Review of Rainforest Remedies: 100 Healing Herbs of Belize (Paperback)

Being a student of rainforest medicinal plants myself, I found this book one of the best, published or unpublished, to-date. The drawings are excellent, making field identification easy. The presentation of both thecommon and scientific names of plants is invaluable. I found it interestingthat the Carribean people of Belize and the Carribean people of Costa Rica(where I am) use the same names and uses for many of the medicinal plants.This book is a wealth ofinformation for such a small price, not tomention, motivation for further inquiry. Thank You!

Review of Rainforest Home Remedies: The Maya Way To Heal Your Body and Replenish Your Soul (Paperback)

This book has remedies for any ailment a woman could encounter.From wrinkles to cramps to irritable husbands.There's a great section on massage for children to fix anything from nail biting to colic.It also seems there is a tea recipie for anything you could ever suffer from.
My personal testamony:I have suffered from chronic menstral cramps for the past 5 years and no doctor could find the cause of the problem.This book helped me realize that my uterus is tilted back due to years of dacing and running on concrete.By massaging my abdomen using the arvigo method taught in this book, for 2-3 minutes a day, I'm able to control the cramping without drugs.You don't know how amazing that feels!
I'm not very experienced in natural healing, and I must admit it was a little overwhelming at first, but now I feel very confident in the subject.
This would make the perfect gift to anyone with or preparing to have children.
