  1. Natural Home Remedies - Who Really Invented Them and How Can They Help You? You might rely on any one of the many natural home remedies you have heard about when you have a mild ailment or a common disease. It is perfectly regular for people to rely on something they have at their disposal rather than run to the doctor or to the drugstore when they are not feeling nicely. There are also cases in which the standard treatment of a medical condition may be painful or not sufficient to relieve the symptoms so sufferers put to use home remedies to feel better. You can also use various homemade remedies for insect stings and for treating stains at home. In fact , this kind of home remedies are much more common than you might think. But where do the home remedies come from? Who came up with them? It is really worth defining what natural home remedies are first. These are

  2. different substances that are made from products commonly found in the home. These include natural herbs, spices, other cooking ingredients, vegetables and fruits. The medications are made through different processes. The instructions for preparation tend to be described in recipes. It is not known exactly who invented the homemade remedies that we know today. In the past, people did not possess medications like we do today. Sciences, such as chemistry and biology, were not invented. It is believed that many of the therapeutic properties of different plants and foods have been discovered accidentally. For instance, a person with a stomach upset decided to chew a great smelling plant and he felt better. In turn, others started using it as well. As people began to learn more about the vegetation, vegetables and fruits, they started making more complex recipes including various ingredients. In ancient and medieval times people did not find describe the medicinal properties or the recipe for one treatment to one another. Writing was invented, but it was accessible just to small privileged groups of people, so the recipes for the home remedies were passed by word of mouth from one person to another as well as from one generation to the next. Basically, these remedies are much like the folklore songs that we know from our ancestors. Somebody somewhere invented them, so they became widespread by word of mouth. With the invention of the first primitive machines for publishing books, the first cookbooks began to appear. They often contained various recipes for home remedies as well as for dishes and drinks. In some instances, the actual dishes were recommended as remedies. One notable example is the chicken soup that we use today to obtain relief from colds. Other remedies that were used for medicinal purposes solely have lost their original purpose to some extent. The popular Italian language liquors that are served as digestifs today were actually medications in the past. Indeed, they aid digestion and prevent bloatedness, gas and constipation. Another proof that they were originally invented as remedies is that the taste of some of the well-known digestifs is quite bitter. Some might think that the herbal remedies originating from China and India are actually remedios caseros, but this is simply not necessarily the case. Some were really invented by people and prepared at home, but others could only be prepared by healers who knew the exact ingredients and the necessary amounts

  3. as well as the methods for preparation. These special cures were actually not really home remedies. For instance, congee soup was used and is still used as a home remedy in China. On the other hand, the herbal remedies within traditional Chinese medicine are prepared using different herb ingredients depending on the individual condition of the sufferer. Acupuncture is another form of conventional treatment, but cannot be performed at home by a nonprofessional. Overall, it was the people who invented home remedies. The actual names from the inventors are not known, which is not the case with modern medications such as penicillin. With time the single ingredients often became changed by more complex recipes. As new plants were discovered and new substances for home use were invented, these people inevitably became used as remedies, provided that they were attributed medicinal properties. The recipes were passed from one era to the other. They have reached us through our grandparents and parents. The home remedies were used by our ancestors and we are utilizing them today.
