4 Amazing Home Remedies

Looking for something to soothe your sore throat or settle your stomach? Look no further than your own kitchen!

Here are four great natural home remedies that can put your maladies in place:

Ginger

Ginger has antibacterial qualities, helps to relax the muscles, reduces inflammation, and improves blood flow in the body. Mix with hot water, and drink it to treat menstrual cramps, nausea and bloating.

Cranberries

Full of antioxidants, cranberries contain a compound that fights off the bacteria that causes urinary tract infections. Drink a cup of cranberry juice a day for a healthy bladder.

Oatmeal

Oatmeal is packed with phytochemicals that have anti-inflammatory properties. Soothe rashes and eczema by applying a paste – made up of one cup of oatmeal and a little water – to your skin. Leave it on for 10 minutes.

Turmeric

Turmeric has strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. For a superficial cut or scrape, mix half a teaspoon of turmeric powder with a drop or two of water to make a paste, and then dab onto the wound. Once it is dry, cover with a plaster or dressing.
