Herbal and Holistic Methods That Work
Ever since being a mom, I’ve navigated more toward herbal and holistic methods when it comes to caring for ailments. I appreciated this book because it really lists all the positive effects of herbs, from your well-known herbs like ginseng and mint to their properties and mechanisms of action and application. Throughout the book, the author also added extra content where you can scan a QR code and unlock different topics. The book also touches upon things like blood sugar regulation or cardiovascular health and recipes for some of the herbs or even a tincture for daily heart support. There really isn’t a topic that the book doesn’t address, such as your health and ways to maintain your health naturally. Really appreciative of how Hollis was really in-depth with details.There were so many herbs that I wished I knew about that could help address a vast array of health-related issues. A perfect example was St. John’s Wort. I never heard of this herb before, but it has antidepressant properties! If you’re truly thinking about natural remedies, this book is a must get!One thing I do wish is for there to be photos of the herbs. That would have been so helpful

I’ve recently had an awakening when it comes to my health and realized I needed to do more research. This book is brilliant to understand a nature-led way to heal your body with an holistic approach. The information is not overwhelming and breaks down herbal remedies and practices in a way that’s actionable and understandable. The chapters about blood sugar and cardiovascular was the most eye-opening for me, but there’s plenty of other interesting tidbits and scientific approaches that I had zero idea about. If you are serious of looking at your lifestyle, and need a comprehensive guide to doing things naturally and holistically, then this is the way to go.
