Abstract/Description
LMH official dictionary of Jamaican herbs & medicinal plants and their uses
Notes
Perhaps you never knew that rosemary and cayenne pepper both raise your blood pressure, but that tea made with watermelon seeds can reduce it again? We cannot all be herbalists, can we?
Maybe we could, if every country followed this feisty little example, from Jamaica, of producing a pocket dictionary of its herbs and medicinal plants. A guide to healthy living, it lists herbs from A to Z, with their nutritional use and the ailments they can treat. The companion volume on Caribbean herbs, wider in scope, is a worthy complement.
Both books are aimed at consumers, but they will also give the farmer and the backyard producer a good idea of what the market wants.
