Prescription for Herbal Healing: An Easy-to-Use A-Z Reference to Hundreds of Common Disorders and Their Herbal Remedies
by: Phyllis A. Balch CNC
publisher: Avery Trade, published: 2002-01-14

The popularity of herbal medicine has exploded during the past decade, with herbal remedies becoming increasingly available in such conventional outlets as drugstores and even supermarkets. Prescription for Herbal Healing brings to herbal medicine the same in-depth, easy-to-understand information and accessible style that Prescription for Nutritional Healing successfully brought to diet and nutritional supplements.

This book is divided into three parts for easy reference. Part I discusses the basic principles of herbal medicine and outlines the properties and characteristics of some one hundred sixty single herbs and sixty herbal combination formulas. Part II describes more than one hundred fifty common disorders, conveniently arranged in alphabetical order from acne to yeast infection, and names the herbal therapies that can be used in the treatment of those conditions. Part III is a guide to using various kinds of herbal and other alternative therapies. In addition, it includes self-diagnostic tests and boxed insets throughout, which offer detailed information on a wide variety of topics.

Complete coverage of Chinese and Ayurvedic herbs make this volume entirely comprehensive, and thorough scientific references lend it an authority not found in any other herbal book. Prescription for Herbal Healing is the definitive herbal resource and is a necessity for any health-conscious consumer.

Did you know? Plain old tea is wonderfully healthy! In this special report, you'll learn some amazing things about tea...

* Improve the body's circulation and blood vessel health
* Improve bone density
* Fight and prevent a variety of cancers

Prescription or Poison?: The Benefits and Dangers of Herbal Remedies
by: Amitava Dasgupta
publisher: Hunter House, published: 2010-06-08
EAN: 9780897935500
sales rank: 1243363

The widely used herbal antidepressant kava is damaging to the liver. Pregnant women should avoid most herbal remedies because of pesticides and preservatives required in the growth and storage of the herbs. Most ayurvedic medicines contain unacceptable levels of lead and other heavy metals. St. John's Wort could complicate any chronic medical condition. Many people see herbal remedies as "natural" and therefore safe, but in Prescription or Poison? Dr. Amitava Dasgupta explains that one of his first pharmacology professors taught him that "medicine" is just another word for "poison" and all medicines of any kind should be treated with great caution. This book, written for the layperson but based on solid science and research, explains how toxic many alternative remedies can be, alone or in combination with widely prescribed drug treatments. He includes detailed information on the proper use of alternative medicines and their history of good results, while also cautioning readers in this wake-up call about the casual, often uninformed, and sometimes damaging use of alternative remedies.

Natural Remedies For Anxiety and Depression

"There are many ways to beat anxiety and depression. But natural remedies are always better than prescriptive drugs. Natural remedies for anxiety and depression include St. John's Wort, Kava, flower essences, aromatherapy etc. These natural remedies have been used over the centuries and hence are reliable.

St.John's Wort is highly effective for curing anxiety and depression as it has a soothing effect on the nervous system. It is a gentle sedative which is specific for mild depression, anxiety, irritable nature etc. The product works by enhancing the amount of neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine in the central nervous system. Kava Kava or Piper methysticum is another excellent anti-anxiety herb which has the capacity to calm the nervous system. Being a muscle relaxant and mild sedative, it is particularly useful for curing anxiety, tension, depression, sleeplessness etc. But you should keep in mind not to use both the products along with other anti-depressant drugs.

Damiana is another nerve tonic which has good restorative property. Other than having calming effect, it is also popular for its aphrodisiac properties. There is yet another non-addictive sedative which can relax the nervous system, known as Passionflower. Ayurvedic herbs are also used to overcome anxiety and depression. The common one is Ashwaghanda, which is highly effective.

Aromatherapy is also one among the natural remedies for anxiety and depression. You can use Bergamot to uplift and refresh your spirit and to regain self esteem. By soothing anger and frustration, the therapy brings happiness and warmth to the heart. Cypress is used in aromatherapy to add strength and restore the troubled nervous system. It has the power to cleanse the spirit and eradicate psychic blocks which are detrimental to sound mental health. Aromatherapy makes use of Frankincense to discard fear and comfort the mind of the patient. Here breathing is slowed down instilling feelings of calm.
