About

Learning herbal or other natural medicine modalities can feel overwhelming when you realize how much you need to remember about each individual plant.

This is the problem that the Quick Reference Data Sheet was designed to solve.

Using the Quick Reference Data Sheet format developed to bridge the gap between pharmaceutical and natural approaches to health will streamline your experience.

What is a Quick Reference Data Sheet (QRDS)?

These break down the information into 6 sections;

The Latin name.
The biologically active constituents that are not ubiquitous. For example, water and carbon are excluded because they can be found in every fresh herb.
The properties under their technical names.
Basic uses, divided by usage type, eg topical vs ingestion. Not an exhaustive list.
Cautions including drug interactions and other safety info.
And any immediate first aid information that may be needed.
With 163 individual QRDS profiles, this is an excellent reference book for laypeople. Careful research using a government database, studies, and textbooks such as Robert Tisserand's book "Essential Oil Safety" was undertaken to ensure the most accurate and complete information would be given.
This book has been written as a way of meeting the desire to create a database of all the QRDS for anyone to access essential information on natural medicinal substances.
The compendium puts all of the current Quick Reference Data Sheets into one easy reference text. The book DOES NOT CONTAIN INSTRUCTIONS like the other books in the series (past, present, or future).

Most useful for people seeking natural health options, anyone trying to avoid miscarriages or other unfortunate accidents, and writers.

The ebook will be updated as new batches of QRDS are developed.
