It is not uncommon that after eating one of the Christmas periods, we find prey to nausea. Not even a coffee can take away this terrible feeling but infused with mint (or peppermint water) yes!

The property has a refreshing mint, digestive, carminative, and anti, antispasmodic which makes the remedy given against nausea, stomach pain and diarrhea also nervous. Is found easily in convenient tea bags from the supermarket and is also a purchase in anticipation of long journeys by car because if sipped throughout the journey – perhaps in a thermos – relieves symptoms of car sickness.

If we have a genuine vocation to the cultivation of plants on the balcony of the house, it is good to choose the most convenient solution that is already potted. An infusion is made preferably with leaves that are harvested only when in good condition and possibly made in the shade to dry in bundles and stored in glass jars away from light sources. An infusion is obtained with a teaspoon of leaves added to boiling water for a cup of tea or a tisaniera.

It is not necessary to add sugar. Recommended, instead, a teaspoon of honey, especially which of dandelion is a cure for the liver.

Christmas is approaching; Christmas shopping becomes a duty rather than a pleasure and if we are clogged from colds and cough, then turns into a real ordeal! We would like to stay in bed but can not. There is no way out or maybe yes … No, I am referring to those medicines immediately but so aggressive that a relapse within two or three days is usually very predictable, I’m talking about remedies to grandmother, to tell those who provoke laughter in general. But work…

I remember when I was a child at the first signs of cold, but especially cough; my grandmother obtains a large onion and after briefly browned in a pan covered me for half an hour fixing it with the chest of the transparent film from the kitchen and cherry on the cake, by heating it with a hot water bag. The positive effects of cataplasm onion were and are – because I put it in place yet – because of the enormous property expectorant, antiviral and extremely beneficial for the respiratory system of the onion.

Ginger is a herbaceous plant originating in the Far East but already known to the Romans not only for its aromatic properties, but for its many therapeutic properties. But how to best exploit these virtues? We have sore throat? Root ginger, a small slice and in the mouth for a few minutes. The relief will not be immediate but not to: ginger, in fact, is a potent anti-inflammatory which gradually heal our bad throat!

We can also combine the properties of ginger with those of garlic that we know is a natural antibiotic in a sort of miraculous potion: a decoction of ginger (a piece of root) and garlic (one clove) to boil for about ten minute. To enhance the beneficial effects, add the lemon juice (rich in vitamin C) and eucalyptus honey (indicated by the ailments of the upper respiratory system). Ginger also has properties appetizing, digestive, carminative, which make it especially suitable to counter nausea and gastro-intestinal disorders in this period are affecting many of us. We can also think of exploiting the benefits to the end of the meal to facilitate digestion, particularly in anticipation of eating Christmas!

It must be said, however, that the root of ginger is quite expensive and not maintained very long but worth it!
