Gatorade for headache

Oh I see...

[Tim and Bethanie 1]

Dawn is also used in a mixture for a dog that has been sprayed by a skunk. Dawn is however very harsh on the animals coat, because it breaks down the natural oils.

Vinegar, I swear by this stuff. Its good for cleaning windows and dishes. Lately I have been using a 50/50 (vinegar and warm water) mixture on doggy accidents, works much better than any over the counter carpet cleaner.

[Ladylethal 12]

Some of those are really cool. Some I've been using for ages.

[JenT 0]

Windex on carpet stains... also very effective.

Gatorade works because many headaches are caused by dehydration.

Charles.... very clever!!

Gatorade works because many headaches are caused by dehydration.

yeap, and is not likely to work on headaches caused by other medical conditions. And dehydration headaches can just be avoided by drinking proper amounts of water in the first place.

Achy muscles from a bout of the flu? Mix 1 Tablespoon of horseradish in 1 cup of olive oil. Let the mixture sit for 30 minutes, then apply it as a massage oil, for instant relief for aching muscles

Why not just use the tube of muscle rub that's in the bathroom cupboard?

I tried to do them all simultaneously, I wound up washing the dryer sheets and polishing my dogs toenail fungus with my eyeglasses...
