Natural Hygiene For Better Health with Colon Cleanses

Why Am I Writing About Colon Cleanses on The Frugal Pig?

Yeah, I know they are nasty to think about, and you may think they belong in a natural remedies website, and not a frugal living website like this one. However, I myself, have had some good experiences by using a natural colon cleanse supplement, especially when I felt I was about to come down with something. In the winter, when I feel a scratchy throat or cold coming on, I take a colon cleanse supplement, and the problem usually resolves itself by the next morning.

Dental Plan For Unemployed People

Lose Your Job and Dental Benefits?

Affordable Dental Discount Plan

One of the big stresses during a period of unemployment is the loss of benefits. Of course, the loss of health insurance is major, but you may have a COBRA health plan extension available.

A more immediate program may be dental care, and sometimes it can be tough to find an affordable dental plan for the unemployed.

However, large dental discount plans cost a few dollars a month and many offer very cheap, or even free, routine dental care like checkups and cleanings. Other services, which cannot be deferred until a job is found, are also offered in the network at greatly reduced prices.

Home Made Anti Wrinkle Remedy

Do you have fine or deep lines under your eyes. Maybe they are caused by sun damage, a lack of sleep, or age. Some younger people have them, just because of heredity. We have gotten a natural tip to sooth the skin around your eyes, and many people claim that it is an effective eye area wrinkle remedy without the high cost of commercial products!

Home Made Shiny Hair Conditioner

Make Your Own Hair Conditioner

Everybody wants shiny hair like the shampoo models have. Well, you can buy a lot of products from beauty supply stores or beauty shops. But these commercial hair products can get expensive, and they may also contain a lot of chemicals that can get absorbed by the skin.

However, most people can get great results from a home made and natural hair care conditioner. All you need is an egg, a teaspoon of honey (that makes the medicine go down — or was that sugar?), and a tablespoon of olive oil. Beat the egg, and then mix in the honey and olive oil. Then shampoo your hair and rinse it well. Apply your egg mixture. Leave it on for 5 minutes, and then rinse it out. When your hair dries, it should shine!

Homemade Facial

Our homemade sunburn relief was a big hit, so we thought we’d follow it up with a homemade facial cure. Well, you know that commercial preparations that are made with natural oatmeal are very popular, and very effective. As a point of fact, when my kids had chicken pox (right before the vaccine came out), the commercial oatmeal preparation seemed to give them the best relief!

Well, why not use oatmeal as a natural facial? First open your pores with cloth dipped in hot water. Make a paste with oatmeal and apply it to your face. Wear that for 15 minutes, and then wash your face with a cloth dipped in cool water.

Cheap Homemade Sunburn Relief

Summer Sun Means Sunburns

As sure as April showers bring May flowers, the summer sun brings sunburns. Oh, of course we should use sunscreen and avoid prolonged exposure to the sun. But we do not want to pass up a day at the beach or neighborhood pool for the fun and exercise. Despite our best efforts to protect our skin, we do suffer a burn once in awhile.

Homemade Sunburn Relief

We all know about aloe, and if you have a plant at home that is great. You can also buy preparations with aloe in them. However, this wonderful, cooling preparation can be taken right out of the fridge without buying a specially made sunburn gel or growing any plants!
