Wheat magic

Wheat is an excellent source of iron and phosphorous. The outer layer of the barn provides fiber which gives bulk and regulates the absorption and excretion of nutrients from the body. The germ contains riboflavin, thiamine, vitamin E and trace minerals such as zinc, copper, iron and magnesium. Wheat is the best nourishing food which can be easily given to patients and even babies.


 Here are some ways in which we can use wheat to treat some common ailments:

Wheat for treating boils:Boils having pus can be easily treated at home without the help of a surgeon’s knife. Pound a little Alse(you can get it at a shop) to a fine powder. Take a tbsp of wheat flour and fry it in a little oil to a golden color. Add ground Alsi along with tbsp of water. Keep on stirring until the mixture turns thick. Remove from fire and place it in a clean strip of cloth. When the mixture turns bearably hot spread it over the cloth and bandage it around the boil. Within a day of two the boil will burst giving instant relief. Clean the boil with warm water to which a little boric has been added and then apply sulphur ointment and bandage. Clean the wound and apply the ointment daily till the wound heals.


Wheat for treating scars:To remove scars roast wheat on fire till it turns black. Grind to paste. Put in a thin cloth and squeeze out the oil. Apply on the scars regularly for relief. Even itching disappears with this oil.

Wheat for curing chest painMix together wheat, barn and coarse salt in equal quantities, heat the mixture, put in a clean cloth and foment the chest for relief.

Wheat for tonsils painPrepare a halwa with wheat flour and water, put in a cloth and foment the tonsils with it to get relief from pain.

Wheat for treating acne or pimplesMake a fine paste of whole wheat. Apply this paste on pimples. Keep for 1 hour. Then wash off. Do this regularly.

    Wheat grass juice is the extracted juice from young (5 - 10 inch) wheat plants. The juice is touted for many health benefits due to its high concentrations of Chlorophyll, enzymes, vitamins (especially B's) and minerals. Another benefit of drinking wheat grass juice is a significant energy buzz, due to the very high concentrations of B vitamins, that lasts several hours.

    A typical portion is two fluid ounces, requiring the juicing of 1/3 to 1 square foot of wheat grass. The juice has a pungent, sweet odor/taste which is an acquired taste. It may be drunk straight, or mixed with other juices, such as carrot or apple.
    Wheatgrass juice should always be consumed immediately after juicing.

Pore shrinking mask recipes from home

A face with large open pores when seen from close quarters doesn’t look so good. While it’s quite common for oily skins to have a tendency towards open pores, an attack of pimples also leaves ugly scars and open pores behind.  Even though the scars may fade away after some time, open pores appear to be more obstinate and hardly show any signs of shrinking.  Age also takes its toll by giving an uneven/pigmented tone to the skin and making the open pores more prominent. Heredity could also be a contributing factor in determining your pore size. It’s not easy to get rid of these pores or shrink them completely or permanently using serums, lotions or face packs. Even resorting to drastic chemical/surgical procedures at the dermatologist’s isn’t quite capable of giving satisfactory results.  Nevertheless, you can try and minimize their appearance at least temporarily with clever makeup and a few natural skin care masks such as these: * Cleanse your face with a mild ...
