Do you try "home remedies" when something ails you....?

Or do you run to the nearest chemist ?

Have you looked under the sofa? I lost my keys the other day and found them there. Only a suggestion

Gargle with aspirin and see if that helps (unless you are allergic to aspirin).

Manuka honey is great for sore throats, either by the teaspoon full or with hot water and lemon juice.

I had a fantastic Vietnamese GP years ago who always recommended a couple of days of fasting, introducting plain boiled rice on the third day, boiled chicken to the rice on the fourth day and then flavour on the 5th. If you weren't better by then she would consider drugs or other treatment.

I know someone who uses home remiedies when her kids are ill, she takes them to the Drs finds out wheat is wrong with them and treats them using home remedies. When they fail she will reluctantly resort to pharmacuticals

Vinegar or honey for absolutely everything. I found a book in a charity shops about the uses of vinegar and honey for home remedies and it actually works. Being half super human I'm never ill but if I ever am that's the way I go x

A brisk walk followed by a hot curry, steaming bath, glass of brandy then bed works wonders for a heavy cold.

Totally believe in home remedies including homeopathic as I have seen them work. Having said that I am too impatient to try home remedies ... can not really take time off easily. So its pop a few pills and continue. mind I am not ill very often...

I only take a pill if I really really have to .. otherwise if I have something minor wrong, ie cough, cold, headache etc I follow this old fashioned remedy

Give it a day or so and it'll put itself right

I use a couple of home remedies.

For a bloated stomach/ trapped wind

I teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda in a glass of water helps

Restless legs

Vicks rub on the soles of your feet put socks on and rest.

Any colds or illnesses in the house and sit a cut onion in the room. It helps to clean the air.

I have found they work. Can't think of any others just now.

i read an article a while back - apparently if there is sickness in the home an onion will absorb the germs - there was a lot more to it than that but its definately no biggy to try

And there was me thinking that wire wool and detol was the universal cure.

No it isn't any hassle to try these things first. Of course if medicine is needed I will use it but for minor ailments I will use remedies my mum learned from her grandmother. X
