One hideous week when the clocks went forward, Lizzie King - cookbook author, trained nutritionist and mother to three - found herself with a house full of children who did not want to sleep. In an act of sheer desperation, she turned to her knowledge of nutrition and created a sour cherry and banana smoothie that not only restored bedtime, the recipe went viral when she posted it online.

The reason it worked is that sour cherry has a natural source of melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep, so the smoothie works to combat everything from jetlag to stress from exams, or whatever it is that's causing you not to sleep and sending you berserk. In Restore, Lizzie shares her best-loved home remedies, perfect for the whole family, and best of all, you may already have the ingredients in your kitchen cupboard. SOS Remedies include an Oat bath soak for eczema, a Charcoal sick bug tonic, and a Ginger honey cough remedy, to name a few. As well as urgent help, Lizzie shares recipes for not-so-urgent ailments that are just as necessary, such a Tired honey face mask, Coconut sugar body scrub, Hangover healer, natural Orange & Lemon surface spray (which is good for the planet and will not trigger allergies), an Instant chemical-free sink unblocker and more.

Working from the inside out, the book features targeted remedies for common problems such as sickness, headaches, sleeplessness, anxiety and poor concentration, as well as feel-good recipes to put on our bodies, around it and into the space we live.
