ways to heal ailments and sickness. It warns you that even though it's natural it can be dangerous and tells you what you need to do to make sure you keep it safe. I really love that in chapter four they tell you how to make herbal remedies. I have been looking for a good herbal cough medicine. This time of year we are always fighting a cough and the over the counter cough syrups have so many side effects that I would rather not take it and suffer. Now I have a good herbal recipe with stuff I already have in my cupboard. They give you a long list of all of the healing herbs and what they heal. It's amazing to know that something like asthma and diabetes. I really can't wait to try some natural deodorant and some recipes for dry skin. Even though I received this book for free I am very happy I read this book and look forward to becoming more natural in my daily life. Curious about natural remedies, I enjoyed the many safety tips included in the guide. For example, a remedy that's safe for adults may be unsafe for children but there are child-centric remedies as well. You'll learn how to grow and make your own remedies, but not without knowing what to watch out for first. Overall Verdict: If you’re like me and fairly new to preparing herbal remedies, I highly recommend this book. If you’re already advanced at herbal remedies it may not be your best fit. Disclosure: I received free copy of this book for review purposes. My opinions are my own. ... show more
