Natural Remedies and Cures

[lludawg]

Do you prefer natural remedies and cures rather than taking prescription drugs? Personally, I have very sensitive, dry skin. I have tried many prescription creams and lotions but they don't seem to help my sensitive skin. They sometimes make my skin worse! I find that natural oils like olive oil and eating healthy in general helps more than prescribed creams. Let me know if you have the same thoughts about natural remedies and cures!

Some "natural" cures do little, if anything, to alleviate an illness, and of course, some do work and in a few cases, are better than just about anything else you can get your hands on.

And exactly can be said of the best of modern medicine. Sometimes the stuff from the pharmacy works, and sometimes all it does is upset your stomach and empty your wallet.


As for other stuff, my wife makes our bath and laundry soaps from mostly natural ingredients.

One thing I always mention is that creosote, asbestos, and crude oil are also "All Natural Products", and nobody lines up to get them to add to their herbal tea.
