Two Home Remedies

[Rollo Tamasi]

Thank God for natural cures.
Here are two proven remedies.

My wife fell and hurt her ankle. It swelled.
We had company and it was so painful and couldn't stand on it, she had to lie down in bed.
Everyone said, "take her to the emergency room!".
I said no.
I took an onion, sliced it in half, peeled a big piece off of it, and wrapped it with an ace bandaged around her ankle.
The next morning, the swelling was gone, the pain was gone, and she could walk on it.
It was tender but two days later she was back to normal.
There's something about onions drawing bad stuff out of your body.

The second remedy is honey, organic honey.
My wife sliced her hand open, on the back of her hand between the thumb and finger trying to open a tin can.
It was a big slice, it was wide open.
Screaming in pain, the first thought was the emergency room and stitches.
Then I remembered what I read, honey.
I cleaned the cut, put honey on it, and wrapped it in bandages.
At first I changed bandages 3 times a day, and then twice a day.
In one week, it was totally healed and just pinkish in color.
Now, two years later there is not even the slightest notice of a scar.

Yes, they really do work.
The alternative is the emergency room, blood work, needles, stitches, medications, lots of waiting time, a ruined day, and a big bill in the end.

That's the first I heard of an onion for first aid. I'm well aware of the nutritional value of onions, and I hardly go a day without some onion, usually on a salad.

If my wife hurts herself, I can't wait to wrap a smelly onion to her bruise. She HATES onions!

colloidal silver has been used for infections long before anti-biotics came along.

don't grind the onion.

take apiece of it, whatever size you need.

if you leave a sliced onion in your refrigerator and something in the frig has gone bad, the onion will change colors because it is drawing the bad stuff into it.

for that reason i recommend you buy small onions and use a complete onion whenever you need one.

the big thing is honey.

it has so many healing properties. but if you put it on an open wound, then you want organic honey. not natural honey but organic honey. there's a big difference.

Great trick with the onion. Wish I'd known that a couple years back when I slipped and sprained my ankle bad.

Aloe Vera is great for healing too. I used to have the plants when I lived where they would grow. Just slice open one of the big fat leaves and let the juice soak into whatever ails ya. Seriously, it's great for sunburns (any burns really), wind dried skin, cuts and scrapes. Everything just seems to heal faster and better.

Now I have to buy it in bottles, and it's hard to find just plain Aloe Vera without a bunch of other stuff added to it. But even the green stuff with the coloring, perfume, and other additives works. It's just not as natural as slicing into those big succulent leaves and feeling the pain go away as you rub the juice form them into a burn or cut.

I agree with aloe vera juice.

My wife had an ulcer when I first met her.

I bought her aloe vera juice.

She drank about a quart or more a day and in about 2 weeks it was totally gone.

What is the juice? How do you process it?:dunno

 

[Rollo Tamasi]

It's bought in the health food stores mostly.

It's expensive.

 

[Classik]

Thanks. I thought I could naturally process it.

Nice thread Allen.I love reading about stuff like this..not only is it helpful,but amazing to see what can be done with the natural stuff God gave us instead of relying on heavy medication and sometimes potentially unnecessary procedures.

Another use for onions:

If you have a sore throat, before you go to bed at night, place half an onion on a plate, and put that plate on the night stand or dresser. Amazingly enough, it works.

For boils:

If someone you know suffers from boils, spread peanut butter on the boil. (Do not use chunky style peanut butter!) Apparently, it doesn't matter the brand or whether it's natural or blended. This is one at which I use to scoff.... but now know a half-dozen people who have been helped by peanut butter.

Never suffer from a cold, virus, and most flu symptoms ever again!

"Cold-Pressed" Castor Oil.

Most likely again, a health food store buy. Very cheap.

Remedy: Take a small piece of "felt" cloth, the size to fit on your upper chest.

Put the castor oil on it first to slightly saturate it.

Put it on your chest.

Put a plastic baggy over it so the oil doesn't get all over everything.

Put a heating pad on top of that, preferably one of those moist heating pads if you have one.

Leave on for an hour or two.

You should get near instant relief with the virus completely gone in 24-36 hours.

You may need 2-3 applications, depending on severity of virus.

Works everytime, great for babies.
