How To Cure Health Problems From Your Kitchen.

By Richard Ealom

Would'nt you like to uncover hundreds of household remedies you can apply when you want to care for any everyday health condition for instance acne or nausea, insomnia or wrinkles and almost everything in between?

A home remedy is in essence anything you can apply at home that does not need a prescription. You most likely own many of the ingredients in your cupboards already:

BICARBONATE OF SODA

use it in place of talcum powder to counteract body or foot odors.

MUSTARD

add it to a tepid footbath to reduce a headache.

TEA BAGS

hold a damp one over a mouth canker sore to reduce the sting.

Some, such as arnica balm, are sold in health-food markets whilst others like chamomile tea are sold in supermarkets.

In current medical practice, long-established curative techniques are sometimes abandoned but, by and large, they have not been totally lost. Physiotherapists utilize the same hot and cold treatments that were routine among Indigenous American tribes - treatments that often work better than prescription drugs but with out any of the side effects.

A cut from a kitchen knife may perhaps mend sooner when you apply antibacterial salve. But did you know that applying it with honey does the identical thing and works even more quickly?

Molly Hopkins, a 60 year-old landscaper, discovered first-hand that alternative remedies can work better than prescribed pills. 'I used to get sinus infections when ever I caught a cold and then I had to take antibiotics,' she says. An acquaintance, who is a family MD, told her to commence taking echinacea at the first notice of sniffles. 'I have not had a severe cold ever since that time - and no sinus infections at all'.

Nearly all of us employ conventional cures for minor aches and pains, but doctors at top research institutions are beginning to understand that they can also help out with critical health problems. Take diabetes, for example, hundreds of millions of people have to to receive injections every day or oral drugs to keep their blood sugar levels steady. But those who eat a clove of garlic daily, may be able to drop their blood sugar naturally, and with it, their doses of medication.

Depression is another ailment that frequently requires pills, but studies confirm that the herb Saint Johns Wort might be as effective as drugs for minor to moderate conditions. Several of the most popular home cures, such as yogurt for fungal infections or chamomile tea for wakefulness, have been used for generations. Others, what you might name -future traditions- that will be passed on to our kids and grandchildren - are being developed every day.

* Creams containing the herb arnica, help bruises to cure quicker and with a lesser amount of pain because they contain natural pain killing and anti-inflammatory compounds.

* A blend of honey and yogurt forms a natural bleach that can assist to lighten the brown liver spots that normally show on the backs of our hands as we mature.

* Researchers at a USA childrens hospital recently found that duct tape, that do-it-all family standby, can make warts go away in only a few days.

Dont you believe that it is time that you discovered the usefulness of natural home remedies, and just why they are enjoying such a flood of esteem nowadays? - 32389
