Paperback. Condizione: New. As people moved into cities and suburbs and embraced modern medicine and industrialised food, they lost their connection to nature, in particular to the plants with which humanity coevolved. These plants are essential components of our physiologies - tangible reminders of cross-kingdom signaling - and key not only to vibrant physical health and prevention of illness, but, also, to soothing and awakening the troubled spirit. Offering examples of ancient and modern uses of wild plants in each of the 3 classes - from aromatic peppermint to bitter dandelion to tonic chocolate - Masé provides easy recipes to integrate them into meals as seasonings and as central ingredients in soups, stocks, salads and grain dishes as well as including formulas for teas, spirits and tinctures. Providing a framework for safe and effective use as well as new insights to enrich the practice of advanced herbalists, he shows how healing "wild plant deficiency syndrome" - that is, adding wild plants back into our diets - is vital not only to our health, but, also, to our spiritual development. Blending traditional herbal medicine with history, mythology, clinical practice and recent findings in physiology and biochemistry, herbalist, Guido Masé, explores the three classes of plants necessary for the healthy functioning of our bodies and minds - aromatics, bitters and tonics. He explains how bitter plants ignite digestion, balance blood sugar, buffer toxicity and improve metabolism; how tonic plants normalise the functions of our cells and nourish the immune system and how aromatic plants relax tense organs, nerves and muscles and stimulate sluggish systems, whether physical, mental, emotional or spiritual. He reveals how wild plants regulate our heart variability rate and adjust the way DNA is read by our cells, controlling the self-destructive tendencies that lead to chronic inflammation or cancer. ·Explains how 3 classes of wild plants - aromatics, bitters and tonics - are uniquely adapted to work with our physiology because we coevolved with them ·Provides simple recipes to easily integrate these plants into meals as well as formulae for teas, spirits and tinctures ·Offers practical examples of plants in each of the 3 classes, from aromatic peppermint to bitter dandelion to tonic chocolate.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Make your own bitters at home to enhance your medicine cabinet, and your bar. Used since the Middle Ages, bitters are made by combining various plant botanicals and/or spices with 100-proof alcohol and letting them sit until the bitter and medicinal qualities have been extracted. Just a small amount of the resulting liquid can then be used to stimulate the digestive system and promote healthy digestion. This is why "apertifs" and "digestifs" are so popular-both then and now!DIY Bitters is a how-to guide that explores the history and health benefits of bitters, and shows you how to make your own bitters at home, to be used alone or in cocktails, tonics, and even main meals. Herbalists Jovial King and Guido Mase, owners of the bitters company Urban Moonshine, teach you how to make recipes that range from Classic Digestive Bitters and "Angostura" Bitters to more innovative bitters like Cacao After-Dinner Mints and Kava-Ginger Pastilles.You can even find a guide for creating your own unique flavors from the plants and ingredients you have on hand. Some of the other recipes include: Angelica Elixir Bitter Ginger Syrup Hazelnut Hearth Bitters Rose Bitter Pastilles Chamomile Bitters Allergy Bitters Immune Bitters Nerve Bitters Sleep Bitters You'll also find profiles for an array of plant ingredients, from Agrimony to Yellow Dock, with all the details necessary to craft a formula that is truly a work of art. Listed alphabetically by common name, each species description covers history and lore, flavor profile, chemistry and extraction, and medicinal activity. Whether enjoyed as an apertif, digestif, or as a remedy to settle an upset stomach, bitters are back!
