Natural Remedies You Can Make At Home
Natural remedies like herbal tinctures, salves, teas and other remedies you can make at home fascinate me. Sometimes homemade natural remedies can be more effective than their over-the-counter pharmacy counterparts.
Take this homemade calendula salve (recipe below), for example. More natural than triple antibiotic ointments made with petroleum jellies, this is one of many natural remedies you can make at home to sooth minor scrapes or cuts and help them heal up quite nicely. At least, that’s been my experience. Your mileage may vary. My family, for one, believes that this calendula salve works more quickly than triple antibiotic ointment to help heal minor scrapes and cuts. In fact, when my boys get minor injuries while at play, they don’t want anything else. (Okay, maybe a hug.) Why are they so attached to it?
Because they helped make it! That’s the glory of natural remedies you can make at home. Your children are more willing to use them than “normal” medicine because they’ve helped concoct them!
