I love to paint my nails, and recently, because I never let the toe nails "breath," I had a bit of a fungus and yellow nails. A friend told me about a home remedy for the situation:

Soak you toes in peroxide, and then put a dab of Vicks, on each toe making sure it gets under the nails and on top the nail.." Ok so I thought what was the worse that can happen. You know what this home remedy worked, my toe nails are clear of yellow and fungus. I went on search of other home remedies and found the site http://www.home-remedies-for-you.com/.

Used for centuries, home remedies tap everyday products and foods to alleviate common ailments and have been used to treat illnesses from eczema to indigestion. So lets start with bad breath--also known as halitosis--is a condition marked by odors emanating from the mouth. Bad breath may be treated via home remedies. Add 1 tsp. of fenugreek seeds to a small pot of water and allow it to simmer for approximately 15 minutes. Strain the mixture and consume.
Nibble on cardamom. These seeds are said to be effective at freshening the breath. Gnaw on guava. Unripe guava contains malic, oxalic, tannic and phosphoric acids, in addition to calcium, oxalate and manganese. These elements make it useful in improving bad breath and the overall health of your mouth. Sip some juice. Raw, unpasteurized vegetable juice can be useful in treating halitosis. Many juices available in stores are pasteurized to promote a long shelf life. Buy a vegetable juicer and make your own juice at home. Pick parsley. Boil 2 cups of water. Then add several chopped sprigs of parsley, along with 3 whole cloves. Allow the mixture to steep, then strain it and use it as a mouthwash or gargle.

My mother always gave me honey and lemon as a kid. You'll notive that Hall's has a honey-lemon flavored cough drop, so there must be something to it!

I've been using hydrogen peroxide,afew drops,in each ear to get rid of earaches colds and flu.Just take 3% H2O2 in an eye dropper,lay on your side,put a few drops in your upper ear and listen to the germs oxidize.(die)After 5 minutes drain your ear onto a towel.Repeat process in the other ear. Do this every hour until symptoms vanish.
