From a leading authority on herbal remedies, a practical guide to optimal health through the power of herbs--with an emphasis on the special needs of women over 40 Centuries before estrogen supplements, collagen shots, and Prozac, women cultivated and gathered plants for their healing and energizing properties. An accomplished herbalist and prolific health writer, Laurel Vukovic brings these time-proven treatments into the new millennium.

Every herbal remedy is easy to make, gentle to take, completely safe, affordable, and amazingly effective.
