<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Most people experience depression at some point of time in
their lives. But if the depression lasts for more than two weeks you may need
treatment. If you are depressed, your behavior, appearance, communication and
attitude towards others may change completely. You will be disinterested in
everything around you, including your daily chores. You may feel like avoiding
company and would like to be alone. You may lose your appetite, and become
forgetful. You may also sleep more. Uncombed hair, unshaven beard and dirty
clothes are all signs of depression. At times you may even feel like committing
suicide. Depression may make you feel that it is the end of the world for you.
First you have to realize that the depression is temporary. You have to analyze
the causes of depression.</span><br />

<b><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Major Causes of Depression</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />Most people feel depressed when someone close to them dies. But if you are emotionally attached to the dead person like son, daughter, wife or husband the grief will be very difficult to bear. The depression could last long. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /><b>Divorce</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />Divorce or separation could be a major cause of depression. You may feel unwanted. The question crops up as to what to do next. You may feel insecure. If you have small children, getting separated from them could cause more agony.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /><b>Health Problem</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />Severe health problems could be another reason. A disease like cancer and unbearable pain due to the disease could be major cause of depression. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /><b>Environmental Factors</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />A hostile work environment with an unreasonable boss or coworkers may cause depression. Inability to meet the targets and likelihood of losing the job could cause anxiety and depression.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /><b>Detoxification</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />If you are an alcohol or drug addict trying to kick the habit, the sudden deprivation of the substance may cause depression.</span><br />

<span style="color: #999999;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Several naturally available substances have properties of an expectorant. They help to push out phlegm.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">An expectorant thins out the mucus and helps to expel it from the bronchial tubes and lungs. This helps to make breathing easier. It is very important for an affected patient to expel mucus. Coughing helps to clear the mucus buildup in the chest and the lungs. It makes breathing easier. If you have common colds, flu, bronchitis, sinus congestion or pneumonia, it is necessary to get the phlegm out of the system. </span><br />

Add grated ginger to water and boil it. Strain it after it cools and it is ready for drinking. Honey can also be added to ginger tea as it is also an expectorant. It will sweeten the tea and add to its taste.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /><b>Steam</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />One of the best methods to get rid of phlegm is to inhale steam from a vaporizer. Moist air helps to loosen the phlegm from the air tubes and expel it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Elevate your pillow so that the phlegm does not get back to the lungs.</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Drink lots of water as it thins out the mucus and helps its expulsion.</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Hot spicy foods like chilli peppers help to loosen the mucus.</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Hot tea will also help to loosen the mucus. </span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />These are some of the natural expectorants which will help you to get rid of phlegm.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /><b>Don’t </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />If you have phlegm in your air tubes and lungs it is essential to stop smoking. Smoke can irritate nasal passages and aggravate the problem. Certain over the counter expectorant syrups, suppress mucus are available. Don’t over use them. </span><br />

<span style="color: #999999;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Homemade facial scrub can help to get rid of acne and blackheads. It helps to keep your face clean and smooth. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Facial scrub
removes the dead skin cells and oil that clogs up the pores. It is well
known that acne is the result of oils produced by the subcutaneous
glands clogging up the pores. Facial scrub helps to remove acne and
blackheads. It is necessary to use the right kind of scrub that suits
your skin type.</span> Use facial scrub once a week. Using it more frequently will make the skin dry and dull. It might even damage your skin, if it is sensitive. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Apply the scrub to your face and neck with a gentle massage. Don’t rub it too hard. Avoid it from getting into the eyes. Wash it off after 15-20 minutes. Remove all traces of the scrub from your face. Pat your face gently with a towel.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">There are several recipes to make facial scrub at home. They can be made from natural ingredients and are safe. They will not cause any damage to the skin, like the scrubs available in the market which contain chemical ingredients.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Here are a few recipes for natural facial scrubs</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><b><br />Baking Soda Face Scrub</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Mix a tbsp of baking soda with warm water to make a paste. Apply the paste to your face and neck. Rub the face gently with your fingers in a circular motion. Then wash your face with warm water to remove all traces of the paste and pat it dry with a towel. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Burns are very common. Certain natural remedies can help to heal a burn fast. You may burn your fingers when you’re cooking. First degree burns are generally superficial. They affect only the top layer of the skin (epidermis). This may cause blisters, swelling and redness of the skin. Second degree burns will penetrate to the dermis, the second layer of the skin. Third degree burns will destroy the skin completely and may damage the underlying muscles. It can result in scarring.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />Aloe Vera is an excellent remedy for burns. Just cut a aloe vera leaf with a knife and squeeze the gel to the affected skin. It will reduce the pain and the burning sensation. According to the New York Times, a group of surgeons studied the effects of Aloe Vera on burns. They concluded that aloe vera could make a difference when applied to first degree burns. However second and third degree burns require medical attention. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /><b>How to Treat Burns</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />The burnt area should be washed with cold water. Don’t use ice<b>,</b> as it may aggravate the problem</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />Open a capsule of vitamin E and apply the oil on the affected area. Consuming vitamin A and vitamin E can also heal the burn quickly.</span><br />
<b><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />Potato Skin </span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />Potato skin can replace bandages in treating burns. Dr. Narayana a plastic surgeon of Jubilee Medical College in Kerala (India) says that potato skin is not sticky and heals the wound fast. It helps to keep the wound moist and can be peeled of easily. Water evaporates from the burn wound quickly, making it dry. Potato peel helps to prevent this. The ability of the potato peel to keep the wound moist, helps to heal the burn wounds faster.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /><b>Bandage</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />It is advisable to put burn wounds under cold water for about 5 minutes. Then the skin can be covered with sterile bandage. This can help to reduce the pain and irritation. You can also take pain killers like ibuprofen and acetaminophen. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />It is necessary to keep the wound as clean as possible to prevent infection. Several OTC creams for burns are available. One of these can be applied to the affected area. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />Alternately you can apply an antibiotic cream on the burn wound to prevent infection. You should use a non stick cotton bandage to cover the wound. It is necessary to change the bandage every day. Blisters should not be broken as they prevent infection. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />Don’t apply butter, oil or Vaseline on the burn, as the burn requires moisture to heal.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /><b>Vinegar</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />Dilute vinegar can be applied on minor burns. As vinegar is acidic it helps prevent infection. After the application of vinegar, cover the wound with a sterile cloth. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /><b>To Treat Burn Scars</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />Aloe vera gel is quite useful in minimizing scarring due to burn. Apply aloe vera gel on the scar 3-4 times every day.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />Papaya is also effective in minimizing the scars. Rub ripe papaya fruit chunk on the affected skin several times a day.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />Paste made from Fuller’s earth helps to fade the scars. Add a tbsp of lemon juice and some rose water to make a paste. Apply the paste and wash it off after ten minutes. Repeat the process 3-4 times a day. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />If the burn is serious consult a doctor immediately. It is extremely important to prevent infection. </span></div>

It is also a very good antioxidant.</span><br /><br />Elderberry tree grows several countries across the world. It is a shrub which at times grows to the height of a small tree. Its flowers are cream in color and fragrant. The flower gives way to a dark purple colored fruit. Its scientific name is <i>sambucus nigra</i>. Native Americans used it to treat rheumatism. In Europe it is used in the preparation of food products like jams, wines, jellies and pies. Elderberry tree that grows in Europe is different from the one that grows in America.</span><br />
