I wasn't sure if someone on this list sent this or not... but just in

case, here it is again! Some of these MIGHT be true. Some I do NOT know

if they are! But I know the Vicks Vapo Rub on Foot or Toe-nail fungus

works. My DOCTOR told a friend of mine to stop spending money on

expensive creams and Prescription " Toe-nail fungus " preparations, and

use the Vicks Vapo Rub for 2 weeks! Does even better, and costs penny's

he told him. My friend said it WORKED!

Anyone know if any of the others are " true " ?

And what's this about WD-40 for ARTHRITIS??? Huh? I thought it was

" hazardous " with contact/absorption of persons skin??? So what's this

with the WD-40 and rubbing it on use! Oh my!

TIME TO GET UP-TO-DATE ON ALL YOUR SPRING CLEANING NECESSITIES.....

1) Budweiser beer rinse conditions the hair.

2) Pam cooking spray will dry finger nail polish.

3) Cool whip will condition your hair in 15 min.

4) Mayonnaise will kill Lice, it will also condition your hair.

5) Spike your hair with Close-up toothpaste (it will also tint it).

6) Elmer's Glue - paint on your face, allow it to dry, peel off and see

the dead skin and blackheads. Also works to remove splinters or cactus

spines- just let dry on your skin.

7) Shiny Hair - use brewed Lipton Tea.

8) Sunburn - empty a large jar of Nestea into your bath water.

9) Minor burn - Colgate or Crest toothpaste.

10) Burn your tongue? Put sugar on it!

11) Arthritis? Then use WD-40. Spray and rub in, kill insect stings too.

Also spray it on wasps nests -they'll be unable to move.

12) Bee stings - use meat tenderizer.

13) Puffy eyes - use Preparation H

14) Paper cut - crazy glue or chap stick. Glue is used instead of

sutures at most hospitals lately.

15) Stinky feet - use Jell-O!! Put feet in a pan of jello!

16) Athlete's feet - use cornstarch as preventative.

17) Toe-nail fungus? Finger-nail fungus? Foot fungus? Instead of

expensive prescription creams, use Vicks Vapo Rub for 2 weeks. Every

night after bathing, rub on, wear old socks to bed, every night for 2

weeks.

18) Kool aid to clean dishwasher pipes. Just put in the detergent

section and run a cycle, it will also clean a toilet. Goodness, I've

drank a lot of kool aid, think it worked on " my pipes " ?!

19) Kool Aid also can be used as a dye in paint.

20) Peanut butter - will get scratches out of CD's! Wipe off with a

coffee filter paper.

21) Sticking bicycle chain - use Pam no-stick cooking spray.

22) Pam will also remove paint, and grease from your hands! Keep a can

in your garage for your hubby.

23) Peanut butter will remove ink from the face of dolls.

24) Tie Dye T-shirt - mix a solution of kool aid in a container, tie a

rubber band around a section of the T-shirt and soak.

25) Preserving a newspaper clipping - use a large bottle of club soda

and cup of milk of magnesia, soak for 20 min and let dry, will last for

years!

26) To keep goggles and glasses from fogging, coat with Colgate

toothpaste.

27) Stay-Free Maxi Pads - clean window, floors, just stick to the palm

of your hands and work! Can also be used as a knee pad.

28) Wine stains, pour on the Morton salt and watch it absorb into the

salt.

29) To remove wax - Take a paper towel and iron it over the wax stain,

it will absorb into the towel.

30) Remove labels off glassware etc. - rub with peanut butter!

31) Baked on food: fill container with water, add a Bounce softener

sheet and the static from the Bounce will cause the baked on food to

adhere to it.

32) Crayon on the wall - Colgate toothpaste and brush it!

33) Dirty grout - use Listerine.

34) Stains on clothes - use Colgate toothpaste.

35) Grass stains - use Karo Syrup!

36) Grease Stains- use Coca Cola, it will also remove grease stains from

the driveway overnight. We know it will take corrosion from batteries!

37) Sweat Stains - use Efferdent, or vinegar

38) Fleas in your carpet? use 20 Mule Team Borax - sprinkle and let

stand for 24 hours. Or, sprinkle carpet with Morton's Salt and in 2 days

Fleas dead.

39) To Keep FRESH FLOWERS longer Add a little Clorox, or 2 Bayer

aspirin,or just use 7-up instead of water.

I know some of these suggestions do work, but I think I'd have a hard

time putting Preparation H around my eyes, Susie.

No, that's not TMI, just I, LOL, Tess. (The kids and I have so many TMI

laughs.)

Yes, I agree that it makes sense medically, but not psychologically!

I'll focus on the Karo syrup for grass stains. I used it successfully

for the knees of my tomboy daughter's pants years ago.

Susie,

I am pretty sure that WD-40 contains DMSO, which from what I've read about

is not toxic and very effective for arthritis. I recently bought a bottle

from our feed store and plan to try it the next time my elbow or ankles

flare. DMSO is not approved for arthritis but is approved for prostrate

problems.

The company that makes WD-40 doesn't reveal it's ingredients. It says it is

secret, but also adds that nothing in WD-40 causes cancer.

My mother-in-law used PrepH for a myriad of reasons like on sunburns. Think

about it...it is used

for inflamation; so does it matter where you use it? Iris

Yes, I know about DMSO. When I was Vet Tech, we used it a LOT on the

animals for injuries, sprains, etc.... Especially after injections for

the treatment of Heart Worms, when the dogs contracted Heart Worms....

It helped the vessels and leg when the caustic medicine for Heart Worm

treatment went in.

I noticed immediately that my HANDS would stop hurting when I " rubbed

down the dogs " with the DMSO! Amazing, I thought. Then the Vet explained

it to me!

Also, my sister (for her LUPUS) tried the treatment with the Intravenous

DMSO treatments. It worked wonders of her, and quality of life went up

considerably!

My job of 21 years was extremely hard on my hands. They would get so

overused and dry and would actually crack. Especially around the

fingernails! Now THAT hurts! Long " cut looking cuts " which ran from the

sides of my fingernails to the tips of fingers! Eooowwww!

I used Prep H for YEARS and YEARS as a moisture " holder-in " and barrier.

It reduced MUCH inflammation caused by the inks and dyes in newsprint.

When I moved here to coastal GA, I met many " shrimpers " . The " strikers "

(those who worked the back deck and emptied the nets and " headed " the

shrimp)... they ALL used Prep H on their hands! Helped form " barrier "

from the sea-salt water, and the over use and cracking, pealing sore

hands.

It works better, and IMMEDIATELY on the hands, better than any Vaseline

Intensive care lotion or other " over the counter lotions. "

I don't waste my money on those.

I have even used Prep H on my feet and toes! Makes them " soft " , more so

than other creams that keep the ruff down on feet.

Hi Elf,

My husband used the Vicks idea on his toenails on the advice of some S.

African friends, and it worked like magic. As for the WD 40 on the joints,

I was told that just the other day " unofficially " by one of the nurses at

the facility where I had the Remicade study. I've yet to try it, mainly

because it sounds kind of gross, but if someone tries it I would love to

hear how it works.

How are you doing?

Love and hugs,

Carol

[ ] ALL YOUR SPRING CLEANING NECESSITIES

I wasn't sure if someone on this list sent this or not... but just in

case, here it is again! Some of these MIGHT be true. Some I do NOT know

if they are! But I know the Vicks Vapo Rub on Foot or Toe-nail fungus

works. My DOCTOR told a friend of mine to stop spending money on

expensive creams and Prescription " Toe-nail fungus " preparations, and

use the Vicks Vapo Rub for 2 weeks! Does even better, and costs penny's

he told him. My friend said it WORKED!

Anyone know if any of the others are " true " ?

And what's this about WD-40 for ARTHRITIS??? Huh? I thought it was

" hazardous " with contact/absorption of persons skin??? So what's this

with the WD-40 and rubbing it on use! Oh my!

Elf

TIME TO GET UP-TO-DATE ON ALL YOUR SPRING CLEANING NECESSITIES.....

5) Spike your hair with Close-up toothpaste (it will also tint it).

17) Toe-nail fungus? Finger-nail fungus? Foot fungus? Instead of

night after bathing, rub on, wear old socks to bed, every night for 2

weeks.

18) Kool aid to clean dishwasher pipes. Just put in the detergent

section and run a cycle, it will also clean a toilet. Goodness, I've

drank a lot of kool aid, think it worked on " my pipes " ?!

19) Kool Aid also can be used as a dye in paint.

20) Peanut butter - will get scratches out of CD's! Wipe off with a

coffee filter paper.

and cup of milk of magnesia, soak for 20 min and let dry, will last for

years!

26) To keep goggles and glasses from fogging, coat with Colgate

toothpaste.

of your hands and work! Can also be used as a knee pad.

28) Wine stains, pour on the Morton salt and watch it absorb into the

salt.

29) To remove wax - Take a paper towel and iron it over the wax stain,

it will absorb into the towel.

30) Remove labels off glassware etc. - rub with peanut butter!

31) Baked on food: fill container with water, add a Bounce softener

sheet and the static from the Bounce will cause the baked on food to

adhere to it.

33) Dirty grout - use Listerine.

34) Stains on clothes - use Colgate toothpaste.

35) Grass stains - use Karo Syrup!

39) To Keep FRESH FLOWERS longer Add a little Clorox, or 2 Bayer

aspirin,or just use 7-up instead of water.

I have to confess: I've actually tried this. It does work, but I stopped

using it. I can't remember, but I think it gave me a headache. I would try

it one more time as a guinea pig for the group, when I'm going to a special

function. If I do, I'll let you know how it goes.

I guess I'm the butt-head!

Love to all,

Carol

Re: [ ] ALL YOUR SPRING CLEANING NECESSITIES

Prep H...they say it " unpuffs " the bags under your eyes (like it unpuffs

hemmeroids...is that TMI???) Well, it does make sense, but I'm with you

...not sure I could put hiney stuff on my face!!!

Love You...

Tess
