Remedy for Canker Sores.........

I recently tried a remedy for those nasty as well as painful Canker Sores. I have been suffering from canker sores since I was in middle school. Sometimes I have one and other times I can have as many as four. The remedy I have found is Sauerkraut! Just put a small cluster of it on the sore(s) up to three or four times a day for as many days as it takes (typically two-four).

There is also Sauerkraut juice that is very beneficial for digestion as well as the canker sores. Just swish the juice around in your mouth for the canker sores and of course consume for better digestion and stomach upset.

Lemon has so many uses.....

I was going to offer one Lemon remedy, however Lemons have so many uses, I will list a few. They are as follows:

Did you know consuming Lemons can dissolve Gallstones? Well, they can. It is actually the Lemonene in the lemon which is reponsible for this. Lemonene is also used as an anticancer agent.

Lemon juice can also be used to relieve sunburns, warts and corns (who knew).

Lemon juice can also kill the harmful bacteria in cuts.

If Lemon juice (from a lemon) is immediately applied to poison ivy, it will bring immediate relief.

A lemon's potassium can strengthen as well as energize the heart. If you can stand it eat the inner white layer. It is full of vitamins and nutrients.

I have found so many remedies from this little yellow citrus, hopefully one will be useful to others.

Fight Anemia with this easy Remedy

I recently learned that there is a natural remedy for those with Anemia. Can  you believe the remedy is found in grapes? Well, not just grapes but nut milk as well. The recipe is as follows:

Combine Raw Grape Juice equally with Nut Milk (as much or as little as you want in a serving).

This remedy furnishes the system with new blood of the purest type. It is said to be an excellent remedy for Anemia.

Eucalyptus Oil to keep away bugs from your home and your skin and more

Do you venture outside only to find yourself being carried away by mosquitos? Do you have a bug problem in your home?

I have found that Eucalyptus Oil can keep away many (not all) types of bugs from entering your home. Just put a few drops across your entries into your home. Also, a few drops around the perimeter of your home. You can also saturate a cotton ball and wipe around your windows and doors to help keep them away. If you really have a bug problem, try saturating severeal cotton balls and placing them under sinks, in closets and in other areas where the problem bugs are found.

 In addition, rubbing exposed areas on your body will keep away biting bugs (dilute with water as you do not want to put pure Eucalyptus oil on your skin). 1/4 cup of water to about 3-5 drops of Eucalyptus Oil should keep the bugs away.

Additional uses for Eucalyptus Oil is as follows:
Joint Pain
Nasal Stuffiness (Breathing in, do not drink or consume)
Genital Herpes

*Remember to dilute as the oil can be very strong and may irritate your skin if not diluted.*

Peppermint Oil for Pain Relief and Better Sleep

I found that Peppermint Oil can actually help relieve body aches and pains as well as help you sleep better. You have to love that! All you have to do is the following (at bedtime for those who wish to sleep better):

Drop three or four drops in the middle of your hairline (obviously you will have to wash the reminants out the following day), drop three or four drops on your fingers and massage into your spine (do not wash your fingers) and rub four or five drops onto the bottom of your feet.

This works for me as well as other family members (yes, one being my German grandmother). I hope it will help you too!
