I am an herbology student, and my herbal and nutritional references are many, however, this is the one book that I turn to more often than any others. It gives complete herbal instructions in an easy to use, fun format. I am purchasing copies for my teenage daughters who seem to find something new in it everyday. It is a book you should not be without. If you are looking for a book with complete, effective herbal remedies for not only your family, but for your household and pets- LOOK NO FURTHER!!
Jude, God bless you!

I bought this book about 5 years ago, and was looking at Amazon to see if Jude had written any more books like this one. I absolutely love this book. It is filled with natural, easy remedies for just about everything that you can imagine. Every time one of my family members is sick, I pull this book and see what I can find. I have used it so many times that the cover is very worn out. Well worth it!

I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in using herbs for various household, beauty and health needs. There is even information to help care for your pets. The recipes are clear, concise and effective. Anyone at any level of experience and expertise can use this book and achieve results. A definate must.

The author gets right to the heart of it with the signature of the herbs---terrific! Not many books out there that tell you exactly what to do, and how much dosage! I've been looking and hers is the best yet! I advise you to keep it handy on your kitchen shelf as you'll be able to use it every day! A great book!

I bought this book several years ago and it is very dog-eared now, I use and reference it very often. I do a lot of herbal remedies for my family and several friends and this is the best reference book I have found. I especially like the way it tells why some of the herbs work good for certain illnesses. I recommend this book to anybody who is interested in herbal medicine or simple country living.

If you are a wise woman, healer, medicine woman, or herbalist then add this wonderfull little book to your shelves. I was very pleased to have an older copy of this book and use it all the time. Buy this book along with HERBS AND THINGS and HEALING WISE and you will have a complete herbal library.

At the back of the book you'll find drawings of many of the plants used in the formulas for safe identifications. This is a fascinating book for those of us unfamiliar with the territory and a must for the serious herb user

I purchased the book "JUDE'S HERBAL HOME REMEDES" about a month ago and have used it everyday. This book is so informative and fun you just can't put it down. Full of information for everything from shampoo to animal ailment remedies. My money was well spent when I bought this book.

Thank you Jude for sharing your knowledge with the rest of the world.

While many of ideas are practical for the "mountain-living" type, I doubt an apartment dweller would find much use in the recipe for lye soap. An attempt is made to keep to the tame remedies (lemon & honey, etc.), but many are ineffective and some are still plain dangerous (like taking potentially lethal megadoses of vitamins as cures). The herbal glossary is useful, as well as the scientific listing of names in the back, but I would recommend few of the recipes between.

This book is very interesting, its pages and pages and pages of various herbal suggestions and non herbal suggestions. She has suggestions for bath preparations, salves, common every day things such as instant coffee mixes, (like those small instant coffee blends we buy in the stores for 4+ dollars a can),and much, much, more and its worth purchasing just those bits of information. More than likely if you want to find something you will find it here. If you are looking for a book on herbs this isn't it however. I do like the book, its fun to go thru and try different things from it
