If you are looking for a book to give you advice on which herbal remedies to take if you have a cold or are down with the flu then the information in this book will be very helpful. The best advice in this book is about how you should wash your hands often and avoid touching your nose or eyes. This will keep you well most of the time and I'd also recommend you disinfect shopping cart handles when you go grocery shopping.This book will teach you the difference between a cold and the flu and the author explains why antibiotics are not helpful to treat a cold. There is also some advice about why it is better to take ibuprofen instead of aspirin.Now all the herbs discussed in this book really do work. In fact I noticed that most of the herbs are in a tea I buy calledTraditional Medicinals Seasonal Herb Tea Sampler -- 16 Tea Bags. The Gypsy Cold Care tea has hyssop in it as well as peppermint and ginger.One remedy this book does not discuss is Olive Leaf Extract which I find very helpful at the first sign of a cold. Normally I get a sore throat when I'm getting sick and have found Olive Leaf Extract to be very helpful. I takeNature's Way Olive Leaf 20% Oleuropein, 60 Vcaps.The author of this book also recommends Yoga sun salutations and acupressure as remedies.Overall I think this is a good overview of natural remedies and hopefully you will find something that will take away your illness.By reviewing this book I take no responsibility for your health. Please research remedies on your own to make sure they are safe for you.~The Rebecca Review
