This is probably BS, but what the heck. Thought I'd post it anyhow.

Did You Know That? Drinking two glasses of Gatorade can relieve
headache pain almost immediately -- without the unpleasant side
effects caused by traditional "pain relievers."

Did you know that Colgate toothpaste makes an excellent salve for burns.

Before you head to the drugstore for a high-priced inhaler filled
with mysterious chemicals, try chewing on a couple of curiously
strong Altoids peppermints. They'll clear up your stuffed nose.

Achy muscles from about of the flu? Mix 1 Tablespoon of horseradish
in 1 cup of olive oil. Let the mixture sit for 30 minutes, then
apply it as a massage oil, for instant relief for aching muscles.

Sore throat? Just mix 1/4 cup of vinegar with 1/4 cup of honey and
take 1 tablespoon six times a day. The vinegar kills the bacteria.

Cure urinary tract infections with Alka-Seltzer . Just dissolve two
tablets in a glass of water and drink it at the onset of the
symptoms. Alka-Seltzer begins eliminating urinary tract infections
almost instantly --even though the product has never been
advertised for this use. Alka-Seltzer Plus Cold Medicine is not the
same..and contains aspirin, which can cause stomach bleeding if you have ulcers.)

Honey remedy for skin blemishes... Cover the blemish with a dab of
honey and place a Band-Aid over it. Honey kills the bacteria, keeps
the skin sterile, and speeds healing. Works overnight.

Listerine therapy for toenail fungus... Get rid of unsightly
toenail fungus by soaking your toes in Listerine mouthwash. The
powerful antiseptic leaves your toenails looking healthy again.

Easy eyeglass protection... To prevent the screws in eyeglasses
from loosening, apply a small drop of Maybelline Crystal Clear nail
polish to the threads of the screws before tightening them.

Coca-Cola cure for rust... Forget those expensive rust removers.
Just saturate an abrasive sponge with Coca Cola and scrub the rust
stain. The phosphoric acid in the coke is what gets the job done.

Cleaning liquid that doubles as bug killer... If menacing bees,
wasps, hornets, or yellow jackets get in your home and you can't
find the insecticide, try a spray of Formula 409. Insects drop to
the ground instantly.

Smart splinter remover...just pour a drop of Elmer's Glue-All over
the splinter, let dry, and peel the dried glue off the skin.
The splinter sticks to the dried glue.

Hunt's tomato paste boil cure....cover the boil with Hunt's tomato
paste as a compress.
The acids from the tomatoes soothe the pain
and bring the boil to a head.

Balm for broken blisters...To disinfect a broken blister, dab on a few
drops of Listerine ... A powerful antiseptic.

Heinz vinegar to heal bruises... Soak a cotton ball in white vinegar
and apply it to the bruise for 1 hour. The vinegar reduces the
blueness and speeds up the healing process.

Kills fleas instantly. Dawn dish washing liquid does the trick.
Add a few drops to your dog's bath and shampoo the animal thoroughly.
Rinse well to avoid skin irritations. Goodbye fleas.

Rainy day cure for dog odor... Next time your dog comes in from
the rain, simply wipe down the animal with Bounce or any dryer sheet,
instantly making your dog smell springtime fresh.

Eliminate ear mites... All it takes is a few drops of Wesson corn
oil in your cat's ear. Massage it in, then clean with a cotton ball.
Repeat daily for 3 days. The oil soothes the cat's skin, smothers
the mites, and accelerates healing.

Quaker Oats for fast pain relief....It's not for breakfast anymore!
Mix 2 cups of Quaker Oats and 1 cup of water in a bowl and warm in
the microwave for 1 minute, cool slightly, and apply the mixture
to your hands for soothing relief from arthritis pain.

 

Cool I know a few of those remedies work, like the coke one.

 

First one has worked for me...Gatorade seriously is like a miracle cure.

 

Better yet, go clean out a chicken house with a pitchfork and your sinuses will be clearer than you can ever remember them being.

 

Or get some cayenne peppers that come in the juice and swab a little under your nostrils and eyelids. Or get a can of pepper spray and give a quick squirt in the air and then walk through it. Of course sometimes the cure is worse than the illness.

 

The gatorade thing works because a large percentage of all headaches are caused by simple dehydration. Try drinking a pint of water if you don't have any gatorade handy, or if you are on a diet. Gatorade has a lot of calories in it, which is good for athletes, and bad for couch potatoes.

 

thank you for the useful info ive seen a few of them work

 

not a bad compliation...
