The Lost Book of Herbal Remedies 2 is the long-awaited sequel to the best-selling The Lost Book of Herbal Remedies, a transformative resource that has already improved the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. This second volume builds on the foundation of the first, introducing entirely new plants and remedies to expand your knowledge of natural healing. Together, these two books cover nearly every medicinal plant and provide an extensive guide to the most effective natural remedies that can be made at home.
Written by Dr. Nicole Apelian, an herbalist with over 25 years of practical experience, this book dives deep into the forgotten wisdom of using common plants and so-called “useless weeds” to create powerful remedies. Many of the treatments showcased were widely used by previous generations but have since faded from memory in a world increasingly reliant on prescription medicine. Dr. Apelian’s expertise ensures that these remedies are practical, reliable, and easy to implement.
This book is an indispensable guide for anyone seeking alternatives to pharmaceuticals, especially during times when modern medicine may be inaccessible or unaffordable. The plants and remedies within these pages ensure that nature’s pharmacy will always be available, as long as you know how to access it. The book features 139 new medicinal plants, each accompanied by large, detailed photographs to make identification simple. In addition to detailed plant profiles, you’ll find over 207 new remedies, complete with clear instructions and recipes to help you craft them at home.
The book also includes a fascinating exploration of medicinal mushrooms, lichens, and trees, as well as common backyard plants that are often overlooked despite their healing potential. Whether you’re a seasoned herbalist or a beginner eager to learn, The Lost Book of Herbal Remedies 2 is a rich and valuable resource that preserves the ancient knowledge of natural medicine for generations to come.
