Using potato for home remedies
Following are 4 uses of potato as home remedies. Best yet, you don’t have to eat the hi carb spud to reap the benefits.
I love, love, really love potatoes. I’ve never had one prepared in any manner, flavored in any way, that I didn’t love. Mashed, fried, in stews, baked, chips, as a salad, with gravy, and in 2 family favorites cooked whole in tomato sauce or boiled with fresh parsley - I loved ‘em all. But, alas, too many can put you over the carb allowance for a day so I really need to exercise some self control. Well, a couple of servings a week wont do your weight any harm and even provide some good nutrition. What’s also nice about this humble spud is that it has several uses extending health and beauty. Of course, the treatments are pretty inexpensive too. * WARTS Rub a sliced potato over your unsightly wart. The reason why this works as an effective herb for warts is that they have a high potassium and Vitamin C content which helps heal wart. Just slice a thin section of potato and use the rest for fries or whatever. * INJURY You don’t have to buy those overpriced hot compress. Potatoes hold heat quite well. Just warm one up, wrap it in a dishcloth you have an effective compress. To make a cold compress, just put the potato in the freezer for ½ hour. * BURNS Use herbs for burns too. If you suffer a sudden burn while cooking or some other task, press a piece of raw cut potato against the burn. The potato will serve to soothe it and alleviate the pain. * FACIAL Want a great, cheap herbal facial? Just mix some room temperature plain mashed potatoes with lemon juice and some milk. Leave on your face for about 20 minutes before rinsing off to softer, more vibrant skin. Just think about the numerous, pricey products you have to purchase for the four issues addressed above. And all the time the treatments were stored away in a cool pantry. Ah, the power of herbs.
