About this book

Language: Dutch

Botanisch Handboek Medicinale Planten is a beautifully illustrated giftable gardening reference book, which combines exquisite botanical illustrations with practical self-help projects. Every day sees a discovery in the press about the new uses of plants, and it's certain that most of our most important drugs are derived from plants. From willow (used to procure aspirin) to periwinkle (used in chemotherapy to treat lymphoma) many common garden plants have provided cures in modern medicine. In Botanisch Handboek Medicinale Planten readers can discover more than 200 life-saving plants and 25 home-grown remedies to make themselves. Each home cure is described and illustrated with step-by-step photographs to show how you can be a gardener and heal yourself.

Summary in Dutch:
Interessant voor botanici, tuin- en plantenliefhebbers. Dit prachtig geïllustreerde boek beschrijft een keur aan medicinale planten die je aantreft in de natuur en in botanische tuinen, maar ook zelf zou kunnen kweken. Het bevat eenvoudige recepten voor zelfgemaakte thee, olie, tinctuur en crèmes en laat zien hoe je die planten kunt kweken, oogsten en verwerken.

Aansluitend bij een 5000 jaar oude traditie beschrijven de Britse auteurs, experts van de Kew Royal Botanic Gardens, actuele kennis rondom dit boeiende onderwerp. Het gaat veelal om algemene soorten met onvermoede eigenschappen, zoals de wilg (die aspirine produceert) en de kleine maagdenpalm (die chemotherapie bij bepaalde typen kanker ondersteunt).
- 277 geneeskrachtige planten en 24 recepten
- Met fraaie illustraties van de planten en foto’s bij de recepten
- Voor botanici, tuin- en plantenliefhebbers
