He provides herbal treatments to restore and protect each of the body’s major systems – from the muscles, bones, and digestive system to the pulmonary, cardiovascular, and reproductive organs. He also describes herbal remedies for specific ailments such as prostate enlargement, hot flashes, hypertension, insomnia, bronchitis, varicose veins, and arthritis. Hoffman shows how herbs can help minimize dependence on conventional medical treatments and provide a safe and welcome alternative to the unpleasant and sometimes dangerous side effects of synthetic drugs.

In the book’s material medica, Hoffmann details more than 150 health-promoting herbs, explaining their actions on the body and mind, preparation methods, and recommended dosages.
