Before You Begin this Book
According to a recent survey, one-third of all Americans today use herbal supplements and related products. Once relegated to a small shelf in the back of the store, herbs now account for about 25 percent of all sales in natural food stores.



Book Description

Since its original publication in 1992, Earl Mindell's Herb Bible has become the definitive guide to the world of herbal remedies. Recognized as today's leading trend in self-care, herbs can help you heal faster, live longer, and look better. In this completely updated edition, one of the world's foremost authorities on nutrition and natural remedies demystifies the language and lore of herbs, and shows you how to choose and use herbs and herbal treatments — from the traditional favorites to those on the cutting edge.

Here is new and valuable information on how herbs can treat depression and anxiety, boost energy, improve your sex life, combat aging, prevent illness, and speed healing. Highlights include:

  • Thirty new "Hot Hundred" herbs

  • A new section devoted specifically to anti-aging herbs

  • New and completely updated information on the fastest selling herbs: St. John's wort, kava kava, grapeseed extract, and green tea

  • Special updated chapters on "A Man's Body" and "A Woman's Body"

  • And much more

Commercially prepared yet free of synthetics, herbal remedies are now widely available in many forms, from teas to tinctures. Authoritative and easy to use, this comprehensive resource is an essential addition to every medicine chest.
