For hundreds of years, skilled healers have been healing the sick with medicinal herbs, and by our 21st century, these remedies have already proven their effectiveness many times over. The echoes of this centuries-old experience reach even those who do not understand traditional medicine. Hardly anyone has not heard about the benefits of St. John's wort, yarrow, chamomile, calendula, coltsfoot, chicory, mint, and these are just some of the plants presented in Laura Melik's new book. Each article includes a lot of useful material about the habitat of the plant, its preparation, the beneficial substances it contains, its use in official and folk medicine, as well as contraindications and recipes - both for medicines and natural cosmetics, and for tasty and healthy dishes. With this book, your personal healer, who knows many proven recipes, is always at hand.
