THIS PICTURE IS NOT WHAT YOU SHOULD DO FOR YOUR SUNBURN!>>>>>>>> If you discover you've played in the sun a little too long, a quick look through your kitchen cabinets can provide you with the relief from that burn. All-natural home remedies you can use for sunburns: Aloe Vera – Remove some leaves from your aloe plant and refrigerate them. Then, peel off the top layer of leaves and apply the side of the leaf with flesh exposed directly to the sunburn. Aloe is great for relieving pain and inflammation. Baking Soda Compress -- Dissolve baking soda in cool water, and make a compress using a clean cloth. Place cloth on sunburned area. Remove as heat is drawn out and replace with cool compress again. Alternately, put 1/2 cup of baking soda into your tepid bathwater, then let the affected area air dry. Cucumbers – You can rub the sunburned area with fresh cucumber slices or simply place them on the affected area and let them draw out the heat. As the slices become warm, put them into the refrigerator and repeat until the burn is relieved. Lemon Water – This is one of the easiest to do. Take the juice from three lemons and mix with two cups of cold water. Sponge the mixture onto the sunburn. Epsom Salts -- Dissolve ½ cup Epsom salts in a bowl of water with ice cubes. Make a compress with a clean cloth. Place the cloth on burned area to draw out heat. Repeat as needed. Additionally, you can dissolve Epsom salts in your cool bath water and soak the affected area for 10 to 15 minutes. Works great! Study: Chocolate Reduces Blood Pressure The new research from Germany adds to mounting evidence linking dark chocolate with health benefits, but it's the first to suggest that just a tiny amount may suffice. University of Cologne researcher Dr. Dirk Taubert, the study's lead author, said the blood pressure reductions with dark chocolate were small but still substantial enough to potentially reduce cardiovascular disease risks. One problem is chocolate bars containing cocoa tend to have lots of calories, so Taubert and his colleagues tested small amounts containing just 30 calories each.

Here's How To Care For Your Feet Wash them daily and dry thoroughly between the toes. Wear well-ventilated shoes. Make sure they fit. Avoid point styles and other toe-crushers. Wear socks made of synthetics that draw moisture away from your skin. Cotton is not as good. If your feet sweat a lot, try an antiperspirant on them. Cut toenails short and straight across. It's okay to apply nail polish to cover up the discolored nail. If you do have toenail fungus, gently remove debris from under the nail with an orange-wood stick (used for manicures) once a week. Go barefoot and/or wear sandals when you can. Fungi thrive in dark, wet places. (inside shoes) If you share pedicure tools with your family, wash and disinfect the tools (dip them in alcohol) after use. If you go to a nail salon, make sure the tools are disinfected, or take your own. |
