African American Old Home Remedies - Paperback

by Delano Gurley (Editor), Geraldine L. Johnson-Carter (Author)

This book is written for those who are interested in rediscovering and learning about some of the "Old Home Remedies" used by our grandparents and others who have gone before us: In the days of old, many had no other options when illness occurred, but to use herbs and natural remedies for themselves and those who came to them for the "cure". Herbs and other remedies were used also, to prevent illness and disease. The descriptive information is written mostly from my memory of my Grandmother, but even more so, from the memory of my Great-Grandmother, both of whom I have come to realize, played a very important role in who I am, and even more so, in whom I am becoming today. You will learn different recipes to make from scratch like: Essential OilsGrandma Birdies Beauty SecretsFoods Used As MedicinesHerbal TeasHerbal Healing PracticesAnd Much more....
