Description
This spring is published by Éditions Colloïdales 40 Medicinal plants for the family pharmacy, Diane Mackay's first book in which she discusses 40 medicinal plants that are easy to grow, process and use, 12 of which are well-known aromatic plants such as basil, oregano, rosemary and thyme. It presents them in six sections: history, botany, gardening, uses, in cooking (when applicable) and precautions. The book is designed as a practical guide to growing, harvesting and processing 40 simple plants that cure most common health problems. An essential book for building robust and natural health, the guarantee of a healthy, free and rewarding life.
Diane Mackay lives with her partner Yves Gagnon in Saint-Didace where they created Les Jardins du Grand-Portage. It was there that she was introduced to traditional herbalism, exploring the vast healing potential of medicinal plants. She cultivates around a hundred species, half of which she transforms into dried herbs, liquid extracts, oils and ointments. For thirty years, she has been treating members of her entourage with products of her own making who have seen their prodigious effectiveness. She delivers training and gives conferences on the subject.
