HERE is a set of articles and photos about natural home remedies for everything from upset stomach to psoriasis and allergies. My favorites:
*For BLEMISHES/ACNE: Scrub face gently with coarse salt and a few drops of neem oil. Then apply a mask of plain yogurt for 15-30 minutes. The salt is an antiseptic and helps to exfoliate, the neem oil has antifungal properties, and the lactic acid in the yogurt further exfoliates.
*For UPSET STOMACH: Sip tea made with pomegranate skin or oak bark. If using pomegranate, use 1 tbsp dried pomegranate skin steeped in boiling water for 3-4 minutes. If using oak bark, boil 1 tbsp in water for 3 minutes, then let it steep for 30 minutes, strain and enjoy. Apparently the high level of tannins helps ease stomach discomfort.
*For HANGOVERS: Drink a glass of tomato juice with a splash of tabasco (or Frank's) sauce. The antioxidants in the tomato juice and the metabolic stimulation of the tabasco/frank's aid the body in eliminating toxins post alcohol binge. NOTE: don't expect a miracle. If you drink heavily, only time, rest, electrolytes, and water will do the trick. This remedy merely helps to ease symptoms and support your body while it takes care of the mess left over from the night before.
