A very good book on herbs to have. I actually have an old paperback copy since many years back – and I cannot let it go in place of the other newly published herbal authors.
May I please comment here on comfrey before I comment on this section.
The answer to the writer of aricles question as to why pharma discredits it, i because they cannot patent what is in nature, that is why most herbal remedies are discredited and classed as supplements.
The old addage, too much of a good thing is a bad thing, holds true, be it herbal or pharma. Most herbs that have a toxicity are used at 1 to 3 leaves depending on toxicity and mostly these herbs are used as poultices.
Pharma does not like herbologists because it kills their multi billion $ industry. Even cancer and chemo treatment is now in the spot light, an oncologist has found doxycycline can be an effective antibiotic for cancer and then there are herbs like fenugreek and dandelion that are highly effective as well. Dandelion people can dig up, dry, powder and use with minimal side effects therefore pharma will discredit it where they can.
I have added the book to my amazon cart. Goodness I am glad to have your educated recommendations. A passle of other books “I also might like” immediatey popped up.
I’ll definitely look out for this book. Currently I’m reading”Brighid’s Healing” from Gina McGarry and if you look past the folklore and age old traditions, there is some valuable tips and ‘recipes’ to learn from. Although it focuses on Ireland’s herbs, most of it you get in SA today and is useful to read up on all the uses.
I have this book recived as a gift
This sounds like the ultimate must-have herbal book! Now l I ‘MUST-have’ one too! Can’t wait to get one…hopefully soon

😀 Purchased!
It’s only about $12 on Kindle.
The hardback edition is expensive, however, the soft cover is affordable. Also, look for used listings.
Expensive book
