Lice Home Remedy

                Mayonnaise lice home remedy seems so simple that it is actually not used often although it is a shame: it works wonders! Seems like this is the time of year that most of our kids get lice in their heads, usually they catch these lice from other children at school.. This home remedy can be very useful..

Before you hear about mayonnaise lice home remedy, it is important to know a bit about lice. These nasty little creatures love humans and are especially fond of warm areas of the neck and head. Since they like blood, they try to stay as close to the scalp as possible. And because they use six legs to attach themselves firmly, it can be really difficult to detach them.



The female head lice lay eggs (nits) whose colors range from white to gray. Because they camouflage themselves so well, if your hair is brown and your hair is infested with gray lice, removing them is a pain! Same thing with white ones if your hair is blond. Once the incubation period is over, nits turn into baby nymphs and then to lice.



Why is this important for mayonnaise lice home remedy? 2 reasons: 1) Mayonnaise smothers lice and 2) makes it easy to remove nits (usually the most painstaking process of all).



What do you need to make mayonnaise lice home remedy?



A jar of regular mayonnaise.



How to apply it?



Scoop out as much mayonnaise as you need to cover the scalp and the hair thoroughly. Apply it liberally. When all the hairs and scalp are covered, you can place a clear plastic bag over your hair so the mayo doesn’t drip. Leave it on for a couple of hours.



Use a regular shampoo to rinse the hair off. It might take several application of shampoo to remove the mayonnaise lice remedy. When done, using a fine tooth comb, comb the hair until you get all the nits and lice out.



Another recipe I know of calls for adding apple cider vinegar to the mayo. I know of vinegar as a good lice remedy in a different recipe but don’t see why you shouldn’t try it mixed with mayo.



When making a mayonnaise lice remedy, be persistent. Lice are indeed tedious to get rid of, but this recipe offers an alternative to chemicals-filled commercial shampoos available.

They're Better Than the "Hair of the Dog that Bit You!"

                   



So, you've had a few too many alcoholic drinks and you're feeling kind of woozy. That's because, once it's consumed, alcohol is quickly dispersed into a person's bloodstream. It then travels throughout the entire body. Drinking too much alcohol can cause slurred speech, blurry vision, difficulty in walking, slow reactions, impaired judgment, and many other side effects. Now, you need homemade cures for a hangover.



One of the most popular cures for a hangover is to drink hot, black, caffeinated coffee. The caffeine will actually help dull a pounding headache. It will also rev up your body and work with the alcohol to further dehydrate it. Instead of drinking black coffee for your hangover, try drinking a large glass of fruit juice instead. The sugar content in fruit juice will aid in your body's attempt to get rid of the alcohol. Fruit drinks also contain Vitamin C. Vitamin C is an anti-oxidant that will also do the same job.



Since alcohol actually dehydrates your body, one of the best homemade cures for a hangover is to simply drink plenty of water. Water will not, as it's believed, make you feel drunk again. Instead, water will rehydrate your body and help flush the alcohol and other toxins out of your system faster.



Some people recommend drinking Gatorade(TM) or Pedialyte(TM) instead of plain water. The Gatorade contains sodium which will help get your body hydrated again. Pedialyte contains electrolytes. Your body needs electrolytes in order to maintain cell impulses.



If your stomach can tolerate it, another of the most efficient homemade cures for a hangover is to eat a good, healthy meal. Lean steak, eggs, toast, and hash browns can help cure the typical hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, that drinking too much alcohol can cause. A good meal can also help replenish valuable vitamins and minerals that your body needs.



Stay away from fatty or fried foods. They can easily upset your already-nauseated stomach. Not only that, but your liver is already trying to rid your body of the alcohol. It doesn't need fatty or fried foods to deal with on top of that. Source:  Kassidy Emmerson
