Traditional Home Remedies - The...

Owen Jones

I hope that you will find the information helpful, useful and profitable.
From long before the `medical profession` was remotely as reliable as it is today, people relied mostly on herbal cures. Most people had a rudimentary knowledge of the capabilities of of the flora that grew in their neighbourhood, and the older women tended to know more than most. These women were often referred to as wise women. By the way, they were the ones later persecuted by the established churches as witches,
The people who had this this superior knowledge of local herbs were heavily relied upon by the local community, and the best of the best would also `import` herbs from further afield. This knowledge has not been lost, but fewer modern men and women are in possession of it than their parents` and grandparents` generations. It could have been said to be dying out
However, there has been a revival of interest in the ancient cures, often referred to as traditional, alternative or natural remedies. There are many reasons for this. Some might be a breakdown of trust in the establishment and advertisers; the soaring cost of modern drugs; the increasing difficulty of getting to see a doctor; the side effects of strong chemical drugs; and even an upswell in the desire to return to a less chemical way of life.
Whatever the reason for your interest in this topic, I hope you enjoy this booklet.
The information in this ebook on various aspects of traditional home remedies and related ideas is organised into 19 chapters of about 500-600 words each.
