The Kitchen Table Book: 1,427 Kitchen Cures and Pantry Potions for Just About Every Health and Household Problem

I really like this book. It is filled with every day household items being used in unique ways. Prices for every thing seem so high these days, I thought I would try the book and save a few dollars. The section for the use of honey has some excellent suggestions and the ones used were successful. This section is not for children, only adults. I have rosacea and found from the book that oatmeal is a natural treatment. I feel I will save the price of the book many times over and in the process use safer and less harsh ingredients.

This book has so many interesting and informative uses for household/natural items to help you. It is just too bad that anything natural seems to need a disclaimer because it is not a medically approved cure (FDA). Chemicals were not meant to cure anything. The author lists studies done by Big Pharma to indicate why a natural method may not work. Personally I wish we could all use what we have instead of spending a fortune on medical items which all have the potential for horrendous side effects. My personal favorite side effects are constipation, diarrhea, and death. I am not thrilled with any of them!! This book has many wonderful ideas for you and your family. If you leave it on a table, your guests will want to read it.

I found their comments helpful , and straight forward. Some of them we had heard in the past but forgotten, others are new, and I don't know if all will work , but they could save us money. Like cleaning the toilet bowl with vinegar, but yogurt for a facial. Several interesting pages, will they all work I doubt it, but it is interesting reading.

I love this book! It's chock full of interesting tidbits about diet, health, exercise, food, plants, spices, herbs and lots of pages have handy tips about cleaning etc. Once I sat down to read it one hour had passed. It's hard to put down! I discovered that there's so much information in the book that if you want to remember some of the tips you've read, it's best to have pen and paper handy to jot down things like what vitamins are good for this or that!

Just a quick note about this book, 'The Kitchen Table Book'. I'm one who grew up with a grandmother, that was raised in the country and in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Dr's were either not available or came at a premium. Hence, a lot of 'cures' came from home remedies and basic nutrition. This book shows in detail the benefits from the foods and spices we normally consume. It fits very well with what my grandmother was raised with and what she imparted to us along the way. It is the kind of book that should be on every kitchen table and followed as to daily nutrition. By utilizing the knowledge found in these pages, one should be able to reduce the need for doctor visits, with the exception of catastrophic events. By understanding the health benefits for the various foods, most people should be able to maintain good health without the use of supplements and multiple, doctor-prescribed medications. This book is a great guide towards that goal.

Some things CS are good to try I this book, but unfortunately it will fool the gullible. I bought this for my mother-in-law because she asked for it. I’m not sure it’s a good book for someone who believes everything she reads.

excellent

This book will stay on my kitchen table permanently because I've been discovering so much good information inside its pages. I especially like reading about herbal remedies for various conditions, but there are many more topics to discover, all easy to read. Highly recommended.

an excellent publication for the purpose intended. would recommend it to any chef
