In times past, every Southern home had a closet or cupboard for herbs and other healing remedies. This herbal medicine chest held the essential remedies a family might need to address common, and often acute, health problems such as colds or flu, the aches and pains associated with overwork or arthritis, diarrhea, constipation, women’s health issues, childhood illnesses, digestive disorders, and cuts, bruises and insects bites.

While we still need these acute remedies, in today’s world, we may also need remedies to address chronic health issues such as fibromyalgia, diabetes, chronic digestive complaints and chronic fatigue, to name a few.

Join Phyllis D. Light, Herbalist on Saturday, December 7 from 12:00 – 4:00 p.m. at Nutrition World as she discusses building Your Home Medicine Chest. The class will cover the basic herbs, essential oils, and supplements that can be used in a wide variety of health situations.

The class will also be peppered with bits of Southern Folk Medicine history. Sure to be fun and informative!
