Ancient remedies Secrets to healing with herbs, essential oils, CBD, and the most powerful natural medicine in history
Book - 2021
Draws on centuries of traditional Chinese, Ayurvedic, and biblical medicine to identify specific dietary choices, medicinal herbs, and mind-body practices for more than seventy common conditions, from hypothyroidism to autoimmune diseases. In Ancient Remedies, Dr. Axe explores the foundational concepts of ancient healing--eating right for your type and living in sync with your circadian clock. Readers will learn how traditional practitioners identified the root cause of each patient's illness, then treated it with medicinal herbs, mushrooms, CBD, essential oils, and restorative mind-body practices. What's more, they'll discover how they can use these ancient treatments themselves to cope with dozens of diseases, from ADHD to... diabetes, hypothyroidism, autoimmune disease, and beyond. Through engaging language and accessible explanations, Ancient Remedies teaches readers everything they need to know about getting, and staying, healthy--without toxic, costly synthetic drugs.--
