Herbs have been with us since the Beginning of Time. For thousands of years Man has used herbs in one form or another to treat pain and illness. From the Chinese's life-prolonging use of ginseng to the Roman Empire's anesthetic applications of mandrake, herbs have been used throughout history to put the body in tune with nature. With over 3000 different medicinal herbs growing in nature, most folks (and some herbalists as well) rely on a good reference guide when picking their herbs. HERBLIST is a compilation of many books, comprehensive listings, and indexes by well-known herbalists and authors. It's packed with information on the preparation of herbal teas (tisanes) and tonics, botanical and pharmacology terms, human afflictions and the herbs that will aid in the healing process, and a complete listing of the genus, species, and AKA (also known as) names for over 3000 common herbs. With a database containing over 1 meg of data (before compression), you'll want to use the HERBLIST's quick-search feature to find the herbs that are right for you. Picking the right herbs has never been so easy!
