In case of children 1/4 tsp of tulsi paste should be mixed with little honey(DO NOT MIX CURDS IF YOU ARE GIVING IT TO A CHILD)

HOME REMEDY FOR EYE STRAIN

In today's world most of them have this problem of eye strain as they work for long hours in front of the computer or can be caused by reading for long hours

So to reduce eye strain take 10 minutes rest in a complete dark room,this surely relieves strain and relaxes your muscles

Another way of resting your eyes is place your palms gently over the closed eyes, ( place it not so lightly or not so tightly) , do it for a few moments during the day and it definitely works....so do try it out yourself...

HOME REMEDY FOR TOOTHACHE

Especially if you stay in abroad its very difficult to get an appointment with the dentist that easily, u will have to wait for days (this was my personal experience)....but few problems can be solved at home itself esp when your having toothache .....With my personal experience of having toothache i had used this remedy, so i recommend you to try this whenever u face this type of problem

Grind 8-10 tulsi leaves along with 5-7 peppercorns and place the paste between the affected cavity or another remedy is to boil few neem leaves in 2 cups of water and rinse your mouth few times with this water, you will def get relief from the pain

Or buy clove oil and apply with a cotton bud to the effected cavity in the morning and before sleeping
