Arthritis Pain Relief - BY LORRAINE THE "OLD" HOMESTEADER

My doctor told me to try Glucosamine with chondroitin,1500 mg daily for my arthritis. I had pain so bad I could hardly get up in the morning. It is like a miracle. It takes about a month for it to work and it really does! This is an over the counter medicine found in the vitamin area. I found it at Walmart. It cost 30.00 for 240 tablets which is only 5.00 monthly. Ask your doctor and try it. I feel almost 100% better and no dangerous medicine to worry about!

Aloe Vera - BY SUE-ANNE H.

This remedy is good for anything but you should take it on a regular basis, get a Aloe Vera leaf from your garden (if you have one), any size will do, slice the leaf down the middle to expose the gel inside, cut the gel from the skin and only the gel, (discard the skin and thorns) puree the gel with a small amount of juice and a banana ( helps to disguise the flavour), then drink this liquid, a couple of times a week, only once daily though or you will get diahorrea.

Preventing Burn Marks - BY EXECUTIVEBABE

Hi, I just discovered this site and I am already hooked. One time I was curling my hair, because my hands/hair and curling iron handle was so greasy, it slipped out of my hand. It fell on my shoulder (which was exposed) at the time, I also burned my ears a few times. I hurt really bad and my skin turned red and purple right away. I looked in my medicine cabinet for the burn ointment. Well... I thought it was that. I realized afterwards that it was Preparation H that i had used. At first I freaked, but then I notice the pain eased a whole lot. By the following day my marks were mostly faded. I have extremely sensitive skin and nothing ever goes away, especially that fast. But I've gotta tell you.... THIS REALLY WORKS ON BURNS. I worked for me and I hope it works for you.

Heartburn Relief - BY JUDY T.

I really love your newsletter, and I do have something that I thought might be helpful to those reading. This is a tip that has helped me immensely for heart burn and acid reflux episodes. When I chew two sticks of gum after eating, it seems to increase the neutral enzymes and aids in digesting while keeping acid down. I get results immediately and have been able to stop taking acid reducers. I am not sure why this works, but it is pretty amazing and easier on my stomach.
