Herbalism at Home: 125 Recipes for Everyday Health is a beautiful book and a very helpful addition to our library of health related books. My husband and I rely heavily on herbs in our foods and smoothies and feel like they have played a part in slowing down the advance of his autoimmune disease, CIDP. Now I have an easy reference and recipe book for making all kinds of "herbalism remedies, like teas, tinctures, salves, creams, and poultices".
The book makes everything seem so accessible and easy to understand and it looks pretty on my kitchen book rack. Thank you to Callisto Publishing and Rockridge Press for providing this book in exchange for an honest review.

For beginning herbalists like myself, this book is amazing. It has profiles of 40 different herbs and instructions to make creams, tinctures, salves, and more. Then the book provides instructions to use those creams, tinctures, and salves to treat illnesses and conditions such as headaches, acne, digestive problems, scars, and many other illnesses and conditions.
For anyone who is interested in natural healing, this book is a must for your library.

This is a good intro book to herbalism that gives profiles for 40 herbs (30 main ones and 10 bonus ones) and then 125 recipes for remedies for all sorts of conditions.
I appreciated that most of the herbs are common ones and many can be grown or foraged, and some of my favorite herbs are listed here like stinging nettles, plantain, burdock, ginger, catnip and dandelion. That said, Brown has omitted some of my main go-to herbs that are some the most commonly used ones like chamomile, elderberries, red clover, mullein, garlic, raspberry leaf, lavender, rose hips and sage. I also probably wouldn't include plants like poke in a beginner book since it should be used with such caution (she does provide these cautions).
Herbs covered in this book: blackberry, black haw, black walnut, burdock, California poppy, catnip, dandelion, ginger, goldenrod, gotu kola, ground ivy, hawthorn, milky oats, monarda, motherwort, mugwort, plantain, prunella, queen anne's lace, reishi, rosemary, st. john's wort, spearmint, spilanthes, stinging nettles, thyme, vitex, wild cherry, wild lettuce, yarrow.
Then 10 bonus "nice to have" herbs are profiled that are used occasionally in the recipes: borage, calendula, cleavers, comfrey, lemon balm, New England aster, passionflower, poke, saw palmetto, yellow dock.
Recipes are provided for the following categories: common ailments, emotional well being, common childhood conditions, women's health, men's health, aging, personal care.
Small stock photos of each herb are provided, but not enough to work for ID purposes for foragers. No photos are provided of the recipes.
This will make a great book for someone new to herbalism and can also be a great addition to an herbal library. I probably will not be able to use it much, since Brown relies so heavily on plants that I don't grow or forage and so little on those that I do. My herbal cabinet contains 30 to 40 kinds of dried herbs and tinctures and I still would probably need to order at least one herb for most of her recipes. That said, I do hope to try some of her recipes (with minor adaptations) and appreciate the wide variety of recipes provided.

Herbalism at Home: 125 Recipes for Everyday Health by Kristine Brown, RH (AHG)
Callisto Media

I received a complimentary print copy of this pre-published book from Callisto Publisher’s Club and the author. My review is completely unbiased and voluntary.
I was extremely interested in reading this book as I am a certified holistic health coach with an interest in natural remedies. I also am invested in the use of essential oils and herbs as a preventative measure to ward off illness.
The author presents the information in a user friendly format providing an explanation about herbalism and what essentials are needed to have on hand. She includes tools as well as basic herbs and ingredients you may already have in your pantry.
The important information relates to the description and uses for the herbs she recommends in her recipes. It’s critical to note that just because something is “natural” doesn’t mean it is without safety precautions. Some herbs or extracts can be dangerous or poisonous if not used properly. The author details the manner in which to prepare and use each of the herbs safely.
There’s a glossary with resources and references at the end which is always helpful for those new to herbal treatments. A point to note is that the author also acknowledges how necessary it is to consult with your doctor before adding any remedies to your regimen if you are currently under the care of a medical provider. Also, I must comment that the liberal use of relating recipes to medical diagnoses are discouraged and prohibited by the FDA so these recipes should in no way be construed as a “treatment” for such ailments.

Full disclosure: I received a copy from the publisher for review and I know the author.
I was so worried knowing the author that I would have a difficult time reviewing this book, but I absolutely loved it. It could have been just one more beginner book that I'd say some nice things about and put on my shelf, but this will be so much more for me. Kristine covers how many of us have approached herbalism. Many of us began due to questions or concerns about that poor or lack of care we received through traditional medical practices on basic issues (she shares personal examples). Not having loads of money many of us can't chase down a second opinion and begin looking for something else. That is where herbs have come through like a dandelion growing through cracks in the concrete. One can find herbs all around in the back yard, down the street, or even in the spice cabinet. The other ingredients used to make simple preparations are accessible and when teas, tinctures, or oils are made, they can be applied in multiple ways for multiple things making them quite cost effective.
I have seen reviews complain about the selection of herbs she covers in the book. Some say they are not common, but what on Earth does that mean? I have all of these herbs in my Midwest rural yard and they are also readily available on bike paths and other weedy places all around not to mention she has a resource section in the back where one can also purchase the herbs if needed. I find it refreshing that she colored outside the lines by choosing a few less talked about but plentiful (weedy) herbs. Speaking of coloring, one thing I thought I would really miss are Kristine's drawings. If you are not already familiar, Kristine is an artist also and has an ezine called Herbal Rootzine aimed at kids but a great resource for all ages. I actually loved that I could hear her voice and experience through her words and I hardly noticed any of the images in the book because I kept wanting to see what she was going to say about each herb or preparation.
Want recipes? There are loads in this book and they go beyond basic first aid. You will also find personal care recipes. As mentioned there is a resource section and glossary. I feel confident that a beginner could pick up this book, read, make, and use herbs with confidence.

I’m intrigued with natural remedies to use for myself and family. I have picked up a few books on the subject over the years.
Some of the herbs I haven’t used and some of them aren’t the common ones I usually have on-hand. Thanks to the internet now days you can easily order them or if you’re fortunate enough to have them available at a store in your town that carries herbs. This book gave me a glimpse into some ones that I haven’t used or maybe it’s just uncommon with me.
I liked how she gives you an overview of an idea pantry should look like and several methods of drying and preparing them. The book is very nicely presented for the novelist and those who still are learning.
A good mix of common remedies from lice, fever popsicles, warts, and others remedies. Also some like kidney, diabetes, liver health. Chapters devoted to women’s and men’s health.
The chapters:
Introduction
Part One What to know about Herbalism
Chapter One Herbalism
Chapter Two The Starter Pantry
Chapter Three Herbal Preparations
Part Two Recipes
Chapter Four Common Ailments
Chapter Five Emotional Well-Being
Chapter Six Common Childhood Conditions
Chapter Seven Women's Health
Chapter Eight Men's Health
Chapter Nine Aging
Chapter Ten Personal Care
Glossary
Resources and References
General Index
Ailment Index
I was a bit surprised to not see some herbs that I personally use regularly like garlic, elderberry, and even mullein that I love for chest congestion. I don’t think I’ve not seen my staples in any books that I have or seen.
One thing I wished for with this particular book was more photos of the herbs. I’m not that learned in identifying them without some help. I would have to grow it myself or buy it. Personally I prefer to know what something looks like before I purchase it because of human error.
Overall a very informative book that I think I can adapt to my family some of the recipes.

Part One of this book talks about the history and benefits of herbalism, equipment and basic ingredients that you need to make the herbal recipes, and an encyclopedia of common herbs and their uses. This includes instructions for drying your own herbs, and types of poultices, syrups, powders, and massage oils. There is an entire chapter with advice on making your own herbal teas, tinctures, tonics, elixirs, salves, ointments, and baths.
Part Two is the actual recipes for herbal mixtures, including remedies for cough, asthma, digestive troubles, nausea, eczema, bug bites, cuts and scrapes, acne, earache, lice, warts, chickenpox, bladder infections, menstrual cramps, hair loss, acid reflux, diabetes, tinnitus, and dozens more. There are also blends for emotional relief from anxiety, insomnia, stress, depression, and PTSD.
There are chapters with recipes for Women's Health, Men's Health, Childhood Conditions, Emotional Well-Being, and Aging. There is even a chapter with Personal Care recipes for bath oils, shaving cream, bug repellent, sun care cream, facial cleansers, beard oil, mouthwash, and tooth powder.
There is a glossary at the end for some of the more specific terms and chemicals, as well as a Resource section with other books, magazines, websites, and shops where ingredients can be purchased.
I appreciated that the recipes give clear instructions, and there is a lot of good information in this book. Even if the reader knows nothing about herbs or how to prepare them, anyone would be able to start with this book and find it simple to get started!
I really love the colorful photos and illustrations of the different herbs. The book has beautiful green endpapers with plants and flowers on them.
I can't wait to try some of these luxurious recipes!

"Herbalism at Home" is a beginner guide to herbalism. She started by explaining the different tools, materials, and herbs needed for the recipes in this book. She provided profiles on blackberry, black haw, black walnut, burdock, California poppy, catnip, dandelion, ginger, goldenrod, gotu kola, ground ivy, hawthorn, milky oats, monarda, motherwort, mugwort, plantain, prunella, Queen Anne's lace, reishi, rosemary, St. John's wort, spearmint, spilanthes, stinging nettles, thyme, vitex, wild cherry, wild lettuce, yarrow, borage, calendula, cleavers, comfrey, lemon balm, New England aster, passionflower, poke, saw palmetto, and yellow dock. These profiles included the Latin name, any safety considerations, the parts of the plant used, what it does and its uses, how to prepare it (tincture, tea, syrup, etc.), and dosage.
She also explained how to make herbal teas, tinctures, tonics and elixirs, infused oils, salves, syrups, powders, baths, compresses, poultices, and plasters. She provided 125 recipes using these herbs to treat common health problems, from splinters to colds and more.
I liked her step-by-step instructions on how to make things like tinctures, compresses, etc. While a useful book, it's my understanding that some herbalists would not use comfrey or poke due to safety considerations, so it seems odd to me to use them in a beginner book. Some of these herbs are also not commonly talked about, like black haw. It was useful to know about more herbs, but I don't have them on hand. Since most of the recipes used 4 to 6 herbs, they often included one of these more unusual ones. But, overall, I'd recommend this book.

“Figuring of the world’s thousands upon thousands
of herbs to use can be daunting.
This book presents the basics of herbal preparations…
Ready to get started?”
Kristine Brown, Introduction, page ix
Part One: Chapters 1-3 contains information regarding herbalism, The Starter Pantry, and Herbal preparations explaining tisane, diffusion, decoction, infusion, tincture, acetum, tonics, and elixir usage. Part Two: Chapters 4-10 contains recipes for Common Ailments, Emotional Well-Being, and Personal Care naming a few.
Included are a Glossary which is useful, that explains the listed properties for herb use. The Resources and References section lists books, magazines, supplies, websites, and educational herbal schools for purposes that are more informational. The Ailment Index is helpful for looking up aches and pains you may want to address for herbalism ingredients.
You will need a dictionary as I did to understand some of the properties listed under each herb. Overall, this is an excellent reference book for those wanting to get started in herbalism, even though it is a learning process. I did not try any of the recipes in this book because there were far too many herbs in the recipes I wanted to test that I could not easily get a hold.

Herbalism is something that has been around for centuries. As time goes by, we learn more about the herbs that are safe for ingestion or to be placed on the skin. If you want to delve into herbalism, it's important to be safe, know your herbs, and reference good books on the subject, like this one.
Brown did an excellent job compartmentalizing the sections of this book, and you will find lengthy info on common and uncommon herbs. There is also a magnificent section full of recipes, of which I can't wait to try out even more than I already have.
This is a great book for anyone looking for natural remedies.
This was a free review book from the publisher. I am unbiased.
