I, for one, hate taking commercial medicines. After all, with all the commercials advertising class action suits stemming from the horrors of various F.D.A. approved drugs, who wants to take one of these potentially deadly products unless they have to. Plus, they are expensive (unless of course you get them free at CVS) So, here are some homemade and healthy alternatives to over-the-counter cures.
Homemade Cough Syrup
- 1 cup raw honey
- 1/4 lemon juice
- Warm the honey over low heat until it loosens up a bit. Stir in the lemon juice
Homemade Anti-Nausea Medication
- Boil 1/2 cup rice in 1 cup water for 10-20 minutes
- Drain water into a cup and sip rice water until symptoms are gone
- 20 Cherries are 10x stronger than aspirin and can relieve headaches. Eat 15-20 when you feel a headache coming on. Fresh are better!
Easy Splinter Removal
- Cover the area with the splinter with a bit of Elmers Glue
- Allow glue to dry
- Peal glue off. The splinter should come with it
