Home Remedies For Dry Skin: Some of Them Are More Than Old Wives’ Tales, as Fuller Brush Knows
Jan 4th
“So what home remedies for dry skin would you recommend?” Natasha asked Charlie, as she padded out of her bedroom holding a Fuller Brush toothbrush in her hand. “I mean, they’re all nuts, right? Old wives’ tales if you ask me.”
Charlie shrugged.
“There’s a ring of truth to the ones that are still around today,” he insisted.
His roommate stepped towards him and poked him in the chest as she responded:
“They’re all hoopla, my friend!”
“Hoopla?” he responded.
“They’re all marketing gimmicks. The best anti-wrinkle creams – if you ask me, and you didn’t – but the best anti-wrinkle creams on the market are actually sold as hemorrhoid creams.”
“Hemorrhoid creams?” he repeated, wrinkling his own face.
“You gotcha!” Natasha poked him once more for good measure.
“Alright, first of all, what did I tell you about personal space?” Charlie asked her. “You cannot flirt with me and give me the impression that you like me – as you usually do – because it hurts me right here.” He touched his chest.
She took a theatrical step back, and looked down at her tee shirt and legs as if making sure she was not invading his space. Then she pointed to the gap between her eyebrows.
“Look,” she said, and he saw the patch of dry skin. “How do I fix this without using one of your stupid home remedies for dry skin?”
“You and me have known each other since when? Middle school?” Charlie asked her.
She nodded, adding: “And then some.”
“And then some. And have I ever given you bad advice?”
She pouted and shook her head.
“I’ve never steered you wrong, right?”
“No, Charlie. But what are you going to give me to clear up my dry skin?”
“Witch hazel lotion,” he declared. He pulled open the bathroom door and she followed him in. He opened the cabinet above the sink and took out the container of Fuller Brush lotion.
“Witch hazel!” she shrieked, and she then cackled like a witch. “It even sounds like something out of the seventeenth century!”
“A lot of these so-called home remedies, as you call them,” Charlie began. “You take Saint John’s Wort, or Valerian root, or lavender – take your pick, Tash – these are still popular today because they actually work. Now I’m not some dippy hippy, alright? I’m not a member of the yogurt mad bean curd brigade.”
She laughed.
“I work a nine to five job,” he continued. “…where I have to be clean shaven. I have to shave every day, and one of those home remedies for dry skin that you baulk at is this Fuller Brush witch hazel lotion. Just try it, alright?”
She looked at him in the mirror, put his arms around his shoulders and smiled. They looked at each other’s reflections.
“Alright, I’ll give it a go.”
“Tash, you’re breaking my heart here.”
“Huh?” She looked at him in the mirror.
“Personal space?”
She pecked him on the cheek.
“You love it really,” she said.

Asthma : Natural Cures and Remedies for Asthma
Jan 4th
If you went to your doctor and asked him or her about asthma prevention, the advice you would likely get would be to “avoid triggers”. Indeed, this is good advice. People with asthma should try to keep their immediate environment as free as possible from the elements that typically trigger an asthma attack. However, asthma prevention has been shown to be enduring with the Buteyko Breathing Method.
Figs contain natural agents which are useful in the treatment of asthma. They are soaked in water for the whole night and are eaten early in the morning. This treatment is although slow but is very effective one. Its combination with the first method can increase its effectiveness.
Naturally, an asthma attack, even a mild one, would be enough reason why a person would avoid any strenuous activity. While it is true that air pollution, allergens, and other inhaling irritants can trigger it, doctors have also included physical exertion as one of the culprits. Hence, many asthmatics tend to gain weight unconsciously in their effort to keep away from any instance that could trigger an attack. Kids, especially, are glued to TV and video games instead of playing outdoors. This only resulted to a growing number of asthmatic children who are also obese.
Children commonly throw tantrums. Emotional upsets have been shown to cause or made worse attacks in children. Nocturnal asthma is more common in children. It is caused by a few factors including body position during sleep that can affect breathing.
Relaxation and stress elimination is one way to relieve asthma through breathing exercises that literally slow down one’s breathing sometimes causing hyperventilation. There are two well-known methods to do this: The Buteyko Breathing Technique, which includes relaxation exercises, stress relieving exercise medication use, and tips on general health and nutrition. The other method is called Papworth, which encourages an asthma sufferer to find a breathing rate using diaphragmatic breathing exercises that works to reduce symptoms of asthma. In the United States, it is hard to find someone practicing the art of these techniques, so it is best to gain information via a book or video.
There are two types of medicines used to treat asthma. Short term relief medicines are used as immediate treatment. They are usually bronchodilators and they increase diameter of bronchi resulting in the increase of air supply to the lungs. Long term medicines usually consist of steroids such as corticosteroid. They are inhaled in the body and reduce the swelling of airways. They also reduce the amount of mucus present in the airways. For long term control they are also available in liquid form and also as tablets.

Menopause is a situation in which the menstruation of a woman stops for one year and ends her reproductive cycle. This is just a normal occasion in a woman’s life. It occurs in every woman when she achieves her late thirties to early fifties. Menopause happens under the influence of hormonal changes in the body. When a woman reaches this period, there are physical and chemical changes that happen and many women practice mood swings, depression, anger, hot flashes, cold sweats, vaginal dryness, urinary changes such as dribbling or repeated urination and burning, and changes in both menstruation and xxx drive. If this happens, the woman must take excellent care of her health and nutrition. Those who encourage themselves well make it through this stage in a good manner.
Menopause is the shutting down of child bearing ability of the woman, and as women go through menopause, their bodies do not produce sufficient amounts of the female hormones.
Many women have to undergo uncomfortable menopausal symptoms; but many herbal remedies have been known to relieve menopausal symptoms.

However, studies have shown that ginseng does not relieve hot flashes, which is a common occurrence with menopausal women.
-Valerian root: This herb has been used as a sedative but it is known to have side effects. The constant use of this herb has been known to cause heart problems and delirium!
