Excellent resource for natural treatment of the day to day ailments that families face. Includes a color photo guide to medicinal herbs, recipes for everything from allergies to colds and flu, sunburn to teeth issues. There is a section on dosing for babies and children and recipes for many childhood afflictions. This book is a great complement to any home natural health library.

An excellent resource in every way -- beautiful color photos, informational on all kinds of herbs, simple recipes, helpful advice and more. There is a separate section just for ailments for babies and kids. This is one of the best herbal books I've read in a while (and I read a lot of them). I would like more detailed dosage information for individual herbs, but it's still a great book. Well recommended.

I read a temporary digital ARC of this book for review.

Medicinal Herbs for Family Health and Wellness: 123 Trusted Recipes for Common Concerns, From Allergies & Asthma to Sunburns & Toothaches by JJ Pursell is a great reference for keeping the family healthy using herbal medicine. The same author wrote Medicinal Herbs for Immune Defense.

The book is laid out much the same as the immune defense book with a thorough layout of the types of preparations in the beginning of the book along with dosages for adults. There is a section at the back dedicated to babies and children. In the middle of the book is all the info you need of the medicinal herbs used in the book, as well as the recipes.

These recipes are less preventative, and more useful for things that are happening now and what you can apply to remedy it, such as a kitchen burn, a bug bite or insomnia.

I think my favorite section was the "Bad Dreams & Scary Things" section, providing recipes for a soothing Monster-Rid Sachet and a No-Monsters-Allowed Spray. Her monster-away spray suggested using relaxing oils, which is such a wonderful idea after an upsetting day. Loved that section.

Overall, another great book on herbal medicine by this author for anyone interested, beginners or advanced, in preparing herbal wellness preparations at home.

This book was reviews on my garden blog.

It's a nice book with lots of informations about medicinal herbs and there are recipes at the end for all common illness like cold, diarrhea, fever and others. The ingredients for the recipes look hard to get. They use a lot of essences, oils and herbs. I received a free digital copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review
