Asian Health Secrets - A Practical Guide to Asian Herbal Medicine

Want to take charge of your health naturally? Sit down, relax, and soak up some Asian Health Secrets with Letha Hadady, "the Martha Stewart of herbs." Stroll with her through a Chinese market and see the herbs, teas, and foods that can help common problems from arthritis to high blood pressure, and even aid weight loss and depression safely and gently. Hadady then moves into the kitchen to delve further into the wonders of ginseng, ginger, lemongrass, and many other powerful tonics, showing off their beauty and touting their other sensory delights. Suggestions for working them into your diet and supplement regimen complement the theoretical information about why they work. Maybe it will motivate you to take a few steps away from Western medicine, toward remedies as close as the local grocer. --Rob Lightner
