...early years,the old folks didn't know why their boiled herbs worked,but only that they did.Many cultures such as the Indian, Japanese, Mexican, African and many others, were deeply rooted in folk medicines, folklore, voodoo,or old folktales. They didn't know anything about test tubes or pills, but there was the boiling of the roots and leaves;some were even smoked. This form of healing has laid the foundation for what is, and what will be,in the medical Future.My study of Old medical documents;one being an old home medical book dated 1926 by William Evans M D.,shows a close relationship between traditional healing and folk healing. This old book is truly an antique and covers a wide range of old cures like: home remedy for ringworm, pink eye, sore throat, tooth ache, how to get rid of pimples, hives, the history of small pox, scarlet fever, scurvy,malaria symptom, rickets disease,eczema and many other interesting subjects.Many ingredients that were contained in old home remedies are used in todays prescription Drugs. Though these ingredients may be listed under some fancy scientific name, the end result is the same. The Old folk,as they were sometimes called! Would probably change some of these names to something simple like vinegar, corn meal, pine tar, onions, baking soda, salt, peppers, tree bark, roots, corn silk, sassafras,dew berry roof, aspirin; Why aspirin? Because it has been long used as a pain killer,and though mostly...

...Effectiveness of Household Objects as Pimple Remover Chapter 1: Background of the Study Pimples are every adolescent’s worst enemy. They hurt when you touch them. They are painful to pop. They are red and leave ugly scars on every face. The 20-minute pimple remover is my investigatory project where I will use simple home remedies to remove pimples within 20 minutes. It is a combination of the sea salt method (where salt is used to dry up the pimple) with honey as a natural antiseptic. This experiment includes common household ingredients and objects such as salt, water, ice, honey, cotton balls and a small cup. Salt is used to dry up the upper part of the pimple, thus removing the redness. Honey, as I’ve stated in the previous paragraph, is a natural antiseptic and soothes and heals the skin. Honey is also a natural moisturizer. It is also anti-bacterial, which means it helps with wound healing and it even keeps the skin hydrated. And ice because it diminishes the pores thus, constricting the blood vessels beneath the skin of the pimple. (Ice is gently rubbed around the acne-infected area.) Problem Are common household objects such as salt and honey effective pimple removers? Hypothesis Salt and Honey will remove the pimple. Independent Variables Salt and Honey Dependent Variable The presence of the pimple. Control Group Age of the person the experiment was acted upon must be between 12-16 Only the pustule type of pimple is acted on Significance of...

Don't forget to drink lots of water to make your skin glow! 3. 3 Always wear sun screen, sunglasses and a hat when you go out in the sun. Simply gobbling up lots of fruits and veggies with sun protecting vitamins won't keep you safe. Even if you have darker colored skin, you need to wear sunscreen. Choose a sunscreen that is 30 or 40 SPF and apply it evenly to your skin. Try to use a face friendly, water resistant sunscreen. Don't apply a whole chunk of sunscreen or you'll be shining all day. Apply just enough and follow the directions. * Try to avoid the sun at harsher times, such as the afternoon-around 10AM to 4PM. When the sun is at its worst, it's a real danger to your skin. It might be a good idea to wear lip balm with sunscreen in it as well. Choose a broad...

...22 Home Remedies for Acne & Pesky Pimples Your skin is your friend. You like your skin. Your skin likes you. It protects you from the elements and literally keeps you together. You in turn do your best to protect it from any kind of damage. Then, one day, acne rears its ugly head, and you suddenly hate your skin. What do you do then? Turn to harsh chemicals, and expensive scrubs? That’s a fine way to thank a friend who’s been there for you since day one. Your epidermis isn’t at fault here-it can’t help that your hormones are causing all that extra sebum to clog up your pores, or the fact that bacteria is running rampant. If your skin could talk it would say something along the lines of “patience, grasshopper. Treat me right and I shall repay you in kind.” That’s just a guess, anyways. The point is, natural acne remedies are a good way to get rid of it, or at least hold it at bay. They make you step back and really figure out what’s going on with your skin, and how to work with it. Chances are, your skin will repay you in kind for not simply ravaging it with strange chemicals-and your wallet will probably thank you too. 1. Apply some apple cider vinegar Apple cider vinegar is a powerhouse when it comes to acting as an acne remedy. Why? It kills off the bacteria that may be causing all the trouble in the first place. It also becomes alkaline, and balances the pH of your skin, which in turn makes it harder for bacteria to thrive. To top it off it’s an astringent, like lemon...

...Stem cells: What they are and what they do Researchers believe stem cells offer great promise for new medical treatments. Learn about stem cell types, current and possible uses, ethical issues and the state of research. By Mayo Clinic staff You've heard about stem cells in the news, and perhaps you've wondered if they might help you or a loved one with a serious disease. You may wonder what stem cells are, how they're being used to treat disease and injury, and why they're the subject of such vigorous debate. Here are some answers to frequently asked questions about stem cells. Why is there such an interest in stem cells? Researchers hope stem cell studies can help to: * Increase understanding of how diseases occur. By watching stem cells mature into cells that eventually become bones, heart muscle, nerve cells, and other organs and tissue, researchers and doctors may better understand how a variety of diseases and conditions develop. * Generate healthy cells to replace diseased cells (regenerative medicine). Researchers hope they can train stem cells into becoming specific cells so that those specialized cells can be used to regenerate and repair diseased or damaged tissues in people. People who might benefit from stem cell therapies include those with spinal cord injuries, type 1 diabetes, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, heart disease, stroke, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and multiple sclerosis. Stem cells could also be grown to become new...

...Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thailand, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn common, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscommunication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to assist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used...

But it is much more…People are presented as [Fadiman] saw them, in their humility and their frailty—and their nobility.” —Sherwin B. Nuland, The New Republic 3/462 “Anne Fadiman’s phenomenal first book, The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down, brings to life the enduring power of parental love in an impoverished refugee family struggling to protect their seriously ill infant daughter and ancient spiritual traditions from the tyranny of welfare bureaucrats and intolerant...
