HOW TO LOSE BELLY FAT WITH HOME REMEDIES
—————————————————

Step 1
Remove the things in your diet that stress your liver and lower your metabolism, and reduce your calorie intake. A stressed liver cannot properly metabolize fat, says nutritionist Ann Louise Gittleman, Ph.D., author of “The Fat Flush Plan.” Liver stressors include processed foods, too many carbohydrates in general, all forms of sugar, artificial sweeteners, caffeine, trans fats and soda. Cut 500 to 1,000 calories from your daily diet to lose 1 to 2 lbs. weekly, the safest and longest-lasting weight loss rate, according to the Mayo Clinic.

Step 2
Sip lemon or lime juice in hot water daily. These both invigorate the liver and help to liquefy fat, which aids in flushing it from your system more quickly. Getting enough water in general is important. Mild dehydration can cause your kidneys to call on your liver for help, reducing the liver’s ability to burn fat. This can lead to fat deposits, often in the belly.

Step 3
Consume your omega-3 fatty acids. These target tummy fat, Gittleman says. Fish oil is one great source. Take 6g, which is an overflowing tablespoon, or eat salmon or mackerel twice a week. Also chomp on chia. This ancient super seed is high in protein, is a good source of B vitamins, has calcium and is a high source of antioxidants.
Another vegetative source is flaxseed oil

Home remedies for shinbone pain
***********************************
Ice the injured shin to bring down swelling and dull the pain. Use a flexible ice pack or a bag of frozen vegetables and keep it on for up to 20 minutes. To make sure you don’t get frostbite, put a towel between the ice pack and your skin.
Instead of an ice pack, you can apply a lump of ice. Freeze water in a foam cup, then peel away the cup and press the solid ice to the shin. As the ice melts, just peel away more of the cup. If you use this method, however, limit applications to under 8 minutes at a time. And give the chilled skin a chance to warm up before you apply that ice a second or third time.
Sit or lie down with your knees slightly bent. Flex the foot of the painful leg up and down, in and out, and in circles. Your leg should remain still. Repeat each motion 10 times.
For a leg stretch that relieves shin-splint pain, start out in a seated position on the floor. Keep the painful leg outstretched, and the knee slightly bent. Loop a towel around the ball of your foot and, with the knee still bent, gently pull the towel toward your body. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, then relax. Repeat three times.
As a follow-up, stand and place your hands against the wall at eye level. Keep your painful shin back, with the heel on the floor, and the uninjured shin forward. Turn your back foot slightly inward, as if you were pigeon-toed. Slowly lean into the wall until you feel a stretch in the back of your calf. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds.
Repeat the same standing stretch, but this time cross the back leg behind the front one so most of your weight is on the outside edges of your feet. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds.
In a standing position, with one hand against a wall or chair for balance, bend the knee of your injured leg and grab the top of your foot. Pull the toes of that foot toward the heel to create a stretch in the front part of your shin. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds. Repeat three times.
Holding a chair or counter for balance, rise up onto your toes, hold for five seconds, then come down slowly. Repeat 10 times. Then do two more sets of 10.
Alternate walking on your heels for 30 seconds with 30 seconds of regular walking. Repeat four times.

A good way to get protein is from lean meats, milk, cheese, yogurt, eggs and soy products. You can also use a protein addition with her milk if she doesn’t get too many of the foods listed above. About 120g of protein every day is ideal.
Calcium is available in all milk products and spinach is also a very good source. So make sure your child gets at least two servings of dairy every day and one serving of spinach
Make sure your kid gets to stretch a lot. Stretching exercises like yoga, basketball, and pushups (although these may be tough to do at first) will all help stretch her spine. Other activities like swimming, cyling, kicking, jumping and skip will thicken cartilage and increase bone density.
Don’t trust any of the tonics and tablets on the market that will promise to make your kid taller. The only thing that will help is a good planned diet supplemented by stretching and aerobic exercises.
Finally if your child does not cultivate to be tall, it really does not matter. Beauty comes in various shapes and sizes.
Don’t talk to her ceaselessly about her height. This may affect her self confidence. Just quietly go about making sure she is doing the whole thing she needs to and cross your fingers.

Home remedies for Ear wax Removal
**************************************
Baby oil works great. Place several drops in your ear then lie on your side for a good 15-20 minutes, then repeat the other side. Then take a hot bath with warm, soapy water and submerge so water enters your ear canal for a good ten minutes. Lastly, take a shower head or syringe and spray water into your ear to rinse. Works wonderfully.

Home Remedies for Ear Congestion
************************************
plugged ear due to mucus and congestion from a bad cold. I found two ways:
1.)INHALE MINT & SALT STEAM: Fill a thermos (I used a 16oz lunch thermos) with boiling water. Then add 1 Tbsp. of salt and a handful of mint leaves (salt and mint amount may vary depending on your thermos size) Close the thermos for about 5 minutes. Afterwards, remove the thermos lid, place a bath towel over your head to cover your face, and hold the thermos under your nose. Gently inhale the steam. Be careful not to burn yourself! Inhale the steam for 10-15 minutes; do this once in the morning and once before bedtime. After you’re done, be sure to wash your face because the steam has traces of salt in it.
2.)GURGLE OIL: I know this may seem a bit disgusting, but it works! This method actually originated from India. Gurgle 1-2 Tsp. of oil (olive oil, sunflower oil, etc.) for as long as you can. Gurgling moves the muscles that will help remove mucus. Do this during the daytime when you can sit down for a while. If you can’t handle the taste of water, try gurgling water (not juice, coffee, etc.)
After trying these methods for one day, my ear was about 70% better. By the second day of repeating these tactics, my ear was essentially healed!
