Guest guest Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 Cayenne: Great for a toothache. Make a paste with a few drops of water and a teaspoon full of cayenne. Dip a cotton swab into the paste and dab on your tooth (not gum). If you feel congested and/or achy, boil one cup of water, add 3-4 tablespoons of cider vinegar and ½ teaspoon of cayenne. Stir and drink. Yes, it tastes somewhat awful, but it works! You may ad a tablespoon of honey to sweeten if you would like….and you probably will. Cinnamon: This lovely spice helps ease diarrhea and also dries up a runny nose. Make a tea with 1 tsp of cinnamon and 1 cup boiling water. Steep 15 minutes, strain out the cinnamon and drink. Ginger: If you are pregnant, this is a great remedy for morning sickness as well as an antidote for motion sickness. Good for upset stomach as well! Make a tea with 1 tsp of ground ginger and 1 cup boiling water. Steep 10 minutes and drink. Sage: Ah-h-h hot flashes; our own personal trip to the tropics! Try drinking a cup of sage tea three times a day. Add ¾ tsp sage to 1 cup boiling water. Steep 10 minutes, strain and drink. Don’t forget to add a paper umbrella! Thyme: Because of its history of being rich in germ-killing compounds, thyme has been used throughout the ages as an expectorant and antiseptic. For coughs, add 1 tsp dried thyme to 1 cup boiling water. Steep for 10 minutes, strain and drink. For sore throats, brew 2 tsps thyme in 1 cup boiling water for 10 minutes. Garble vigorously, then spit it out. Karma The secret of being all you have within you to be is as simple as having a goal, following a proven plan of action to attain it, and then developing a constant and never-ending Persistence to achieve that goal.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 Sage is good for a LOT of stuff. I always have sage tea around. I put in the recipe for making your own tea, just in case people couldn't find the teabags. Karma some natural remedies LifeLift > Cayenne: Great for a toothache.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 Cinnamon added to the bath will warm you up if you're cld in the winter. Also, adding some to your socks or even just your shoes/boots will warm up cold feet. :-) Karma Tucker <karmatucker@...> wrote: Sage is good for a LOT of stuff. I always have sage tea around.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 That is truly interesting about sage for hot flashes. I noticed the help for toothache. One sure fire help is of course, warm salt water, swished several times around the tooth. If that doesn't subside the pain..putting salt directly on the tooth that is aching with stop the pain. I was so surprised when my husband was in excruciating pain with his tooth and this was the only thing that stopped the pain.
