The first guide to the ancient traditions of Russian herbal
medicine and their extensive medicinal applications today.
Drawing on a wealth of oral and written traditions, the authors
examine the best-known Russian herbs (all of which are widely
available in North America and Western Europe) and explain their
folkways, properties, and uses. Offering time-tested advice for
using herbs to maintain general well-being, they also give clear
and simple recipes for treating specific health problems from
asthma and migraines to influenza and high blood pressure. Blessed
with a wide variety of climates, geography, and flora, early
Russians developed a rich folk tradition of herbal healing that
ranks among the most sophisticated in the world. Nearly every
Russian medical school offers courses of study on the knowledge and
application of herbs, and many maintain a special research
department that investigates the properties and practical modern
applications of herbal medicine.
This is the first book to examine the traditions of Russian
herbal medicine.
