The Doctors Book of Home Remedies: Quick Fixes, Clever Techniques, and Uncommon Cures to Get You Feeling Better Fast Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I guess since its the DOCTORS version of HOME remedies they are going to send you to the drug store first for most everything. I was really hopeing for more at home remedies. Im all into natural cures that most docs dont even know about. No where did it reccomend the plant plantain for bug bite itch. It did have the bananna peel remedy for warts but it was in a small side box after it reccomended you get compound W from the store. Im not hapy with it at all. I was looking for HOME remedies. Most of the book is common sense, like for bug bites it tells you not to get bit in the first place. DUHHH. I guess I was looking more for homeopathy not what the doctor will tell you. You know the stuff you gr grandmother would have done. This book is going in the yardsale!

Ayurvedic Cooking for Self Healing Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This Ayurvedic cookbook is well suited for the beginner as well as an experienced cook. There is an introduction to Ayurveda and dosha specific eating presented in the beginning of the book. This will help you receive full benefit of the receipies and suggestions given. However if you do not care about Ayurveda the book still provides you with some of the most interesting and tasy Indian receipies (of course all vegetarian) I have had. Mrs. Lad's easy to follow instructions and down to earth approach to Indian cooking makes for an easy and succesful outcome of the cooking adventure. Great book, definitely a must in any Indian-food lover's collection.

The Doctors Book of Food Remedies: The Latest Findings on the Power of Food to Treat and Prevent Health Problems - From Aging and Diabetes to Ulcers and Yeast Infections Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This fact-filled volume has foods listed in alphabetical order, interspersed with health conditions that can be remedied. Some of the latter are intuitively expected in a book like this (e. g., heartburn, high blood pressure), while others are not (e. g., lupus, aging, motion sickness).
This work consists of 140 short chapters, each on a separate topic. This makes it easy to zero-in on a particular issue of interest or concern without getting bogged down in details and tangents. Furthermore, there is also a handy, profuse index for cross-reference of foods and health conditions.
The information presented is extensive. While some of it can pass for "conventional wisdom", other information cannot--at least not easily. Did you know, for example, that beans can stabilize blood sugar and lower cholesterol levels? Or that the quercetin found in the skins of apples can guard against heart attacks? Or that honey has both antibacterial and antibiotic properties? Or that the oleic acid found in avocados can help lower cholesterol levels? Or that the lowly, smelly onion is full of compounds that can help prevent the development of cancer and coronary heart disease?
