Natural remedies for urticaria (hives) Anyone who has had it at least once knows that feeling. On an ordinary evening, after a meal out or a walk through a flowering park, a strange itch appears somewhere on the arm. You scratch absently, then notice a red spot. Within minutes, the spot grows, and around it pop up other pink, swollen welts with irregular edges that keep spreading and make you feel as if you brushed against nettles. That is exactly where the name comes from in Latin, urtica, meaning nettle. ...

Natural Remedies for High Cholesterol High cholesterol is a “silent killer” — it causes no pain, no symptoms, but every day it deposits plaques on artery walls, increasing the risk of heart attack and stroke. The good news is that diet and natural remedies can make a significant difference, especially for mildly to moderately elevated cholesterol. Our grandmothers, who ate garlic, walnuts, and oat porridge daily, had — without knowing it — an almost perfect dietary regimen for cardiovascular health. In nature’s pharmacy, we find scientifically validated ingredients that reduce “bad” cholesterol and increase “good” cholesterol. ...

Natural Remedies for Adult Chickenpox IMPORTANT: Chickenpox in adults is much more severe than in children. It can lead to serious complications: varicella pneumonia (up to 20% of adults develop a pulmonary form), encephalitis, hepatitis, bacterial superinfection of lesions, neurological complications. Mortality in adults is 15-25 times higher than in children. That’s why in adults, antiviral treatment with acyclovir, valacyclovir, or famciclovir is medically recommended and should be started in the first 24-72 hours after the rash appears. In pregnant women, immunocompromised people, or those with chronic diseases, chickenpox is a medical emergency. The natural remedies in this article are only for calming symptoms and supporting healing, never as sole treatment. ...

Natural remedies for dyslipidemia Dyslipidemia is a condition that, although painless and invisible, underlies most cardiovascular events: heart attack, stroke, atherosclerosis. It represents an imbalance of blood fats: too much bad cholesterol (LDL), too little good cholesterol (HDL), elevated triglycerides. The blood becomes, metaphorically speaking, “fattier,” and artery walls slowly narrow, invisibly, until one day a plaque ruptures and causes a crisis. The good news is that dyslipidemia responds exceptionally well to lifestyle changes and natural remedies. Romanian grandmothers, who ate oats, garlic, onions and artichoke tea daily, had, without knowing it, a complete pharmacy for lipids. Modern medicine has confirmed the value of these ingredients and added research on plants, supplements and special foods. ...
