Clean Kidney : The Natural Way
There are two main variations of parsley that are used in cooking. The curly-leaf type has a milder flavour and is mainly used as a garnish to salads, soups or various meals.
The other form of parsley is the flat-leaf or Italian variety, which is much more flavoursome. For this reason it is often used in cooking, as it can withstand the cooking process whilst still retaining its flavour.
The garden variety of the Indian herb Parsley is usually bright green & hairless biennial plant. It usually grows from the seeds.
“Parsley is highly nutritious and research has proven that it is even beneficial to our health.”

Take a bunch of parsley and wash it clean. Cut it in small pieces and put it in a pot and pour clean water and boil it for ten minutes. Cool it down and then filter it. Pour in a clean bottle and keep it inside the refrigerator to cool.
Drink one glass daily and you will notice all salt and other accumulated poison coming out of your kidney by urination, also you will be able to notice the difference which you never felt before.
Benefits:

“AAA” – All About Aloevera

From most recent history, Mahatma Gandhi drank the inner gel from Aloe Vera, which helped him maintain a high energy level despite his often poor diet. When Mahatma Gandhi was asked what secrets he had that sustained him during his long fasts, he answered in his letter he wrote to his biographer:
“You ask me what were the secret forces which sustained me during my long fasts. Well, it was my unshakable faith in God, my simple and frugal lifestyle, and the Aloe whose benefits I discovered upon my arrival in South Africa at the end of the 19th century.”
Aloe vera is a stemless Succulent plant (water storing plant) which grows in dry conditions is widely used in herbal medicine/Ayurveda. Aloevera is obtained in the form of gel, juice and powdered forms. As it is non-toxic, it does not cause any adverse reactions when taken along with other drugs.
If you spend a fun filled afternoon at the beach on a lovely July day and bake for too long, you might end up with a nasty sunburn. If you forget to reapply sunscreen after you come out of the water, then you are even more likely to suffer the ouch factor.
Aloe Vera gel comes from the leaves of the plant and is very effective at soothing injured skin. The gel acts as an antibacterial agent because it contains aloectin B. It is this ingredient that stimulates the workings of the immune system.
If your skin gets sunburned, take a shower right away and then apply a generous amount of Aloe Vera gel to the affected areas. The Aloe Vera gel will act as a moisturizer and will seep into the layers of skin to begin to facilitate healing and skin repair.
Aloevera has been used since ancient times to treat various skin disorders. Take a leaf of aloe vera plant and remove the outer green covering.Collect the resulting white jelly-like flesh of aloe vera in a clean bowl. Mash the gel well and apply it on the affected parts of the skin. Keep on for few minutes. You can wash away the gel using cold water.
Aloe Vera has anti-microbial and pain-killing effects. They are also used in the treatment of acidity. It is a therapeutic healing agent which acts externally and internally. It acts externally as an astringent, anti-fungal and healing agent on the skin wounds. It also acts as an emollient (substances used for softening skin).
When it is used internally, it lowers the cholesterol levels and is used to correct digestive disorders like acidity by killing Helicobacter pylori (bacteria which cause acidity).

Ginger Root
Posted by Sw@i
What It Is ?
An edible tuber grown across Asia, West Africa, and the Caribbean.
Uses:
Ginger compounds are very effective in treating diarrhea, especially the Escherichia coli enterotoxin-induced diarrhea that’s such a common killer in the Third World. Ginger can also be used to treat nausea brought on by seasickness, morning sickness, or chemotherapy.
Side-Effects:
Ginger is recognized as safe by the FDA. That said, it can still cause heartburn and nausea if taken in excessive quantities. Remember : A little goes a long way.
Forms:
You can buy ginger by the root, or as a powdered extract. Biting into the root does a great job of clearing up a stuffy nose, at the minor cost of making your face burn like the fires of Hades. Ginger root can be bought at pretty much any grocery store.
Buying Tips:
Look for fresh ginger with smooth skins and a fresh, spicy fragrance. Wrinkles and cracks indicate the ginger is dry and past its prime.
Storage Tips:
Fresh, unpeeled gingerroot can be stored tightly plastic-wrapped in the refrigerator for two to three weeks. It can also be conveniently frozen for up to six months. When ready to use, simply slice off what you need and return the rest to the freezer.
Usage Tips:
• When peeling ginger, be careful to remove only a thin layer of skin. Use a vegetable peeler or sharp knife, or simply run a spoon along the ginger to scrape it away.
• Freezing ginger makes it easier to slice, grate and crush.
Getting rid of Blackheads
Here are some tips:
- Mix some natural lemon juice and cinnamon and apply it to your face for few minutes. Wash it off with warm water. It helps remove dead skin cells as well as blackheads and also makes your skin soft and smooth.
- Make a paste using fenugreek (methi) leaves. It treats all types of acne (including blackheads of course). Use this coat for 10 to 15 minutes and wash with warm water.
- Mix lemon juice with same amount of rose water. Place it on your blackheads for 30 minutes every day, and this should be done in about two weeks.For removing blackheads, taking steam would be beneficial, as steam opens the blocked pores. After taking steam, rub the affected region with a towel for 1-2 minutes. Thereafter, splash it with cold water, closing all the open pores.
- Grate or slice potatoes into chips and apply onto blackheads, whiteheads, pimples or any other acne. Remove potatoes only when they’re totally dry. Cut garlic and rub it on the areas needed. It smells I know, but what wouldn’t we do for the sake of beauty, right?Wash you face with natural lime juice and milk mixture.
Drink Water
Hydration is tremendously important for overall health. Soda has absolutely ZERO nutritional content; it’s like pouring a punch of sugar and syrup into your cup. Instead, fill it with life-replenishing water. It may taste plain at first if you’re coming off of a heavy soda-drinking streak, but you’ll soon find yourself addicted to it. 10 glasses per day is optimal, how many have you been getting lately? \_/ \_/ \_/
Smile more often :D
Whenever you get a grin on your face, your brain is releasing serotonin, the happy hormone. Smiling is the natural way to force yourself to be happy. Many people even smile for five minutes straight in the morning to get themselves in a great mood for the day. It is a very powerful tool that is utilized less and less as we grow older and need happiness more than ever. Just remember that while happiness leads to smiles, smiles also lead to happiness.
