Great Home Remedies!

by susan567, Apr 25, 2007 12:00AM
I just saw this article posted in The Herald by a syndicated columnist and doctor and thought I'd post it my fellow readers:

List of home remedies, such as cherries for gout, use of soap for leg cramps, the product to remove facial hair, and more:

· Soap for nocturnal leg cramps: Simply place a bar of soap, unwrapped, under the bottom sheet of your bed near your legs. This remedy takes effect immediately.

· Castor oil for arthritis: Rub a small amount of castor oil into the affected joint or joints, morning and night. May take effect immediately, or full results may not be seen for up to four days.

· Grape juice and Certo for arthritis: Place 1 to 2 tablespoons of liquid Certo (or any brand pectin) in 8 ounces of purple grape juice. Drink up to three times a day. May take up to four days for full results.

· Cherries for gout: Eat six to 10 cherries daily as a preventive or 10 to 15 at the start of and during of the gout attack. Reduces the length and pain of the attack.

· Colon cocktail for constipation: Equal portions of apple sauce, bran and prune juice. Take 1 to 2 tablespoons each morning. May take up to 10 days to be fully effective.

· Facial-hair remover: Try a great product called Hair Block, and is manufactured by a company called Cosmetic Lab Sales.

· Ear pain: Sweet oil and garlic oil work wonders for ear pain caused by infection. Simply warm and place a few drops of either into the ear. Results should be immediate.
