This book is absolutely stunning. The illustrations on the pages are bright and beautiful. It is literally a complete guide. It goes through what types of jars and containers to use and where to source your products. It separates the recipes by ailment so it's easy to quickly find what you need. I would highly recommend this for any healer!

So informative! 288 pages. Print is large enough to easily read. Pages do not stick together, making it easy to turn the pages. Nice pictures. Recipes, clear instructions and dosage.

I have absolutely loved this book and knew what I was getting and still was absolutely flourished one receiving it to know that it really is such an incredible book of knowledge at your hands. It’s broke down in a way that makes it so easy to understand not only the apothecary remedies but it also breaks down and explains the author disclaimers table content even setting up your own herbal apothecary! It’s very easy to read. Find what you’re looking for in the breakdown of the benefits or what it does features ingredients instructions etc. Definitely one of my favorite herbal books I’ve received recently.

Based on the reviews I was tempted not to buy this. People complained that there weren't any dosages or directions, that is not true at all. This book shows you how to address all health concerns and parts of the body with natural remedies, as well as make these remedies in the forms of syrups, tinctures, creams and a bunch of other ways that I haven't heard of like oxymels. It tells you how and how much to use for certain ailments and gives information about herbs that are used. It teaches you to make sure to identify your herbs before you use them, this is very important so you don't die. If you want to take control of your health, prevent health issues and protect the health of your family, get this book. I've already made several remedies from this book with homegrown herbs that I had a surplus of and didn't know what to do with. Excellent way to use all of what you grow and you'll have plenty to give away or sell to others.

This doesn't have 250 remedies. My copy starts at 48 then goes to 267, but missing remedies sporadically. Like where is #59? #86 #97? #127 etc... I thing "250" is a scam. But the remedies that ARE included seem to work well and have been incorporated in our daily life.

Forgotten Home Apothecary is truly one of the most valuable books I’ve added to my collection. Nicole Apelian has done an incredible job compiling 250 powerful, practical, and easy-to-follow remedies that make natural wellness feel approachable and empowering.
What I love most is how clearly everything is explained — from identifying herbs, to preparing tinctures, teas, salves, and more. Each remedy feels doable, even for beginners,(which i am) and the book is laid out in such a way that I can quickly find exactly what I need whether it’s for immune support, skin issues, or everyday wellness.
The best part? The recipes I’ve tried really work! The rosemary hair growth remedy has given my hair noticeable strength and fullness, and the slim tummy capsules have been such a helpful addition to my routine. It’s amazing to be able to make these things myself and actually see results.
The author is very knowledgeable, like having a trusted herbalist guiding you through every step. I also appreciate how she ties the remedies to both traditional wisdom and modern uses, giving me confidence in actually putting them into practice .
This book is worth every penny. i absolutely recommend it.

Beautiful resource for holistic treatment of a variety of ailments and every day imbalances. The only thing I see as an issue is some of the uncommon ingredients required for some recipes. There’s ingredients could be difficult to find until you locate a quality vendor.

Very informative and gives very clear definitions, instructions, and reasoning regarding the recipes. It is very well organized and there is a recipe for pretty much anything you can think of from gut health to fertility boosting tonics. However I have not tried any of the recipes yet because a lot of the ingredients arn’t super accessible. The simple recipes for cold and flu symptoms and blood pressure have accessible ingredients but the more complicated ones are a different story. I would say it is about 50/50 this may affect people differently depending on various factors. For me personally, I found it a little disheartening considering the book advertises these things being “at your fingertips” when you couldn’t find a lot of these ingredients at a local store.

Very quick at responding to any problem you have for an example…I received mine that got damaged from delivery. They replaced my book for free.
Customer service is very friendly and they were very quick to get my replacement book back to me. This is a definite must have for everyone, but it’s for colds diabetics, high blood pressure. They have it all and very easy to read and understand.

I absolutely love this book! Being able to access so much valuable information in one book Has saved me so much research time. This book has given me a wonderful guide for further research.
I was diagnosed with lupus in 2000. Had two strokes and hundreds of Lupus Flares!
I began doing research and experimenting with herbs starting in 2015.
However This book aided me with my healthier life style. It’s taken my journey up a thousand notches.
I have had this book for a few years, YES before it became popular on social media.
I purchased due to my diagnosis as well as my daughters diagnosis.
My daughter was diagnosed with Sacral osteosarcoma! At the age of 15. We Even traveled to Mayo for help… Mayo Dr’s wanted to do a two day million dollar surgery.
She declined. At 16.
She’s now 21. 4 years later she’s in remission.
NO SURGERY !!!
Yes we are still using herbal supplements
I’m elated that so many are interested in healing their bodies with herbs!
This book WORTH EVERY dime!
This book is needed in every home.
