" If you thought gardening was just an excuse to commune with nature or a way to avoid high prices
and poor quality produce at the supermarket, The Healing Garden will change your focus.

Your garden can be more than a retreat, more than a delight to eye and taste buds.
Your garden can be your pharmacy, too.
And The Healing Garden can show you how.

Gardening is a healthful activity that can have an even more positive impact on your health
when you grow foods and herbs to help prevent or treat certain conditions and illnesses.
There is concrete scientific evidence that plants you grow in your garden can fight diseases
such as cancer, heart disease, arthritis, and high blood pressure.
And they can also help treat those illnesses and an abundance of other conditions, including
depression, digestive problems, and sore muscles.

If you suffer from migrane headaches, grow a patch of feverfew.
Its leaves are clinically proven to protect against those killer headaches
and lessen their severity when they do occur.
Need to increase your intake of calcium ?
Grow some kale, a wonderful source of absorbable calcium (as well as betacarotene).
Burn your finger ?
You'll get instant relief and heal faster by using the sap from an aloe leaf.

The Healing Garden profiles 22 of the most nutritious and therapeutic foods
and food groups as well as 44 healing herbs.
Each profile explains the plant's healing properties and how to grow,
harvest, store, and prepare it.
The book also profiles 32 medical conditions that your garden can help you conquer.
Following a brief description of the causes and symptoms, you'll find information about
the foods and herbs that can help and why.
Recipes for making healing products from your garden are also included. "

" The Healing Garden will also take you through the basics of preparing
and growing a healing garden.
Soil preparation, fertilizer, mulch, companion planting, and more are covered in
the gardening chapter.

grow plants that will improve your health.
Let The Healing Garden help you begin. "
