A guide of ancient home remedies. Practical herbal remedies from around the world that work today from ancient China, Britain, India, Europe, Scandinavia, Russia, Egypt, Africa and the Americas. I have only one problem with this book and that is organization. It might take a while for one to find exactly what they are looking for.

This has proved to be a very useful book. It includes recipes and remedies of various cultures, some of them a thousand years old or more. The book is divided to sections according to various health problems, such as aging spots, athlete's foot, colds, wrinkles and warts. The remedies listed after each condition are accompanied with a small logo which indicates the kind of remedy it describes, herbal, water-based etc. This is a feature that makes reading much easier. As far as the remedies are concerned, I've found them extremely useful. They are easy to prepare, just by opening your kitchen cabinets. Humble ingredients such as dandelions, fennel seeds, cider vinegar and yogurt, among many others, can help you improve your health following the recipes in this book. Moreover, each remedy is accompanied with a small bit of lore. This book also includes the "Four Thieves' Vinegar", a secret recipe that dates back to the age of the Black Death, a true diamond. This book is a treasure chest, filled with little secrets to heal and improve one's body and spirit alike.
