About the Book
Home remedies and treatment of diseases by domestic plants have been prevalent since the time immemorial in India. The knowledge about the miraculous curing properties of plants is limited to certain people and is passed from one generation to another.

In the present book, the authors describe medicinal uses of 59 plants, which are used in daily life in the kitchen of Indian homes. Botanical names, vernacular names, identification, distribution and medicinal uses of each plant have been given.

This book gives some alternate ways of controlling caroches, insomnia, minor burns, coughs, eczema, sore throats etc.
