title: The Handbook of Vintage Remedies
author:  Jessie Hawkins 
description: Jessie Hawkin's passion and expertise are vast. She writes about health and herbal remedies in such a comforting and reassuring way. --Sara Snow; Green Lifestyle Expert, Author and TV Host<br /><br />Jessie Hawkins, MH suggests evidence-based, natural medical therapies that have been shown to be clinically effective alternative therapies. As an integrative family medicine physician, I am continually searching for sources of reliable medical information reporting on clinical applications of natural therapies. To that end, Ms. Hawkins' work makes an important contribution to educate everyone, families and health care providers, on clinical applications of proven therapies. Ms. Hawkins easily and respectfully negotiates the line between traditional and natural therapies and she understands the role that each can play in our health, and in how we choose to help our families lead healthy lives. --Daniel B. Kalb, MD, MPH, FAAFP<br /><br />Jessie has a knack for taking the mystery out of herbal use at home with the family. In her book, The Handbook of Vintage Remedies, she is effective in sharing the wisdom she has gleaned as an experienced mom and herbalist. --Susie Meeks, CPM-TN
