This is WhatsApp message I received but found very useful so sharing with you all....


Always have a bag of flour handy in the kitchen and let everyone know where it is.

This is a true life experience of a woman who burned herself ...
Some time ago, I was boiling corn and poured some cold water into the boiling water to see if the corn was ready. By mistake I dipped my hand; into the boiling water .... !!
A friend of mine who was a Vietnamese veterinary doctor had come to the house. So as I howled in pains he asked me if I had a sachet of (wheat) flour at home.
I poured out a bit and he put my hand into the flour and asked me to wait for about 10 minutes.
He told me that in Vietnam there was a boy who once burned. With the fire on him and in panic someone poured a sack of flour all over his body to try to extinguish the fire. But not only was the fired extinguished there was no trace of burns on the boy !!!!
In my own case, I put my hand in the bag of flour for 10 minutes, and then removed it and I did not even notice any red mark of burn after that. Moreover, absolutely NO PAIN.
Today I put a bag of flour in the fridge and every time I burn, I use the flour. Actually cold flour is much better than that at room temperature.
I use flour and I never even have any trace of burns!
I had even burned my tongue once and put the flour on it for about 10 minutes ....The pain stopped.

So always have at least a sachet of flour in your refrigerator.

Flour has the ability to absorb heat and it has strong antioxidant properties. Thus, it helps a burned patient if it is applied within 15 minutes.
