Tea Tree deodorant with Cocoa and Shea. About this recipe: It is basically the total opposite of other recipes. It stays solid at room temperature. It goes on light and creamy. The recipe is made with butters and waxes, no oils, so it keeps pit stains at bay. It's naturally antifungal, antiviral, antibacterial, antimicrobial, antiseptic, cicatrisant {so if you ever knick your delicate under arm area, you'll heal quicker and won't have marks}, a natural bug repellent, keeps odor in check.

Who knew? If emergency occurs... While the blood is gushing - hold pressure and crack open an egg. Peel that membrane off and put it on the wound (continue holding pressure) The membrane will harden and keep the wound closed until you can get to the ER for stitches

NATURAL COLD REMEDY/simple DIY detox bath 1. Run a hot bath. It opens pores and prepares body for cleansing. 2. Add three pints of food-grade hydrogen peroxide (3%). This oxygenates the body and helps purge toxins. It’s also antibacterial and antiviral. 3. Add two ounces of ground ginger, a natural anti-inflammatory that increases blood circulation and helps promote the elimination of toxins through sweat. 4. Soak for about 30 minutes. 5. Drink lots of water; You need to replenish what’s being pulled out of your system.

herbal honey as a medicine. add garlic and sage directly to the honey, and let sit for 2 weeks. a wonderful, healing medicine that soothed throats and calmed coughs for kids - and it wasn't a hassle to have them take it!

Did you know that a teaspoon of honey (raw is best) and a 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon will usually knock out a cold within a day or two? Take twice a day for 3 days for best results. So many people on the permalink have had good luck with this that I've got to try!
