Book description
Granny always has just the thing for a nasty cold or a grazed knee. Her
pantry is not only packed with tasty treats for hungry grandchildren,
but also just the right ingredient to soothe an angry rash or calm an
upset tummy. Expensive medicines can do the trick, but often we use them
once or twice and then they stay at the back of a cupboard, gathering
dust. Granny's Natural Remedies is a treasure trove of effective
alternative treatments for everything from bee stings to burns and
headaches to hiccups, using only the contents of the average kitchen or
garden. If you don't know your aloe from your elbow, follow Granny's
advice and discover the wonderful healing properties of everyday
ingredients such as nutmeg, honey and garlic, and learn how to take care
of your family using safe and cost-effective traditional cures … just
like Granny. Brenda Evans is a keen cook, herbalist, author and
devoted grandmother who lives in a small country cottage in East Sussex.
When she is not cooking, or writing about cooking, she enjoys spending
time tending her enormous vegetable patch and walking her two pet
Chihuahuas on the nearby South Downs.
