Each listing explains the specific ailments which that herb can remedy, as well as instructions on how to use it, precautions, scientific research and botanical information. Health problems which are addressed include digestive disorders, those of the mind and emotions, women's and men's health issues, metabolism, pain, arthritis and inflammation, circulation and many more.
