Give a Meaningful Present This Holiday-A Gift of Good Health

Books from The People's Pharmacy provide critical information on how to maintain your good health. What better gift for the holidays?

Many of the presents that people give to friends and loved ones only get used occasionally, if at all. That’s why we are offering information that will be used almost daily and will last for years. Is there any better gift than good health?

If you are a People’s Pharmacy fan, you have learned about practical and affordable remedies that are fun to read about and surprisingly effective. Whether it’s black pepper for a household cut, soy sauce for a kitchen burn, mustard for nighttime leg cramps or gin-soaked raisins for the pain of arthritis, you can rely on us to provide entertaining and useful good health tips.

Good Health Home Remedies:

Why not share this kind of information with those you care about? Some of your friends and loved ones probably deal with ailments like arthritis, allergies, diabetes, digestive upset, high blood pressure, hypothyroidism, insomnia, leg cramps or high cholesterol. Our books provide helpful information about these and dozens of other common conditions.

In some cases, a medication is essential and that is why we rate a range of pharmaceuticals for their pros and cons in Best Choices. But we also provide non-drug alternatives for many maladies. It is possible to lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels with a number of these approaches.

For example, Laura’s doctor scared her when lab tests showed an LDL cholesterol of 155. He was ready to prescribe a statin. Instead, she eliminated refined carbohydrates, ate a high-protein breakfast, added soluble fiber to her diet, focused on fish instead of meat, drank green tea, consumed antioxidants and substituted olive oil for other fats. She then shared her success:

“My LDL cholesterol not only went down 44 points in 5 weeks, it also continued on its downward course.”

Laura provides far greater details about her dietary success in the Appendix of Best Choices: “How I Lowered My LDL Cholesterol 44 Points in 5 Weeks Without Drugs.”

We have Holiday Gift Bundles for almost everyone on your list. The Holiday Book Bundle includes our three most popular books, The People’s Pharmacy Quick & Handy Home Remedies, Best Choices from The People’s Pharmacy and Recipes & Remedies from The People’s Pharmacy. The Book Bundle will save you $18.85 off the regular retail cost of these three books, a 32% savings.

Here is what Kay in Laredo, Texas has to say about this Holiday Book Bundle:

“I am ordering 4 of the Holiday Book Bundles for grandchildren and a daughter. I have all of these books, plus other publications, and I use them so often. I highly recommend them; they are priceless, especially if you don’t want to become addicted to Big Pharma’s chemicals.”

Lou in San Antonio offered this opinion:

“As a long time reader of The People’s Pharmacy in my local newspaper and online, and having tried some of the suggestions, I ordered the 2 books just to see if anything new and interesting was available that I hadn’t read on the website before. Like my daily newspaper, nothing beats printed matter for information. Yes, the internet is quicker, but I just enjoy printed matter suited to my interests. I skimmed the first few pages for information, and found many I hadn’t read before.”
