Home Remedies

easy home remedies

Easy home remedies from the pantry, yard and garden. We’ll help treat symptoms, plus we offer tips and lifestyle changes to help you feel better every day.

Vinegar and baking soda are handy for many different ailments, from bug bites to stomach upset. Oatmeal provides soothing relief, inside and out. In just a few minutes, you can turn common pantry items into a poultice, belly soother, and more.

Many common herbs (and sometimes fruits and vegetables) have healing properties. Homemade herbal teas and extracts are simple to make, and much less expensive than commercial options.

Often we have habits that lead to aches and pains over time, but sometimes even minor changes in routine can make a big difference. The lifestyle tips are safe changes you can make to help you feel better.

Home remedies work great for kids, too, since many of them are food as well as medicine. (No worries with the little ones who still put everything in their mouths.)
