Some advices!

Today I’m going to give you some advices that all I’ve learn with the passing of my maternity. It is known that alternative medicine has many benefits, one of the most important, in my opinion; it’s that you don’t need to attack your body with chemicals and harm your organism in a long term.

The things that I know about this topic, I’ve learned from my mom, from studying agronomy, and of course, for my personal search, because when my child get sick I give her traditional medicine, that doctors prescribes me, but, I also give her some infusions or ointments made by me, in order to hurry the recovery.

My daughter has been really susceptible to herpes, specifically on her mouth, so after seeing her suffer because she can’t eat  and of course because of the pain that this disease may cause, I search and I get really good information about the benefits of the olive, despite that  it does not exist an accurate scientific study  about the olive healing the herpes (although it works like an antiviral), it is known that could help to decrease the length of time that the virus acts, so I made to my daughter some kind of cream with the leaves of the olive  and with the liquid that its inside of the aloe Vera plant, with that combination you make sure that the herpes don’t last  that long, and with the aloe the wounds will dry faster. You must to apply directly on the sores.

Another plant that I use a lot is the Eucalyptus. The leaves of this tree have many properties, in which they are, expectorant action, antibacterial action and analgesic, as the most important. I use the leaves in infusions, but also, I give to my daughter so she can smell it. It helps a lot with cough and tonsillitis, because reduce the pain and calm the irritation of the throat. If the cough it’s too hard, I also put on the infusions avocado leaves, honey, lemon juice, ginger, and a little piece of garlic. That’s a bomb analgesic, antibiotic and anti-inflammatory tea. It’s really good actually, I recommended every time, because with that any cold can resist.

I hope I have been useful! J and please, don’t get sick in Summer, that’s  awful!
