Giant list of Healing

[Sinar]

I see many people on thread ask 'do you know how to cure *enter bruises, cuts, colds ect.*'
Then alot of time people will respond "well, i know alot of cure but, i don't want to waste your time. whats specifically wrong?"
well people, here's your chance to 'waste our time'

In this thread just go ahead and post all the different cures and recipies that you know for healing different ailments. just please, write down what the cure cures.

I know one thing i'm interested in is learning different recipies for healing wounds (like in books and movies and the like were someone finds a plants, crushes it, and uses it as a rub/creme to heal a cut)

i'll start with what i know

-Aleo Plants help heal wounds. I believe you have to crush it down and rub it on the wound.

-Mint tea is supposed to be a good detoxifier

-Green tea helps boost immunity

-Honey helps with sore throats

The outside is firm and pokey. It's the gelly inside that you want. Snap open a leaf and squeeze the gelly goo onto your skin. Great for dry skin, rough skin, sunburns, fire burns, scrapes.


-Honey helps with sore throats
Mix it with lemon. (And it tastes good, too. ;) )

Marshmallow root is also good for sore throats.


- tea from cherry tree bark heals bronchitus

Wood lock is this analgesic I picked up from an oriental market while looking for Dit Da Jow. It's active ingredients are simple - camphor 10%, menthol 16%, methyl salicylate - 50%. I wasn't finding it very useful at first, but I tried some abdominal work from headstands before and after applying some to my still healing wrists. I found that after putting some on, the wrist pain was completely gone. It is very possible though, that my wrists had warmed up from the prior set of headstand abs.

OSHA, propolis, olive leaf extract, and oil of oregano are all really good stuff for sinus problems and sore throats. Plus the olive leaf extract and oil of oregano have fungus, yeast, and virus fighting potential. :)

Cinammon is great for blood sugar, cholesterol, and high triglycerides.

Curcumin has been linked with treating Alzheimers.

yin chiao chiehtupien is the best stuff I've found for sinus headaches, chest congestion, and sore throats from post-nasal drip. Take it as directed 2-4 tablets twice a day for four days. better than nyquil imo.

Honey for coldsores or any sores/cuts in the mouth just dab it on a few times a day, they seem to disappear rather quickly.

Lysine is also great for cold sores or anything herpes related.

Green pollen - relieves hayfever.

Onion and brown sugar - stops coughs (cut up half an onion, sprinkle with demerara sugar, leave for a few hours and drain off the juice. I teaspoon as required)

Dry lips - top of the milk...dip a clean !! finger in and apply.

Bee venom cream - rheumatism.

Pure lavender oil - insect bites, minor burns.

[Battle Sword]

Apply a slice of potato to a cut or an abrasion to reduce infection.

[cheesypeas]

vinegar for the relief of wasp stings :eek:

can't remember what is for bee stings :love:

[Angelus]

Chew a small peice of raw garlic -maybe with a few grains of rice- to treat colds.

Sounds real silly but if your cut and its not a huge gash requiring imediate medicle attention via massive loss of blood super glue will bond small flesh wounds with no ill side affects, also u can boil down suger (grain) and get the same effect burns though. :)
