The Herbal Drugstore: The Best Natural Alternatives to Over-the-Counter and Prescription Medicines - Softcover
Synopsis
Ease symptoms, fight disease, and supercharge your immunity with hundreds of proven herbal remedies
With The Herbal Drugstore you can compare mainstream drug treatments and their herbal alternatives for almost 100 ailments. You'll find herbs that have the same healing powers as many prescription and over-the-counter medications.
Whether you need fast first-aid or long-term relief, The Herbal Drugstore has a remedy for you—712 in all! They're profiled next to their pharmaceutical counterparts, so you can make your own comparisons and decide which treatments are best for you. You'll find remedies for common health issues, including:
• Arthritis: Rub on capsaicin cream, a natural pain reliever made from hot peppers
• Insomnia: Start snoozing with valerian—it's as effective as Valium, but it isn't addictive
• Weight loss: Get a helping hand from psyllium, an herbal alternative to appetite suppressants
• Stress: Calm jangled nerves with ginseng—it won't undermine alertness
• Bronchitis: Clear up that cough with licorice, a natural expectorant
• High blood pressure: Turn to hawthorn—it has much in common with beta blockers, except for the side effects
