【聊天優夠酷】10 Practical Home Remedies (I) 10種家用小秘方: 系列1－U KOOL ENGLISH OFFICIAL BLOG 台南市優酷英語文理官方網站

Last night I was checking some interesting articles about HOME REMEDIES and I was quite impressed by some of those easy and accessible ways to cure or relieve our physical pain. Let me share FIVE of the tips listed on the website and the other five later. Tell me what you think about them.

1. Home Remedy: Vodka

  It fixes: Foot odor(伏特加治腳臭?成本有點貴唷!)
Aww! Isn’t Vodka for cocktail and some crazy parties? And it’s kinda expensive to use it to get rid of your feet odor. But the article says that it’s okay to use “alcohol” instead because both “Vodka” and “alcohol” are antiseptic and they will dry the moisture of your feet quickly. That’s how it will kill the bad smell and fungus or bacteria on your feet. Well…most importantly…remember do NOT drink if you’re a minor (under 18 years old) or drink moderately even you’re an adult, OK?

2.   Home Remedy: Pencil
It fixes: Headaches(咬鉛筆治頭痛?我看還是原子筆比較不會斷。)
Perhaps it sounds silly to put a pencil between your teeth; it might actually relieve your headache and relax yourself! I myself haven’t tried this but I’ll bear in my mind and try next time! However, I still suggest that you go to see a doctor if your headache is driving you crazy. Do not ignore the pain because it might lead to BIG trouble. Take care!

3.   Home Remedy: Yogurt
It fixes: Bad breath(優格消口臭?如果是真的，還真可口呢!)
The bad smell of mouth is truly an annoying problem because it’s considered impolite and it leaves a bad impression on others. Yogurt now seems to be a good solution to this issue. But I am not sure about this one since I always have to brush my teeth after drinking some milk so I’ll have to see if it really works next time. But if you think it really works, feel free to share your experience with everyone here. OK?

4.      Home Remedy: Mouthwash
It fixes: Blisters(漱口水原本就能殺菌，但要省成本可以用鹽水。)
Ouch! This remedy sounds “Ouchy” to me because I know mouthwash like Listerine is really powerful in its antiseptic function and it kills the germs on the wound immediately. Well my mom always says that “salt” does the wonder on wounds as well but you’ll need to bear the pain. After all, “No pain, no gain!” Agree?

5. Home Remedy: Tennis Ball feet ache.jpg
It fixes: Achy Feet(舒緩腳底的肌肉，便宜又實用!)
After walking for a long while in your dress shoes or newly-bought footwear, I believe many people must have experienced how your feet arches act up and I just can’t tolerate the uncomfortable feeing down there! So simply use a tennis ball to massage your two feet curves and relieve the pain. Sounds soothing, doesn't it? But of course, try not to wear new shoes for important occasions because, trust me, you should always try on your news shoes for a couple of times first and then polish them brightly for the important event. Then you can save the trouble of using the tennis ball. How’s that? HA!
