‘Our friend the cabbage leaf’ is a commentary on and a translation of the main parts of Dr Blanc’s original work on the medicinal properties and uses of the cabbage leaf when applied externally. It tells the remarkable story of how a 19th century doctor in France stumbled across this ancient remedy that still has relevance today. Having succeeded with ulcers, Dr Blanc gradually widened this treatment only to discover more and more complaints both trivial and serious that responded wonderfully to this versatile, safe, helpful, reliable, inexpensive and non-toxic 'friend’. 'Friend' because it still offers a genuinely helpful hand in so many troubles as well as in recovery from so many illnesses
