He came from a Swiss family where the secrets of herbalism were known and from early childhood he was eager to learn about the heailing power of indigenous plants. By researching numerous volumes on folk medicine, conduting trials on his own body and observing the effects of plant-based remedies on his patients he made ground-breaking discoveries which he shared in a monthly periodical and then in this pioneering reference guide. The Nature Doctor has become a valued publication even amongst conventional medical doctors and scientists and the new British edition of the worldwide bestseller, now fully revised and updated, comes complete with comprehensive appendices, offering the reader east access to a wealth of information from the father of natural healing.

Ever since I found this book, I’ve discovered so many natural cures and reliable remedies that have helped me in so many ways. I’m not always a fan of self-help/health books, but this one is a favorite.
There are treatments for multiple conditions including wounds, burns, colds, diseases, and many other ailments. There are diet recommendations for prevention which teaches us how we can keep ourselves clean and free from disease before it strikes. Prevention is better than cure! It contains multiple sections of information on how to care for our bodies from our hair to our feet and stay connected to the earth. One of my favorite paragraphs in the book discusses walking barefoot.
Walking barefoot is increasingly becoming a thing of the past. In fact, nowadays many people associate it with poverty or excentricity — they look down on it. Just try it and dare to go for a long walk without your shoes and watch how many glances of surprise, pity, and even contempt you will attract. What does this indicate? That the onlookers have all but forgotten or never learned the benefits of walking. They know nothing of the peculiar, mysterious power it can convey, or else they would not react the way they do. If you go for an early morning walk on dewy grass you will soon notice that going barefoot makes you feel really good, generating new strength when you have been feeling tired and worn out. It is like recharging one’s batteries, so to speak, recharging your run-down nerves with energy. It seems as if Mother Earth is giving off energy that improves glandular functions. This is why I consider it rather strange that, although overtired and worn-out, we do not take full advantage of this simple regenerative treatment, which is able to stimulate our endocrine glands to increase their activity.
I noticed that only a few of the actual medicines may be out of date, but most of the book offers a plethora of natural medicine treatments from plants (herbs, fruits, and vegetables). It answers simple questions about calcium, what type of rice to eat, and even cancer causes and what to do about it. There’s so much we can control by just eating the right foods that are available to us and The Nature Doctor reminds us that everything we need to stay healthy is right here on Earth and within our grasp! Readers will also be inspired by simple measures such as taking a brisk walk outside and breathing in deeply.
I recommend this book for anyone who has an interest in natural medicine, wants to stay healthy, or who are suffering from sickness, common ailments, or disease.
