Sore Throat is common during winters. The best thing to do is to gargle with warm salt water (1 teaspoon salt dissolved in one glass of water) at least a few times a day. It eases the scorching feeling in your throat. It works by improving the circulation around the throat area. It also cleans the pharynx, thus enabling your immune system to be more potent.
Gargling with an infusion made of henna leaves (mehandi leaves) also has been proven to heal a sore throat as it has antibacterial properties.

Without doubt, your feet are the most active part of your body, even more than your hands. Therefore it is very much essential that one must take extra care of their feet in order to avoid having foot problems.

Do not expose your feet to extreme climate i.e., extreme cold or extreme heat.

Wash feet daily in lukewarm water, blot dry without rubbing and apply a urea-based cream.

If your heels are very dry, use a pumice stone to slough off dry skin, cover feet with petroleum jelly and put a pair of socks before going to bed.

Pedicure your feet more often.

Use hot-cold water technique. Dip your feet in hot water and then after five minutes dip it in cold water. Do this for 20 minutes. This method improves the blood circulation.

Tips to get rid of Hangovers-II

The darker the brew, the more damaging it is for you. Choose vodka, white wine or other transparent drinks over anything dark. Dark drinks are full of tannins that your body has to work hard to break down.
Drink a little fizzy water and feel the bubbles reoxygenate your blood. This relaxes your body and allows it to get on with recovering.
Be a couch potato. Alcohol puts a strain on your body, especially your heart, liver and brain. Your body is working hard to pump the unwanted fluid out of your body. Exercise could, in extreme situations, cause cardiac arrest. You have full permission to do nothing. Stay in bed, read a book or operate the remote control… but very slowly.

Drink water. Dehydration’s the main reason for feeling bad after indulging. Alcohol is a diuretic – it encourages your body to lose fluids. So before, during and after your “session” drink at least three pints of water.
Before heading out, put a big bottle of water and some sliced fruit next to your bed. Later, every time you awake from a fitful sleep, take eight gulps of water and eat three slices of fruit. Stay sitting for the count of ten, then go back to sleep. Vitamins from the fruit pump antioxidants through you and sitting up briefly aids digestion and prevents acid reflux.
A healthy breakfast is the quickest route to recovery. Try yogurt, fresh fruits such as oranges, cranberries and bananas, and porridge and honey. No matter how tempting a fry-up is, greasy fat and oil will churn up your insides and sit in your stomach, making you feel more sluggish.
