Overpowering Winter Blues

Winter is approaching and it is a right time to be prepared to handle the winter blues. This is the season that brings exciting holidays but it also comes with the lowest average temperature, affecting our health. Given below are some simple, natural and homely measure to handle winter blues effectively. The cures come right from your kitchen – natural, inexpensive and most effective.

Skin Care
The skin becomes drier during this season and it needs nourishment. Following are some handy tips to protect your skin in the winter.

• Make use of mild soaps or cleansers to clean your skin followed by a daily moisturizer. Use the paste of ground green gram powder instead of a soap to work your way to a soft and supple skin.
• Rub cucumber slices, aloevera gel, plain lip balm or petroleum jelly on the chapped skin and lips.
• Use sunscreen lotion or lavender oil that helps preventing the skin from sunburn since the sun rays affect the skin most during this season.
• Massaging you skin with Jasmine, Wheat Germ, Sesame or Almond oil, before bath is the best thing you can do to keep the skin equally moisturized.
• Packs of honey and milk, mashed avocado or mashed papaya with wheat germ oil provide appropriate nourishment to the skin.
• Olive oil can work wonders in reinforcing moisture to your hair. Treat your legs by adding a few drops of oil in the water that you use to soak them.
• Drink plenty of water to keep the body hydrated. Water plays an important role in keeping your skin alive. Have adequate sleep; irregular sleeping schedule has adverse effects on the overall health. Expose yourself to fresh air and eat well-balanced diet.
• Wear gloves and other protective coverings before you move out of home. Woolen sweaters or overcoats prove a good shield in this season.

Effective Home Remedies for Cough, Cold and Flu to maintain good Health Cough, cold and flu are the frequently observed health problems during winter. Handle them effectively with your regular kitchen ingredients.

• Gargling with warm salt water is used mainly for sore throats, but it is also effective when you have colds. The warm salt helps wash away germs in your throat and make the healing process a lot quicker.
• Ginger is excellent for nauseas and works as a digestive herb. A combination of ginger juice and honey helps revealing sore throat. Start your day with a ginger tea or basil tea, which have medicinal value and work as a preventive measure for cold and cough. Also, few sips of honey and carrot juice help curing throat infection.
• Garlic consists of anti-viral and anti-fungal activities that cure the cold. Consumption of hot garlic soup or garlic juice mixed with onion juice in hot water works as a magic for cold and flu.
• In case of extreme Dry Cough, boil down around 100 grams of lady's finger in half liter hot water and drink up. Rich in mucilage, lady's finger acts as an effective drug. You can also take steam of this concoction.
• A hot curry made by tamarind, butter and pepper also helps to clear the nasal passage and gives relief from cold. For those, who prefer non-veg, hot Chicken Soup is considered as one of the most beneficial of all of the hot liquids that cure cold and cough. Also, hot foods like spicy curries, mustard sauce help to clear the nasal blockage.
• Dietary sources of vitamin C include fruits and vegetables, particularly citrus fruits such as lemons, oranges, grapefruit that aid curing symptoms of cold. Detoxifying lemon juice is very useful during cold. Eating an apple everyday provides basic nutrition and protection to your body and practice it more than reading it as an old proverb.
• Drink a mixture of hot milk with a spoonful of turmeric. This old remedy aids to relief throat infection.
• Use of bitter gourd root paste with honey and basil juice is a good remedy for cold.
• A natural antibiotic like Goldenseal is beneficial when there is greater nasal infection. Peppermint candy and herbal teas are also Very Good at helping to fight with cough and cold.
• Eucalyptus or thyme oil are helpful when inhaled in steam and can also be used as natural vaporizers. Regular handwash with a mild sanitizer also serves the purpose. Follow it with almond oil or baby cream.

• Headaches are common during the season of flu and cold. Dab the mixture of peppermint and vegetable oil on the forehead to get relief from annoying headaches.
• Earache, is usually a result of infection and it can be cured by several homely remedies such as putting drops of ginger juice or basil juice in the ears, taking a hot water bath that helps melting the vax accumulated in the earsand helps lessening the ear pain.
