Old Time Remedies Still Worth A Mention

February 4, 2020April 25, 2020 Editor Comments Off on Old Time Remedies Still Worth A Mention

Despite all the advances in modern medicine, some natural, old-world remedies persist. Many people swear that these old-world remedies are far safer than the new world drugs and chemicals and more effective to boot.

Whilst we can’t ignore the fact that modern medicine has contributed greatly to our health and wellbeing, some old-world remedies seem to work well and may, dare we suggest, even work better than their modern counterparts. Here are a few we think are worth some serious consideration:

Gut Remedies

Food can be one of the best medicines you’ve ever had. It’s the fuel that gives your body nourishment and gives you the energy to do what it is you want to do. Many people don’t realize how much the food they eat affects their health and how they feel, but they do, dramatically.

Avoiding certain foods helps minimize inflammation while eating specific foods increases strength, health, and wellbeing. The food you eat affects everything in your body and your overall health. We haven’t got the time to go into the do’s and don’ts but recommend you research what medicinal powers your favorite foods hold and what pitfalls you might be missing because of your diet.

Herbal Remedies

The medicinal power of herbs is one of the most popular and well-known of the older remedies. Historically they had an herbal treatment for everything; they made topical ointments, oils, and ground herbs to treat everything from hair loss and rash to indigestion and fatal diseases.

While not everything the old world thought herbs could cure is actually true, there are several remedies that actually prove effective. Things like ginger and a combination of specific herbs to ease nausea or certain herbs to soothe rashes or other skin irritations. If you’re interested in the medicinal powers of herbal remedies, we recommend researching treatments that are proved scientifically to be effective.

Essential Oil Remedies

Essential oils are another great old-world remedy that still has relevance in the modern world. In the old world, essential oils and herbs were used to treat absolutely every ailment, including things like migraines, depression, and stress, too! Nowadays, we know these items aren’t the cure-alls they were once believed to be, but that doesn’t render them useless.

Essential oils like lavender, eucalyptus, etc. can help to soothe headaches and pains, ease stress and anxiety, and some can even help promote sleep. Diffusing essential oils and breathing them in deeply can offer some medicinal benefits; we recommend relying on scientific research when purchasing these, so you don’t get suckered into buying ones that aren’t actually effective.

Mind Remedies

The mind is way more powerful than we give it credit for. Now, in the old world, they thought the ailments that could be overcome with the mind were either made up in the first place or caused by a demon or some other spiritual antagonizer.

Nowadays, we know that our minds hold the power to overcoming or persevering through many conditions or ailments. A positive outlook and hope can make all the difference in a battle with a fatal illness. Positivity, focus, and determination can all help overcome limitations we once thought insurmountable. Your mind can be one of your most effective tools.

While some old-world remedies have been proven ineffective, they aren’t all malarky. We recommend that you do your research thoroughly so that you try only the old-world remedies that are known to be effective. We wish you the best of luck in your journey and applaud you on your decision to try a more natural alternative to medication.
