Your Natural Medicine Cabinet
These are things collected from various posts on what people have in their "medicine cabinet". I tried to go through many of them and pull things from what people have listed. I've also tried to include links and will be adding links as I find them. Also many of the things cross each other. Meaning many remedies can be used for different things. So just because it's not in a category doesn't mean it isn't used there.

She also has a book for adults: Smart Medicine for Healthier Living : Practical A-Z Reference to Natural and Conventional Treatments for Adults Is it any good? |
Re: Your Natural Medicine Cabinet

Re: Your Natural Medicine Cabinet
I like the "What Really Works for Kids" book because it gives a fairly basic but informative overview of natural health and is a good starting point to share with other people how you don't always have to resort to conventional drugs.
Great list by the way! Diana |

Re: Your Natural Medicine Cabinet
Thanks for the book recomendations - i was looking for a couple of good reference books for natural /herbal health guide lines...
I know about collidal silver, and some basic herbs. Does any one here do much with charcoal? We have used that for polltices, sore throats, bites, flu, for years. It is a wonderful (altho can be messy) natural remedy. thanks again, |
