Home Detox Remedies

A home remedy is a treatment to cure a disease or ailment that employs certain spices, vegetables, or other common items. Home remedies may or may not have medicinal properties that treat or cure the disease or ailment in question, as they are typically passed along by laypersons (which has been facilitated in recent years by the Internet). Many are merely used as a result of tradition or habit or because they are effective in inducing the placebo effect. A significant number, however, have been demonstrated to effectively treat ailments such as sprains, minor lacerations, headaches, fevers, and even the common cold.

One of the more popular examples of a home remedy is the use of chicken soup to treat respiratory infections such as a cold or mild flu, and according to recent studies, this may actually be effective. Other examples of medically successful home remedies include willow bark tea to cure headaches and fevers (willow bark contains a form of acetylsalicylic acid, also known as aspirin); duct tape to help with setting broken bones; and duct tape or superglue to treat plantar warts; and Kogel mogel to treat sore throat. Most home remedies are made up of things that are already in your home. "When using these treatments for children it is "much safer" than most over the counter products, that are offered stocked full of chemicals, that many of us can not even pronounce" (http://www.athomeremedies.net.NationalRemediesonchildre:theprosandcons). One of the most commonly used home remedies used is for coughs. This recipe is as follows: Equal parts, Honey, Lemon Juice, and Whiskey. We would not recommend anyone to use more than what is necessary. Recommended dosage for children under 12 is 2 tsp. of stated recipe (Miller, 2009). "I am in favor of home remedies if monitored by a physician" (Jackson MD, 2009).

In earlier times mothers were entrusted with all but serious remedies. Historic cookbooks are frequently full of remedies for dyspepsia, fevers, and female complaints.

Many European liqueurs or digestifs were originally medicinal remedies. In Chinese folk medicine, medicinal congees (long cooked rice soups with herbs), foods, and soups are part of the healing repertoire.

A common error is to confuse home remedies with homeopathic remedies. In fact, the two concepts are unrelated.
