Albert writes:- God has created so many plants on this earth but many of us are not aware the usefulness of these plants. I shall take few today. Many times we have cuts on our body and tend to rush to a doctor who will use all sorts of chemicals that will destroy our body. Tumeric powder if put on the wound or even burn will cure the wound in one or two days. Even burns. Onion can cure colds and fever. In case of flu do not rush to your doctor who will dose you with antibiotics and stereoids. Smash one or two onions and get the juice and pour it on your head and body. Just take few onions and smash them and rub the onions on the whole body starting from the head and tie the onion pulp on the head and sleep. Take rest the next day as you will be smelling of onions but fever and flu will dissappear the next day leaving no side effects or weakness. Garlic can reduce your blood pressure and so if you are suffering from high blood pressure take one or two flakes of garlic smash it and mix it with rice and swallow.Take care not to eat too much of garlic as it can cause piles/. If you are suffering from acidity instead of taking gellusil which contains aluminium and zinc harmful for the kidneys take cumin (jeera) and roast it on the pan and put the seeds in boiling water and let the water cool and drink it whole day. If you are having dry cough specially at nights then take little warm water and put one or two teaspoonful of honey and drink it. Give your child honey every morning and they will become strong. One teaspoon of cinnamon powder and one teaspoon of honey taken early in the morning can cure diabetes. Chillies kill germs in your body and corriander taken in food reduces heat in the body.Incase of motion take rice and fry it on a pan along with cumin seeds and pour it in boiling water and drink it the whole day.For cold you may take a piece of ginger smash it on the grinder and put the piece in four cups of water and add tulsi leaves. boil and drink the water the whole day. Your cold will come out of your body. Incase you have painful boil and has become septic and feel like going to the doctor who will lance it and allow the pus to flow and then you will have to take antibiotics . Instead take a leaf of aloevera which is called kantekor in konkani and roast it on a pan. allow it to cool a bit and tie it on the painful boil .You wait and see the next day your pus will ooze out by itself and relief you of all pain.
