Home remedy

Okay kiddo, so a home remedy is a way to make yourself feel better using things you can find in your house.

Let’s say you have a tummy ache. One home remedy would be to make some ginger tea. All you need is ginger root and boiling water. You peel the ginger and cut it into small pieces. Then you put those pieces in a cup and pour boiling water over it. Wait for a few minutes for the tea to cool down and then take a sip. Ginger helps to calm the stomach and make you feel less sick.

Another example of a home remedy is using honey for a sore throat. If your throat hurts, you can take a spoonful of honey and let it slowly melt in your mouth. Honey is a natural cough suppressant and can help soothe your throat.

Home remedies are often used for simple ailments like headaches, colds, coughs, sore muscles or insect bites. It is important to remember though that if you have a serious illness, home remedies might not be enough and you should see a doctor.
