Innate Self-Medication by Caroline Ingraham - Paperback

Innate Self-Medication by Caroline Ingraham Innate Self-Medication explores the remarkable ability of animals and humans, to respond individually to the natural compounds found in plants. Caroline Ingraham, a pioneer in applied zoopharmacognosy, draws on more than four decades of observation and practical experience with animals across many species. Through scientific information, detailed plant profiles and compelling case studies, she explains how responses to aroma and taste can offer valuable clues about physical and emotional needs. A substantial reference section examines individual plant extracts, including their properties, traditional uses and scientific foundations. The accompanying real-life accounts show how differently each individual may respond and why careful observation, freedom of choice and appropriate application are central to the Ingraham Method. This is a valuable resource for animal guardians, veterinary professionals, herbalists, behaviourists, aromatherapists and anyone interested in the relationship between plants, animals and human health. Both a practical reference and a thought-provoking exploration, Innate Self-Medication encourages us to observe more closely, question assumptions and develop a deeper respect for individual responses.
