SOLUTION TO PROBLEMS WE HAVE ALL COME IN CONTACT WITH...

PROBLEM: Bad Breath....
*salt water, fennel, licorice sticks or fresh parsley*
After each meal, sprinkle 1-2tsp into a glass of water and swish in your mouth for about 20 seconds; SPIT then repeat this three or four times.
WHY DO THIS? Bacteria thrive on food stuck in your mouth and this can cause bad breath. The salt rinse helps to remove those bits of food. Chewing on fennel, licorice or parsley after eating can sweeten your breath and mask that bad breathe smell!

PROBLEM: Hickey.....
*frozen spoon, pure aloe vera gel*
Coat the hickey with aloe vera then rub it in with the back of the spoon ( keep one in the freezer ) for about 10 minutes daily to speed up the fading of the hickey.
WHY DO THIS? A hickey is basically a bruise. Ice constricts blood vessels, so theres less bleeding under the skin; the aloe vera helps reduce inflammation.

PROBLEM: Gas/Bloating....
*peppermint oil, water*
Put a couple drops of peppermint oil in an 8oz glass of water and drink it. If discomfort continues then have another glass.
WHY DO THIS? Most painful gas occurs when stubborn bacteria in your intestine don't easily digest, resulting in spasms and pain. The menthol in peppermint oil helps ease those spasms and controls your discomfort.

PROBLEM: Menstrual Cramps.....
*about 1tbs dried raspberry leaves, decaffeinated tea bags (caffeine will make you cramp up more), and water.*
Steep raspberry leaves and tea bag in boiling water. DRINK UP!
WHY DO THIS? The heat relaxes the uterus and can prevent pain causing contractions. Raspberry leaves have been used for years to alleviate cramps, though doctors aren't sure why this plant is so soothing....
