Title
African American Old Home Remedies - Paperback
by Geraldine L. Johnson-Carter (Author)
"Nature itself is the best physician. The art of healing comes from nature, not from the physician. Therefore the physician must start from nature, with an open mind." -Paracelsus
This book is written for those who are interested in rediscovering and learning about some of the "Old Home Remedies" used by our grandparents and others who have gone before us.In the days of old, many had no other options when illness occurred, but to use herbs and natural remedies for themselves and those who came to them for the "cure". Herbs and other remedies were used also, to prevent illness and disease. Many of the remedies I learned that you will read about come from farmers, producers, collectors, herbalists, healers and village women who all have some ideas about plants and foods that can be used as medicine. The book will be a wonderful reference and resource for those interested in natural healing techniques. I am happy to share what I have learned both in Missouri and from afar with those who are interested in African influenced Home Remedies. Here's Some Of What You'll Learn:- The History Of My Healing Ancestors
- Food Used As Medicine
- Preparation And Usage Of Herbs
- Preparing An Herbal Tea
- Preparing A Tincture
- Preparing Herbal Capsules
- Preparing Herbal Poultices
- Preparing A Decoction
- Preparing An Ointment
- Preparing A Compress
- Preparing Herbal Powders
- Essential Oils That Encourage Relaxation & Reduce Stress
- And Over 40 Home Remedies
