From the Back of the Book:
Home remedies are derived from readily available natural resources and are perfected through experience. These may range from treatments based on physical exercises, using Panchtatava, the five elements (earth, air,water,fire and sky), concentrating mental powers (as in meditation) to employing herbal extracts or whole herbs for deriving health benefits and of course consuming a balanced diet to keep diseases at bay.
The following narration is full of fascinating herbal therapies which are easy to follow and adopt. Combing herbal treatment with synthetic drugs could have synergistic effect. It can at times be highly risky due to incompatibility. For general ailments however relying on natural treatments is a wiser choice. Compartmentalizing herbal, homeopathy and drug based therapies and using one system of treatment at a time is an ideal situation.
We have made an attempt to describe the treatment for some selective ailments in this book. The essential features incorporate the procedure of preparing the medicine duration of treatment and necessary precautions if any.
For preparing the medicine often powdering or maceration is required. It is advised that a porelain pestle and mortar be used for this purpose, instead of using an electrical mixie or homogenizer. This is to avoid metal contact with the greens which may have potential curative enzymes. For storing purpose glass bottles with tight lids are ideal.
