A tasty recipe for PMS relief can be made from whole wheat or brewer’s yeast (vitamin B6 and fiber), walnuts (vitamin B6, omega-3), pure chocolate (calcium, magnesium), and flaxseed oil (omega-3). There must be something yummy you can make with these ingredients!

Those little juicy jewels inside the pomegranate are not the only part of this fruit that is healthy. The skin of the fruit can be dried and used in tinctures and extracts, as it has anti-bacterial qualities. It’s great as a throat spray and helps avoid colds and flues.

Many protein and healthy food bars include berries and other fruit in them. Unfortunately, many of these come from dried fruit sources and most dried fruits are loaded with sulfite preservatives. That means the entire food bar is compromised. Read the labels carefully and make sure the added fruits are organic if possible. Sulfites are poison, even if you’re not sulfite sensitive.

Did you know that babies formulate their food tastes in the first year after birth? If you give your baby sugary, sweet foods and juices in this period, your child will likely crave sweets for the rest of his or her life. Look for juices and baby foods that are not sweet — whether naturally or (especially) artificially.

Most health conscious people are aware of the dangers of aspartame, the artificial sweetener in most diet soft drinks. But what you might not realize is that some products that are not even sugar free contain the stuff — just look on the label the next time you purchase breath mints or chewing gum. It’s a real shame that non-diet products include this poison!

Did you know that one of the strongest anti-fungal remedies you can find is oregano oil? Spread some on your athlete’s foot or other skin fungus for fast results. It also helps avoid infection from acne and other skin abrasions. Other great natural anti-fungals include teatree oil, raw garlic, and pine oil.

If you end up over doing it in the alcohol department, try this mixture to get your body back into good running order: Start with a glass of tomato juice or vegetable juice and add a teaspoon of spirulina, liquid vitamin B complex, and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Next empty two capsules of Milk Thistle, two capsules of garlic extract, and two DHEA capsules and drink up.

Suffering from a bacterial skin infection or athlete’s foot? Try rubbing some liquid Lecithin into the infected area every night. It may feel sticky and uncomfortable, but the results may surprise you. Lecithin can rejuvenate skin and kill bacterial infections.

If you’re feeling low energy in the afternoon, jumpstart your day and your mood with this anti-depressive, energy swirl: Mix a heaping tablespoon of pure chocolate with a tablespoon each of flaxseed oil, honey, molasis walnuts and/or sunflower seeds. A pinch of pure guarana powder tops it off without over doing it. Eat it off the spoon like frosting.

A teaspoon of sugar may help the medicine go down, but a teaspoon of honey before bed will help you relax and counter the negative effects of stress, regulate blood sugar, clean your liver, and balance hormones. Now that’s good medicine.

If you are trying to lose weight, eat half a grapefruit with every meal (or just after). Research shows that grapefruit affects your insulin and blood sugar and makes it easier to drop pounds.

Whenever you travel to Africa or tropical lands, you can minimize the risk of contracting malaria, yellow fever, and dengue using yam or tarro root. You can use yam oil on your skin (mixed with other oils or skin lotions) or just eat yams regularly while you’re in high-risk regions. Native people of these tropical regions have been using yams this way for centuries and it works.

To clean up water that has micro-organisms, bleech or heavy metals in it, simply expose it to the sun for half a day (or a full day if partially cloudy). Put the water into a glass container with no lid and leave it in a safe, dust-free place in the sun. Glass milk containers work very well. According to many studies, the sun’s ultraviolet rays can kill up to 100% of the germs.
