Southern Folk Medicine - by Phyllis D Light (Paperback)

This book is a comprehensive guide to Southern and Appalachian Folk Medicine, providing a unique blend of history, folklore, assessment methods, and remedies.

Written by one of the system's last active practitioners, Phyllis D.

Light, the book offers an in-depth look at this forgotten system of medicine that has been passed down through generations in the South and Appalachia.

With a focus on the four elements and four tastes, Southern Blood Types, and the cultural and healing traditions that merged to create this system, Light provides a clear and accessible explanation of how to use these natural tools to care for people in their communities.

Whether you're looking to learn about a new approach to herbalism or simply interested in exploring the rich cultural heritage of the South and Appalachia, this book is an essential read.
