I have always believed in home remedies and if not homeopathic ...

Untill I got pregnant I never ever had allopathic medicines..

I am not against any type of medical practices but India is a country with rich diversity and age old beliefs passed on through generations...

Today thought of sharing some remedies which have been passed by my dadi and par dadi...
PLEASE CONSULT DOCTOR IF ANY DOUBT..

PLEASE DON'T USE HONEY, SUGAR, SALT FOR KIDS BELOW ONE YEAR OLD..

Small babies, elders tend to catch cold and cough often even with slight change in weather..

So for this I am going to share a massage oil receipe...

Hing 1tbsp

Ajwain 2tbsp

Black urad dal 2tbsp

Methi seeds 2tbsp

Black jeera 2tbsp (in our regional language we call it mangrela)

Turmeric powder (I avoid it since it turns clothes yellow)

Method

1. Roughly discard the peel of garlic..

2. Now in a grinder put all the ingredients except oil and roughly mince it ...

3. Heat an iron vessel or earthern pot and pour mustard oil alongwith the grinded ingredients...
