"They are considered one of the most important milestones in the history of medicine and have saved millions of people's lives. Antibiotics are among the most efficient bacteria killers of all. But this miracle weapon is gradually becoming blunt. (...) Because more and more bacterial strains are becoming resistant and no longer react to antibiotic agents. Medicine is now making use of the immune system of the plant world. The essential oils, secondary plant substances such as flavonoids, anthocyanins and bitter substances are even effective against viruses and fungi. (...)"

"Despite the challenging subject matter, the whole book is presented in a very reader-friendly way and impresses with a wealth of excellent illustrations (photos) (...). Conclusion: An outstandingly helpful book that builds trust and takes the reader (and those seeking help) seriously, informs them fundamentally, encourages them, without spreading illusions, as the limits of green antibiotics are also mentioned. My own conclusion: I made myself some ginger tea and ate some bread with pepper. Great!" → Full review...
Alliteration– Your online magazine about literature & media, Dr. Astrid van Nahl, July 2024
"Comprehensive information on the highly topical issue of antibiotics and their misuse, including practical recommendations for gentle alternatives."
NaturalPharmacy04/2018
"A successful introduction to herbal antibiotic alternatives - clear, with numerous illustrations and practical tips for use. (...) Short, concise and clear - that is what makes Wormer's list so special. The beautiful photos lighten things up even more, the understandable explanations and the author's never didactic narrative tone contribute to this even further. (...) So anyone interested in alternative healing methods will definitely find what they are looking for here and can use them themselves if necessary. (...)"
Lazy Literature, Dec. 2015
"(...) This book shows the full potential of natural antibiotics. It explains in detail how they work and when their use makes sense. It then introduces important herbal antibiotics, their properties, areas of application and dosage forms. Another chapter also deals with the treatment options for the most common diseases with herbal antibiotics."
Elderly care, Dec. 2015
"(…) An absolute must for every doctor who prescribes antibiotics and is thereby encouraged to change his prescribing behavior and for every layperson who is supposed to take antibiotics, as this book explains in a medically sensible way and shows naturopathic alternatives, provided the patient is willing to cooperate and is not just looking for a supposed 'quick cure', which often is not the case."
änd Doctors News Service, Aug 2015
"(…) Already in the first chapter, the reader is informed ruthlessly about global antibiotic resistance. (...) The second third of the book begins with "green antibiotics". (...) In addition to biological characteristics, the author has compiled useful information about their use and preparation as a medicine and in some cases has named the number of studies listed in Pub-Med."
Medical Journal Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Issue 9/2016
"(...) it creates an awareness that, firstly, antibiotic treatments should be viewed critically and their justification must be questioned and, secondly, that nature offers wonderful alternatives and that various "infections can be treated alternatively."
Midwifery Forum 2/2017, Lisa Leitlein
"(...)A very informative book that encourages you to listen more to your body's signals and to stand on the green side of the (healing) power."
Susanne Strobach Consulting, February 2017
"(...) This book is really worth its weight in gold. (...) The guide from Mankau Verlag has an important and correct message for everyone who is a little suspicious of the tablets in the medicine cabinet."
