SPECIFIC INDICATIONS FOR HERBS IN GENERAL USE
Michael Moore

Copyright 1994 by Michael Moore. Use it, share it, just don't sell it
or change it in any way (unless you get my permission)

If the therapist or physician is going to be able to make sensible choices in
using herbs in a practice, there has to be available to them an accessible
body of applicable information, sensible guidelines, and doses that are safe.
This book organizes the uses of botanical medicines in a fashion similar to
the old Eclectic Physicians of the turn of the century;

"If you have a good herbal preparation, what are the BEST applications for
it?". That is the crux of SPECIFIC INDICATIONS as a working model. All the
doses and preparations are listed in my "Herbal Materia Medica", their use in
differential therapeutics is outlined in my "Herbal Repertory in Clinical
Practice", specific indications for tincture/preferred herbs are outlined in
"Herbal Tinctures in Clinical Practice", how to find, gather and use some of
them are dealt with in my three field manuals, but this is another way of
viewing the useful information.

Every medicinal plant has a variety of effects and applications; if you wish
to exhaust a plants potential, there may be DOZENS of uses that it can be put
to. This is a catalog of MY opinions of the best applications for each herb.
I would like to thank Halsey Brant and Cecil Roach for helping in the
organization of this information.
