Some Helpful Home Remedies

Today, I ran accross some interesting home remedies that I am going to try if the need arises....which I am sure at least one will. I won't swear by these, and you are more than encouraged to check them out for yourself. Just thought I would pass them on for those of us who don't want to take "one more drug", or those who like to have multiple uses for one product. I'm all about saving money, so this is something I wanted to share with you.

Be blessed, not stressed...think up, not down....give to, not out....and be with, not without.

I do hope these work....

Who knew?


*Did you know that drinking two glasses of Gatorade can relieve headache

pain almost immediately-without the unpleasant side effects caused by

traditional pain relievers?

*Did you know that Colgate Toothpaste makes an excellent salve for burns?

*Before you head to the drugstore for a high-priced inhaler filled with

mysterious chemicals, try chewing on a couple of curiously strong Altoids

peppermints. They'll clear up your stuffed nose.

*Achy muscles from a bout of the flu? Mix 1 tablespoon horseradish in 1 cup

of olive oil. Let the mixture sit for 30 minutes, then apply it as a

massage oil for instant relief for aching muscles.

*Sore throat? Just mix 1/4 cup of vinegar with 1/4 cup of honey and take 1

tablespoon six times a day. The vinegar kills the bacteria.

*Cure urinary tract infections with Alka-Seltzer. Just dissolve two tablets

in a glass of water and drink it at the onset of the symptoms.

Alka-Seltzer begins eliminating urinary tract infections almost instantly-even

though the product was never advertised for this use.

*Honey remedy for skin blemishes... cover the blemish with a dab of honey

and place a Band-Aid over it. Honey kills the bacteria, keeps the skin

sterile, and speeds healing. Works overnight.

*Listerine therapy for toenail fungus: Get rid of unsightly toenail fungus

by soaking your toes in Listerine Mouthwash. The powerful antiseptic

leaves your toenails looking healthy again.

*Easy eyeglass protection... to prevent the screws in eyeglasses from

loosening, apply a small drop of Maybelline Crystal Clear Nail Polish to the

threads of the screws before tightening them.

*Cleaning liquid that doubles as bug killer... if menacing bees, wasps,

hornets, or yellow jackets get in your home and you can't find the

insecticide, try a spray of Formula 409. Insects drop to the ground instantly.

*Smart splinter remover: Just pour a drop of Elmer's Glue-All over the

splinter, let dry, and peel the dried glue off the skin. The splinter sticks to

the dried glue.
