When you feel like a snack, nuts are a healthy choice, especially walnuts.

Walnuts are the only nuts that offer a significant amount of the omega-3 fat alpha-linolenic acid, ALA’s anti-inflammatory properties halt plaque buildup in the arteries that results when "bad" LDL cholesterol is oxidized.

No salt pistachio nuts are a healthy second choice, which help lower blood pressure.

You left out one very important nut...Almonds, almonds, good for your heart, the more you eat the more you … lower your LDL cholesterol, improve your complexion and digestion, and reduce your risk of cancer.

Garlic oil in ears isn't good for severe infection. Can cause burns and repturing of ear drums.
Sweet oil however works.

Mint for sore throats.
Tepid tea for burns.

Questions: Could this be used in our furkids ears as well? What is sweet oil?

Not sure about the furchildren. It is a form of olive oil used for medicinal purposes it is not purified. You can purchase at most groceries, walmarts targets or natural food shops. It also is great to use like neosporin.

I read on a healthy eating website that eating 1 banana a day will reduce your risk of colon cancer by 40%. It's also excellent for prevention of muscle cramps in your legs and keeping you from getting dehydrated. Who knew!
