Herbal Remedies Handbook: More Than 140 Plant Profiles; Remedies for Over 50 Common Conditions

I love that this book is like a mini encyclopedia for herbs. It tells you what herbs work well together, what each one is good for and when to avoid taking one. It’s simple and straightforward.

I love this book! It is very informative and has a few pages dedicated to both what helps with certain health problems, types of remedies, and how to make your own! I would recommend this to anyone wanting a casual book on herbs or for someone to use on a regular basis.

Update: Well, now I feel like a fool. My mom had gotten me the same exact book at a library book sale for 25 cents many months back. Herbal Remedies Handbook is the same book as the one published in 2007 by Andrew Chevallier called Herbal Remedies. The new one is just updated in its design. Every herb is still on the same page with identically worded descriptions. So I wasted my money on a book I already own that is promoted and sold as a brand new one. I paid for this book, unlike many of the other reviewers, and it's absolutely worth it. I own a couple other Andrew Chevallier books, including his comprehensive Encyclopedia of Herbal Medicine. I wanted something of the same caliber, but smaller and easier to navigate. This herbal remedies handbook is perfect for the needs of every herbalist and anyone looking to learn how to heal themselves and their loved ones through herbal medicine. This book covers all the basics of natural home medicine-making, and outlines the details of many important herbs. The book is compact enough to carry in a medium-sized purse or bag and it's a fantastic addition to your herbal library. I highly recommend it, particularly since Andrew Chevallier's knowledge and expertise is among the most respected in the herbal medicine world. Get it!

Provides great info and reasoning behind what it is saying. Remedies are simple and easy, well explained and the details are clear

One of my favorite herbal books, so much information provided. Has some great recipes to follow

Love this guide.

I reach for this constantly. Definitely need this and the heat al remedies encyclopedia together! Love both books!

No issues with book. Came as expected.

Lots of helpful info

Chevallier is a reputable herbalist and the herbal monographs manage to pack in a lot of information in comparatively small spaces (1-3 x A5 pages for each entry). Strongly recommended

Excellent info

I was relly looking forward to this book, from reading reviews... Sadly, I find it lacking a lot of important info, the font is extremely small so I can't even read it with my glasses on. I have to use my phone on camera option to enlarge the font, but this book is also very tiny/narrow that it is very hard to hold it open with one hand and use my phone to enlagre the font with the other hand to read. Lots of very nice quality picture. the parper is of very good quality as well. Sadly, its not what I expected at all. Would only recommend if you have excellent sight and are not looking for detailed info n herbs and their uses... its very incomplete. There are better books out there. Considering returning it
