Do Amish people know something that doctors don't? -- Reveals Amish home remedies using foods, herbs and vitamins. -- Folk medicine for common health problems such as allergies, arthritis pain, colds, and many more. -- An encyclopedia of natural health secrets. Learn the health secrets that keep the Amish people so healthy and robust, well into their senior years. An extraordinary encyclopedia of Amish natural health remedies for many common health problems. Organized by malady, these home remedies use simple items found in your home, such as vinegar, salt, soda, onions and even olive oil, to speed healing and reduce suffering. I am impressed by the research Dr. Quillin has conducted to gather this book. My personal projection on the direction of the healing arts is that we will eventually weave together the best of modern science with the best of ancient cures. Together they will form a hybrid method of clinically effective and cost-effective means of treating diseases. This book represents a milestone in that pursuit. -- Dr. A. Gordon Reynolds, Co-Author The La Costa Book of Nutrition
