Sore throats can really put a downer on your days.
Everyone usually reaches for the NyQuil, but there is a natural remedy to them.
It's not always the safest to use medication, whether it be over the counter or prescription.
Stuffiness and a sore throat can be fixed with a nice cocktail of rum and honey.
Use a few ounces of hot water and add a tablespoon of rum and the juice of a lemon and 3 teaspoons of honey.
It is well known that a small amount of alcohol can help relieve pain and relax you.
In fact, night time cold medicines have a considerable amount of alcohol in them.
Honey is an antiviral and it coats the throat, which can be very relieving.
It also has a soothing effect.
A second natural remedy is for upset stomach issues.
We all are familiar with aloe vera.
We think of it as a natural remedy for a sun burn, but not often is it thought of as a pain reliever.
Not only can you rub this plant on sun burns and severe tans, it can also be ingested to calm an upset stomach.
It can also help with constipation.
Aloe gel may help to relieve ulcers and the pain that associated with them.
It may also help to improve irregularity.
Obviously, it is easy to find aloe vera for sun burns and tans.
If you are searching to buy some for tummy issues, make sure it is the type that can be used for internal use.
You can find the right kind at natural food stores, such as Whole Foods and others.
