A Guide to Herbal Remedies by Helen Mayhew Pdf

According to calculations made by the World Health Organisation the use of herbal remedies throughout the world exceeds that of so called conventional drugs by two or three times. This despite the existence since the beginning of this century of a worldwide and influential pharmaceutical industry. We also know that medicines derived from plants predate any other form of medication and that until the last few centuries all human experience of medicine is based upon them. It is now understood that even animals choose to eat certain plants for 'medical' purposes. Given this overwhelming dominance it is perhaps surprising that the use of herbs as remedies has such a low profile in English speaking countries and that a book like this should be necessary. However, following the Industrial Revolution, Britain and the United States (unlike other European cultures) have turned their backs on Nature's remedies and over the last century or so we have lost many of the simple skills of our forbears. The current return to these skills is very welcome; and at the same time considerable scientific evidence has accumulated for the efficacy of herbal remedies. They have their own advantages which complement conventional drugs. This book lays out very clearly what these advantages are. A GUIDE TO HERBAL REMEDIES contains: Herbal Remedies in common use and where to obtain them. How to select and use herbal remedies An alphabetical list of Symptoms with herbal remedies A Herbal First Aid Herbal remedies for Children A full glossary

Phytopharmacy by Sarah E. Edwards,Ines da Costa Rocha,Elizabeth M. Williamson,Michael Heinrich Pdf

Healthcare professionals, including doctors, pharmacists and nurses, are often confronted with patients who use over-the-counter (OTC) herbal medicinal products and food supplements. While taking responsibility for one’s own health and treatment options is encouraged, many patients use these products based on limited (and sometimes inaccurate) information from non-scientific sources, such as the popular press and internet. There is a clear need to offer balanced, well-informed advice to patients, yet a number of studies have shown that, generally, conventionally trained health practitioners consider their knowledge about herbal medicinal products and supplements to be weak. Phytopharmacy fills this knowledge gap, and is intended for use by the busy pharmacist, nurse, or doctor, as well as the ‘expert patient’ and students of pharmacy and herbal medicine. It presents clear, practical and concise monographs on over a hundred popular herbal medicines and plant-based food supplements. Information provided in each monograph includes: • Indications • Summary and appraisal of clinical and pre-clinical evidence • Potential interactions • Contraindications • Possible adverse effects An overview of the current regulatory framework is also outlined, notably the EU Traditional Herbal Medicinal Products Directive. This stipulates that only licensed products or registered traditional herbal medicinal products (THRs), which have assured quality and safety, can now legally be sold OTC. Monographs are included of most of the major herbal ingredients found in THRs, and also some plant-based food supplements, which while not strictly medicines, may also have the potential to exert a physiological effect.
