Many of the health recommendations floating around cyberspace (or mentioned around the water cooler, for that matter) are recognized by the science-based medical community as worthless at best and harmful quackery at worst. However, the Mayo Clinic is publishing a book called The Mayo Clinic Book of Home Remedies: What to Do for the Most Common Health Problems.
Harriet Hall in the Science-Based Medicine blog has written a favorable report regarding this publication.
This blogger recommends consideration of this as a reference book to keep in the home to use prior to consulting a medical professional for non-emergency problems. It is available as a pre-order from Amazon.com.
