Publisher's note

"A fascinating book by a distinguished Vermont physician."NEW YORK DAILY NEWSFor centuries the vigorous and healthy families of Vermont have passed down simple commonsense home remedies for all sorts of common aches and pains, from one generation to the next. Dr. Jarvis spent years practicing medicine in the Green Mountains and observed the natural wonders of Vermont folk medicine. He shares that wisdom in this helpful book in order to help you: burn body fat and decrease body weight, improve sleep and overcome chronic fatigue, reduce high blood pressure, and much more.

Annotation

Dr. D.C. Jarvis, who was born in 1891, wrote this charming and informative book to preserve the unique folk wisdom he learned as a young doctor in the rural South. In FOLK MEDICINE, Dr. Jarvis discusses the varied uses of natural substances such as honey, kelp, and apple cider vinegar for a variety of healing purposes. Burning body fat, overcoming chronic fatigue and reducing high blood pressure are all possible without prescription drugs or over-the-counter medications. After spending years practicing medicine in the Green Mountains of Vermont, Dr. Jarvis came to the conclusion that the hearty and vigorous local families owe their healthy abundance to the natural wonders of folk medicine--and he began to work on this book. In addition to the remedies he's compiled, Dr. Jarvis includes dozens of appealing stories about rural life and humorous anecdotes of his experiences as a country doctor. While the medical advice is solid and reputable, FOLK MEDICINE is perhaps best enjoyed as a quaint reminder of a simpler time.
