Try this easy way to break your craving for sweet things. When you find yourself drawn to the chocolate box, or the biscuit tin yet again, munch on a stick of celery instead, and watch your craving disappear.
I was brought up to dab a little honey on an infected cut; invariably the infection disappeared and the cut healed quickly. Later my mother used it to clear up a leg ulcer. Here’s what to do:
If you have a serious or persistent infection, please seek medical help.
If you’ve over-used your muscles – as I sometimes do, by digging out our compost heap, or climbing a mountain – there’s an easy way to avoid feeling sore the next day.
Run a bath – hot, but not too hot so the oil remains active. Before you get in, add 3-4 drops of marjoram oil. Relax in your bath for 10-15 minutes, enjoying the aroma. As all my family know, it works like a dream – your muscles will be fine in the morning!
Whenever you feel you need to boost your immune system, try this refreshing drink which is bursting with vitamin C and many other nutrients.
Simply blend a whole peeled orange with a desert spoon of goji berries. Yum!
