I depend on garlic for my own health and that of my girls. Between garlic and raw vinegar, I have learned you can battle strep and grow your immunity against it. Otherwise, I was constantly getting antibiotics for it. Herbs are truly God's intended way for health.diamond in the roughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17319713014710623619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6630829430019968762.post-55371211320116576182010-07-23T20:41:47.357-05:002010-07-23T20:41:47.357-05:00I firmly believe that Baking Soda and Vinegar were...I firmly believe that Baking Soda and Vinegar were a gift from God to women:) I did NOT know that it helped with bites, however! I have great respect for the powers of Chicken Noodle Soup when one is ill. I know that this is not exactly a "home remedy" but Vicks VaporRub is great and versatile. I have used it on my aching joints and muscles just like a muscle rub!<br />Thanks for the SWEET comments on my lil bloggie:) I am looking forward to hearing more of your home remedies!!<br /> Happy Friday!Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18001350134130555611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6630829430019968762.post-68180248632540878492010-07-23T08:37:33.840-05:002010-07-23T08:37:33.840-05:00I'll have to invest in baking soda since the s...I'll have to invest in baking soda since the skeeters absolutely adore me!!! ;) Our great niece was born yesterday...4 lb 12 ounces. I haven't heard today how she's doing since they're 4 hours behind us (in Anchorage, Alaska).

A charity store. I think you call them goodwill stores in the States. Op shop is an Australian term.<br />Thanks for popping in to visit me and for your lovely comment.<br /><br />Ky xKyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13671939195525059704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6630829430019968762.post-56979868412402793642010-07-22T22:42:21.482-05:002010-07-22T22:42:21.482-05:00Hi Stephanie, I love peppermint oil too!

Plus, a little peppermint oil in a cup of hot tea is a great WAKE you up in the morning drink. :o) Essential Oils are wonderful but I didn't want to go into that with my post getting so long already.<br /><br />I will have to do a post just about essential oils soon. :o) I'm glad you mentioned peppermint-It's a life saver!Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00944882257793647449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6630829430019968762.post-89151141870259902792010-07-22T22:38:07.860-05:002010-07-22T22:38:07.860-05:00Love it.

Apparently the antibodies in the milk fight infection. <br /><br />I think we did it for all our children as babies.<br /><br />Debby--How exciting! I haven't even seen the new book yet. :o) Jeff said he would send our copy but it hasn't arrived. I'm dying to read it. :o)<br /><br />Amy K, I do think that the biggest part about soup--chicken or otherwise--is the marrow from simmering soup with bones. Broth has been used for patients for centuries. Tons of nutrition in every spoonful. Just give him the echinacea, super tonic, and Emergen-C drinks. Of course, he may not be willing to drink those either. :o) There is only so much of my home remedy arsenal that Tim will endure.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00944882257793647449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6630829430019968762.post-33139604835959158912010-07-22T21:11:45.305-05:002010-07-22T21:11:45.305-05:00This will sound weird, but I finally have my famil...This will sound weird, but I finally have my family convinced that it works - chamomile tea (cooled, of course) as an eye wash to stop pinkeye in it's tracks. We all use this now, and within 3-4 rinses, all symptoms are gone. I actually even find it soothing when seasonal allergies make my eyes itchy. Hope that doesn't sound TOO out there!Karenhttp://www.karensramblings.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6630829430019968762.post-43739634680390193352010-07-22T20:02:36.110-05:002010-07-22T20:02:36.110-05:00Some great tips.

It'll make you feel better!" And I had to tell them, "Psst! He doesn't like chicken. Or soup."<br />Hah.AmyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11858532680011429919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6630829430019968762.post-71186802286794554372010-07-22T19:04:27.601-05:002010-07-22T19:04:27.601-05:00I needed the baking soda and nail polish tip most ...I needed the baking soda and nail polish tip most of all.
