If you happen to burn yourself, cut a piece of tati (potato for those of you outside Ireland) and strap it on the burn using a bandage and feel the heat ease away. It won't just take the heat out of the burn it also stops the burn from blistering and it won't stick to your skin....
- Yogurt- This dairy product is great for getting rid of bad breath. The good bacteria in the yogurt balances the gut and saliva and gets rid of any odor in the mouth. Plain, organic will do just add your own bits to make it tasty.
- Fennel Seeds- These tiny little seeds will dispel any gas or wind that may be making you a bit airy. They neutralize the air in the system by getting rid of the gas. They also taste nice. This little seed is offered to anyone eating in a restaurant while dinning in India. You can toast them in a dry pan for added nutty flavor or make a tea by steeping 1 teaspoon of seeds in 1 cup of hot water for about 5 minutes.
- Green tea- Yes, there are more uses for green tea then we all suspected. This tea is said to help the scalp regain moisture and rid itself of dandruff. Steep two tea bags in 1 cup hot water and allow to cool. Once cooled take the tea in the shower with you and apply to your scalp after you have washed your hair.
- Horseradish- This tuber is said to clear congestion in the sinuses if sniffed or eaten. I do believe this as I have often got a runny nose after eating horseradish. Enjoy :}
- Onions- Onions are said to relieve the skin of itchy bug bites. Most commonly used for mosquito bites but can be used on any itchy bite. The sulfites in the onions help relieve the skin. Just cut the onion and rub over bite. Any type of onion will do.
