Description
Restoring the use of wild plants in daily life for vibrant physical, mental, and spiritual health is a key to overall well-being. Guido Masé explores how three classes of wild plants - aromatic, bitter, and tonic - work with our physiology because we coevolved with them. These plants are essential components of our physiologies, offering tangible reminders of cross-kingdom signaling and key to vibrant physical health and prevention of illness. Masé explains how bitter plants ignite digestion, balance blood sugar, buffer toxicity, and improve metabolism, while tonic plants normalize cell functions and nourish the immune system. Aromatic plants, meanwhile, relax tense organs, nerves, and muscles and stimulate sluggish systems. By blending traditional herbal medicine with history, mythology, clinical practice, and recent findings in physiology and biochemistry, Masé reveals the unique roles of each plant class and how they can be easily integrated into daily life through simple recipes and formulas.
