Excerpt As one of the non-fiction genre's most successful authors, Stacey Chillemi enjoys an ever-expanding and tremendously loyal following. Her books regularly appear on Amazon's best-seller lists and have sold more than 50,000 copies. Chillemi's most recent original paperback, The Complete Herbal Guide: Heal Your Body Naturally and Maintain Optimal Health Using Alternative Medicine, Herbals, Vitamins, Fruits and Vegetables (December 2012) debuted at # 1 on Amazon's best-seller list and has been rated five stars from numerous readers who purchased the book. Chillemi's first published book, Epilepsy You're Not Alone in 1998, helped millions of people understand and cope with their disorder enabling them to live a happy, healthy and productive life. Since that time, Chillemi has published numerous non-fiction and fiction books including The Complete Herbal Guide: A Natural Approach to Healing the Body, Epilepsy and Pregnancy: What Every Woman Should Know, Co-authored by Dr. Blanca Vasques, M.D., Faith, Courage, Wisdom, Strength and Hope, Natural Cures for Common Conditions and The Secrets of Happiness and Success: The Power Of Positive Thinking. Her love affair with non-fiction and with health genre in general, began during her junior year of college when she was having faced by numerous obstacles due to her epilepsy disorder. Hoping and praying that she would be able to finish college and not let her epilepsy disorder get the best of her, she decided to research her disorder hoping to find out more about her disorder and ways to cope with it. Sadly, there were not many books written about epilepsy during that era. The few books written were by doctors and the medical terminology flew right over your head. Determined to find the answers to my questions, "How can I graduate college when I am constantly having seizures?", "How can I become a success in life and not let epilepsy destroy my hopes and dreams?", "How do people with epilepsy cope with their disorder?" I decided to write an article to epilepsy foundation and asked them to publish it. I wanted to learn how others coped with their disorder. I received hundreds of letters from all over the United States and Canada. I decided to use the knowledge I gained to help myself and others by writing a self-help book called, Epilepsy You're Not Alone. Writing that book changed my life. Letters poured out from readers thanking me for writing the book. I never realized how powerful words could be. My greatest gift was not figuring out how to help myself, it was being able to help others who struggled from the same problem. There is no greater gift in life than the gift of giving. I graduated college, received an Associate's Degrees in Business, and then went on to receive a Bachelor Degree in Marketing and Advertising, but in the end, I changed my career choice to journalism. I graduated Richard Stockton College in 1996. I began writing seriously in 1994, penning the manuscript that would become Epilepsy You're Not Alone. I held many jobs during those first years as a writer, finally settling in (much to our delight) to write full time in 2000. Chillemi is an active member of her community and helps organizations in New Jersey. She has written features for journals and newspapers. Her articles have appeared in dozens of newspapers and magazines in North America and abroad. She won an award from the Epilepsy Foundation of America in 2002 for her help and dedication to people with epilepsy. Born in 1972, Chillemi was born in New York and lives in New Jersey with her husband Michael, and their three children, Michael, Alexis and Anthony. The family pets include two Shih Tzu's, Rocco and Princess, and two birds Elmo and Tweedy. When she is not writing, Chillemi chases after his three Shih Tzu's, takes long walks, hits the gym, and goes to all her kids' football, soccer, wrestling, basketball and cheerleading practices and games.

Packed full of information!
I love how this kindle book has a nice clickable Table of Contents to find specific ailments as well as herbal remedies! Nearly 800 pages of well written, concise, useful information! One of the other things that I highly appreciated was how the author tells you.. how prescription medications may or may not work with various herbal remedies! For example.. if you're taking a blood thinner medication that was prescribed by your physician.. you probably do not want to also take licorice root in tandem.. as it could cause your blood to not clot at all.

The book lists many common ailments.. and gives very specific information on herbal remedies to try. Encourages the reader to keep their personal physicians apprised of EVERYTHING that one is putting into their body. I've recommended this book to quite a few people today! And, many are just as astounded as I am!! A superb book... that I will be using for quite some time to come!

What a terrific accidental purchase!
Long story short, I accidentally purchased this book - thinking I could borrow it (new to the Kindle!) -- I don't even have the Kindle yet that I've just ordered today.

So I brought the book up in my browser to look at it, and what a GREAT BOOK!

This book addresses ailments that we all face as some point with supplements, herbs and foods back by referenced studies.

This is so nice, because I've read a few books similar in the past, and they frequently will leave out references to studies.

I would provide a 6th star for this book if I could, very informative and super helpful.

Great Info
Having authored a book on alternative medicine, I find that this book has filled the gaps on my eduation of the subject. Superbly written and easy to read, you will be on the path to a more heathier you (physically and mentally) after reading and following Stacey Chillemi's guidelines.
