#35: Book review : "The Lost Book of Herbal Remedies" Yae or Nay ? ( 4K Video )
In this video ( NOT sponsored by the author ) I will give you my honest opinion on the book called "The Lost Book of Herbal Remedies, the healing power of plant medicine" by Nicole Apelian Ph.D. and Claude Davis.
As a person studying herbalism and being heavily into self-reliance, I was looking for a practical guy to get a quick connection between herbs, how to process them and how to use them. Whether as food or as medicine.

I did get this (paperback version) many photos are grainy/digitized but luckily most of the info is correct. I have an aunt who grew up mennonite and they used a lot of this info already i their daily life. One of my moms best friends (and my often babysitter) was also raised completely natural and I learned much from both of them. I am glad I bought the book but I wish the photos in my book were better quality so I can help my nieces and nephews learn more.

There are a lot of “diy’s” with little safety measures, use the wrong type of a particular plant/herb and don’t know how to prep their herbs/plants for better results. So yes a lot of practices are lost or unknown because of misinformation. For example when Europeans were first introduced to corn and how the mayans prepared corn for consumption, they ignored a lot of steps, took it home to Spain and got a lot of people sick because they didn’t properly prepare it. People flock to KZread and TikTok from people with no detailed or thoughtful information.

They're all different & some are better than others. Don't be deceived into thinking that store brands are strong enough. Most of them are not. Most of the best methods HAVE been lost. So, if you do find a good book, hang onto it & use it.
