I love the lay out, I love how it is written, the style and lay out. It has so much information and helpufl recipes with in it. Def. reccommend.

I have been incorporating herbal remedies over the last year or so. This book is perfect for those just starting out. The recipes are easy to follow and detailed. I highly recommend this book to others and will buy more from the author.

As an herbalist and holistic health advocate, I really like this book! It has fantastic recipes on herbal medicine, natural health, wellness, self-care and holistic healing. The layout is extremely clear, so you can find a recipe for your ailment quickly and easily. I'd prefer if there was a bit more depth of info on each recipe, but there is a larger quantity of remedies instead. This book empowers you to care for yourself and loved ones using natural, plant-based remedies. I make a lot of natural health supplement capsules, so I love that there are plenty of recipes here for them, as well as many other forms of natural medicine, including: tinctures, tisanes, flower essence blends, aromatherapy blends, suppositories, fomentations, syrups, massage oils, poultices, lozenges, and more.Master Recipes is great for beginner healers and more advanced herbalists and naturopaths as well. It has an overview of important herbs to have on hand, as well as basic formulation methods. There is something for everyone here, with recipes for treating and preventing a very wide array of health concerns, from the everyday to the chronic. It's informative, easy to understand, and full of useful homemade remedies and anecdotes. JJ Pursell never disappoints with her knowledge, research and writing. This herbal recipe book is fantastic!(I'm disappointed that the book costs $4 less now than it did last month. I should've just waited instead of jumping to purchase it brand new.)

Master Recipes from the Herbal Apothecary: 375 Tinctures, Salves, Teas, Capsules, Oil and Washes for Whole-Body Health and Wellness by Jj Pursell is an in-depth reference book for those who would like to create their own herbal or natural remedies. The book contains “master recipes” (think of them as templates) for the different types of products (tinctures, salves, teas, capsules, oils, washes, etc.) and then moves on to more specific recipes for addressing certain conditions or issues. There are also profiles of frequently used medicinal herbs, as well as beautiful photographs (which are helpful especially for the master recipes). The author is a board-certified naturopathic physician and her expertise shines through.Rating: 4/5 StarsRecommendation: I bought this book to supplement what I had learned in my first book from Rosemary Gladstar, Medicinal Herbs (which is the book I would definitely start with). This book though contains more detailed information on how to make the bases (the master recipes), which I found valuable as a beginner. Also, the fact the author is a board-certified naturopathic physician lends credibility to her work, which I was otherwise unfamiliar with. The recipes are accessible for even a beginner and the well-organized structure of the book makes it easy to find what you need. I highly recommend for anyone looking to make their own herbal products, especially if you are beginner or intermediate.

Love all the recipes in this book

If you like to make tincture salves and essential oils this is the book for you I did the research. Awesome

Loaded with great info! I've learned lots and used many of the recipes!
