The Modern Herbal Dispensatory by Thomas Easley

The beloved best-selling classic for the modern herbalist--250 safe and effective herbal medicines to make at home, now in a collectible hardcover edition

This comprehensive, full-color guide offers detailed and easy-to-follow instructions for making and using all-natural herbal remedies. With practical tips, in-depth preparation techniques, and an inside look at some of the authors' own favorite formulas, The Modern Herbal Dispensatory walks beginners and advanced herbalists alike through:

* The 12 major categories of herbs
* How to choose the best dosage form for each category of herb
* How to harvest, dry, and use fresh herbs
* Extractions, preparations, and formulas
* Advanced techniques for making and using herbal medicine
* Herbal insights and need-to-know wisdom, like why different preparations of the same herb affect the body differently; which herbs are medicinal when dry, but could be toxic when fresh; and why beginners typically see more potent results with formulations than single-herb preparations

The text includes multiple appendices, recommendations for further reading, and a helpful index. With preparations for 100+ illnesses and conditions and a comprehensive materia medica, The Modern Herbal Dispensatory is the classic plant-medicine reference manual for herbalists, natural medicine practitioners, and anyone seeking safe, holistic, at-home care and inexpensive all-natural remedies.
