內容簡介
內容簡介 There are hundreds of herbal medicine books on the market. From a preparedness standpoint, most are useless. Sure, they'll tell you dandelion is good for liver problems or reducing cholesterol levels. Or that plantain relieves mosquito bites. But does that reference tell you whether to use the flower, leaf, or root? When to harvest it for maximum potency? Whether it must be used fresh or dried? Whether the active constituents (what's going to make you well) are extracted best with water, alcohol, oil, or vinegar? Whether they're best extracted with heat or cold? The dosage? Contraindications and cautions? Does that reference only cover sniffles and sore throats? Or are serious communicable diseases like measles and tuberculosis also addressed? Is that reference for herbs that grow in your area, or are you supposed to order the exotic herbs online? Are the herbal formulas too complex for everyday use? Armageddon Pharmacy: Herbal Medicine When the Drugstore Is Closed shows exactly what to harvest and when, and how to process the herbs into powerful remedies for serious illnesses-ulcers, UTIs, influenza, pneumonia, cholera, and so much more. You'll use the medicine that surrounds you in your garden, neighborhood, and parks, and you'll know that it's free from pesticides and other poisons. Because you harvested and processed the herbs correctly, the medicine is at peak potency. You'll confidently care for your family with safe and effective herbal antibiotics and antivirals, pain relievers, fever reducers, and more. Your loved ones will survive and thrive, even when the drugstore is closed.
