Some good information and some not so good information
Published by Cindy Lear , 1 year ago
This book has alot of useful information. There are somethings I disagree with using though such as aluminum deodorant, petroleum products like Vaseline and consuming seed oils. All of those are toxins for the body. I like the information on using natural things to combat the everyday ailments. But overall it's not a bad book.
common sense

A very nice book. It's easy reading and lots of sources to follow up on if you want to research it further. It lists very common types of ailements and health problems with good old fashion home type of remedies. This book is good it you want to look beyond the "pill and drugs" that doctors usually push on you first and some actually work! (not that I doubted them), in fact there were a few in here I remember as a child with my mom. So good reading, good source and you can't lose on simple easy cures.
A Must Have Book

As an alternative health user for many, many years, I cannot recommend this book strongly enough. It is an "At-a-glance" kind of book that anyone whom is less than thrilled with allopathic medicine should have on their kitchen table. Excellent book!
Cool!!!

This book is really cool. I've heard my grandma tell me some of these a long time ago. So many. It is really cool.
I found the book worth while.

I don't know about the other items, but I found it an excellent guide to lower my high cholesterol. In an 7 month period I lowered my total cholesterol from 254 to 172 and I raised my good cholesterol by more then 10% (I try to implement everything the book recommended). This book and "The World's Greatest Treasury of Health Secrets" I contribute to this. I like the book because they had doctors document which types of home remedies work and which ones do not.
