Essential Guide to Herbs

This book is an excellent guide for beginners and experienced herbalists as well. It offers so much information about how each herb (51 of them are listed here) can assist you with digestive issues, anti-inflammatory help, skin conditions, and so much more! It painstakingly goes through each herb, identifying its healing properties, how to use it, and even grow it. A final chapter helps on how to shop for the best, freshest herbs. This is truly a back-to-basics book that I will refer to often! (This also includes a PDF when purchased). I highly recommend it as your definitive herbal resource guide.

Excellent Listen!

Author Peter Last, a health coach and publisher, did an excellent job demystifying the enchanting world of natural herbs and spices in his audiobook, "Back To Basics: Lost in the Herbal Wilderness". This book is a great beginner's guide to traditional healing and medicinal cooking. I had no idea about the health benefits and medicinal qualities of so many items that you can find right in your pantry!

What caught my attention right away about this book is that the narrator, Shania Lynn, is a registered nurse! This adds a sense of validation to the facts being read. My favorite chapter was the one about cinnamon. Did you know cinnamon aids in regulating blood sugar control, is an excellent antioxidant as well as an anti-inflammatory? This book taught me that you can easily sprinkle some cinnamon on oatmeal or smoothies, brew a cinnamon stick in hot water, or add some to a yummy curry.

I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to embark on a holistic journey!

Extremely educational 

This book is fantastic. I had no idea all the benefits in different herbs. I love how the author broke down medicinal benefits, how to use the herb & how to cook with the herb. Also going through each individual type was extremely educational. I will be buying the paperback version so that I can reference it.
