How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book on home medicine
Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2021
If you’ve ever thought about creating your own medicinal items in your kitchen but didn’t know where to begin, then this book is just what you need.

Medicinal Herbs for Immune Defense has 104 recipes for all sorts of ailments that you can create at home using things you can grow in your garden. Pursell talks in detail about 60 essential herbs and plants that go into the many recipes, but she also states that if you concentrate on say 20, really get to know them then you’ll have the information you need to really create a preparation unique to your circumstance – if you know how an herb performs and what it can do you’re equipped to make something useful.

The 60 herbs and plants have pictures, the common and scientific names, and what parts of the plant is used in medicine (like the flowers, petals, rhizomes or roots, leaves, stems, bark, seeds, berries, the whole plant, the fruit, etc.)

What do you do with the plants? You make the preparations. I loved how the author describes each and details how they are prepared. This is a highly useful book for taking care of ailments and sickness using things you have in the garden or can get in nature. I think it should be in everyone’s library.

This book was provided by the publisher and any opinions are my own.

Medicinal Herbs for Immune Defense: 104 Trusted Recipes for Fighting Colds, Flus, Fevers, and More by JJ Pursell
Publisher: Timber Press
Genre: Health, Mind & Body
Release Date: 02 Feb 2021

Medicinal Herbs for Immune Defense by JJ Pursell is a great resource for identifying herbs to boost your immune system naturally.

There are instructions of how to make your own capsules, essential oil blends, fomentations, liniments, medicinal teas and more.

Each herb described includes a picture, as well the benefits and which parts are used.

The recipes are broken into different topics, such as Allergies, Chest Colds, Coughs, Cuts & Scrapes, Earaches, Fevers, Immune Boost, Laryngitis, Sinus Relief, Sore Throat and so much more.

I found this book to be fascinating and I look forward to trying some of the recipes. If I could relieve my allergies without the need of 3 prescription medications I would be so happy!

This is a great resource and I recommend it to anyone looking for information on natural remedies and immune support.

I'm so grateful to JJ Pursell, Timber Press, and NetGalley for providing me with a free copy of this ARC ebook in exchange for my honest review.
