Great information and easy to understand

HUGE addition to my herbalism library!
This book is amazing! Full of great recipes, and so much information on each herb’s essential oil properties. Finding information on herbal/medicinal uses, vs aromatherapy, which is everywhere, can be tough, but this book is full of herbal/medicinal information.

Perfect reference for Essential oils.
I have been interested in essential oils for a while now, but I never really did any research or reading on them. I even have a couple bottles that were given to me sitting on my dresser, but really I had no idea how to use them, and that I would need a carrier oil for most of them. Essential oils seem to be on trend right now in the U.S. But I never really was sure if they were for more than aromatherapy. This book gives you all the information you need to learn and start using essential oils for your health. I love how the author starts with the simple essentials, explaining what essential oils are, and ways they are used. The author goes on to explain how the oils are collected and why they are so powerful. Essential oils are natural oils in the plants that are removed and purified for use. Many health issues can improve or even heal completely by using essential oils instead of turning to modern chemicals in drugs. The book goes into detail listing the essential oils, what they can provide and how they are used. It also includes how to choose your essential oils and how to choose a carrier oil. With recipes for massage oils, and great ideas for mixing your own shampoo, soap, and massage oils, this book becomes a perfect reference for anyone interested in essential oils. Later in the book there are lists of medical issues and how to treat them with essential oils. I am hoping to try some of these soon. The last thing this book goes into are references. It talks about the most popular and the best places to get your essential oils. I have yet to pick a company I desire to get my first essential oils from, but using this book I have a much greater understanding of what essential oils are, how to use them, and how to store them and mix my own oils for my tastes. Truly this book is just a perfect reference. It teaches the basics, as well as what to watch for when buying oils. It really is the best reference for using essential oils for natural remedies.

Great book for Beginners. But could have been better with more info on Ingestion of EO
Tuesday, July 19, 2016Review: Essential Oils Natural Remedies: The Complete A-Z Reference of Essential Oils for Health and Healing by Althea Press4 stars for Essential Oils Natural Remedies: The Complete A-Z Reference of Essential Oils for Health and Healing by Althea Press.A friend introduces me into the world of Young Living (YL) 100% pure essential oil somewhere last October. Though I attended their talk and tried out one of their oils, my interest isn’t fully piqued until beginning of this year when I purchase more of their oils and find myself loving them more and more. Five months later, I decide to take the plunge and join as a YL member.Though a YL member and equipped with an Essential Oils pocket reference book by Life Science Publishing (compliments of my friend), I find myself hungry for more information from other guidebooks written or research done with no reference whatsoever to YL. The thing is, I want a clear and unbiased view on the uses, applications and powers of nature’s remedies without the influence of any one particular brand.With the above in mind, I proceed to do my share of research and readings online. It is then that I realise that the more I read, the more confused I get. A good example is on the topic of ingesting essential oils. While some are strong advocates when it comes to ingesting the so-called therapeutic grade essential oils, others clearly warn against doing so. In the end, I find myself researching on books to buy instead and that is how I land up with not one but two essential oil reference books; this being one of them.Having read this A-Z reference on essential oils, below is my take on this guidebook:-Pros(1) Pleasing layout with coloured chapters.(2) Easy to use and navigate.(3) Clear and concise explanations on uses and application methods, blending and precautions.(4) Covers 168 common ailments with suggested homemade remedies.(5) Includes profiles of 75 essential oils.(6)Provides reviews on 10 most popular essential oils brands and their products.(7) While the book does not recommend ingestion of essential oils, it does not condemn doing so; instead it encourages readers to do proper research prior to using essential oils internally.Cons(1) Non-exhaustive coverage on the profiles of essential oils. To name a few, Cistus, Wintergreen and Palo Santo are not mentioned in the book.(2) No information on ingestion of essential oils. Taken verbatim from the book “While this book does not recommend ingesting essential oils, after proper research, you may decide it is right for you.” In my opinion, the book is plainly taking the easy way out by putting this huge disclaimer out there. To that end, it defeats my purpose of buying this guidebook because the very act of purchasing this book is the result of having conducted this so-called proper research.(3) Not much information is provided on the 10 popular essential oils brands and their products except awareness of the brand name itself.All in all, I am pleased with the wide coverage of ailments and recipes offered for natural remedies. However, this book can have done better by providing more information with regard to ingesting essential oils.

Great Value for Money
Was not expecting this book to be so thick . Probably weighs about 3 pounds. Its a great book for beginners and just a wonderful book for anyone interested in essential oils and alternative care ideas. Over 400 pages of Tips, formulations and types of oils and how best to use.Bought this for $13 in oct 2023 and i can say this is probably the best value for money i received this year. Will probably have and use this book for the next 50 years. Is a great book to use in the home and to pass onto the next generation
