Book Description1918. In the course of his work, the writer comes in contact with a large number of people who are interested in botany as a recreation and a change from their regular work. It is noteworthy with such students that interest in a plant is considerably quickened when it can be shown that the plant in question possesses either medicinal or poisonous properties. In answer to this need, the writer compiled this book which imparts useful information and at the same time emphasizes the paramountimportance of scientific training.

Book DescriptionPrevent disease. Stay healthy. Improve well-being. Look younger. Contrary to popular belief, the road to wellness depends not on avoiding saturated fat and cholesterol. Health comes from constant attention to diet and lifestyle, constantly avoiding food and substances that can cause damage to our body and our cells. By the time disease has occurred, it is already late, even though much can still be done to achieve some degree of wellness. The tragedy is to subscribe to falsebeliefs constantly bombarded via endless propaganda by people and institutions with vested interest whose bottom line is profit and money.
