If you know my history, you know that when the fine people behind the Parent Bloggers Network asked me to review The 24 Hour Pharmacist, I was all over that bad boy. Come to find out it really isn't a 24-hour free-for-all pharmacy, but an awesome replacement!
Seeing as I once thought a pill could cure all ills, I am now living in a world where I am more careful, more responsible, and definitely up for anything that is a natural remedy for what ails you. Enter the wonderful Suzy Cohen and her book The 24 Hour Pharmacist. And it is so well written! No, really! I laughed. I laughed while reading a book about HEALTH issues. About someone saying pills are not the answer. (I usually only meet them in meetings.) But Suzy wrote with humor and fun! Not so common when talking health and such. Take the way she breaks down the book into these sections: Above the Waist, Above the Neck, Below the Waist, and Everything In Between. Not to mention, Think Outside the Pill.
She had me at her chapter on Overcoming Fatigue. (Sadly, the answer was not more coffee, but she did have answers! That made sense!) She kept me at A Nation of Insomniacs. I think I proposed at Surge Protection for your Hot Flashes. All of these chapters have not only natural solutions, but practical advice that anyone can take.
This book is truly a one of a kind resource when it comes to health and wellness. With humor, candor and a an unflinchingly upfront approach to health, Suzy Cohen gives us a book that is better than any Google search could ever give you, (And with more wit!)
This is one book that every home should have. Really. Don't believe me? Buy it for yourself and you will thank me. I will send you my address so you can send me your letters of adoration.
