A comprehensive and full colour materia medica of western herbs focusing on using traditional and forgotten formulas and cures in modern practice and daily life
Outlining essential information which is often absent from modern herbal texts, Old Remedies for Modern Living details recipes for old and forgotten plant cures for over one hundred common Western herbs.
The chapters include recipes such as tisanes, cold infusions, poultices, decoctions, bath oils, infused extracts, syrups, compresses and more.
Complete with full colour photographs, the book is structured as a well-researched and in-depth A to Z of herbs. From Agrimony to Yellow Dock, the entry for each herb provides an easily accessible introduction allowing for quick referencing which lists the etymology, plant lore, edibility, seasonality, medicinal properties and active constituents.
Every entry moves on to explore the historical usage of each plant alongside modern research, as well as dosages, topical uses and precautions, concluding with a number of forgotten remedies for which each plant can be used.
Old Remedies for Modern Living is an essential text for all practitioners and students of herbal medicine, encouraging readers to treat and innovate with herbal traditions of the past in their everyday practice.
