- catalog abstract "Earth Medicine, Earth Food is an A-to-Z reference to the plant remedies and wild foods used by the Indians.

You'll learn that: The Catawba Indians treated back pain with a tea of arnica roots; The Iroquois and Mohegans used the boneset weed for colds and fever; The Blackfoot Indians applied a paste of scarlet mallow to burns as a cooling agent; The Menominees cured insomnia with a tea steeped from the leaves of the partridge berry plant and The Onondagas drank pennyroyal tea for headache. Earth Medicine, Earth Food also discusses non-animal food sources consumed by the Indians such as nuts, seeds, berries, and ferns, and examines the relevance of traditional dietary patterns to the way we eat now."--Pub. desc.".
