The next time you or your child has a fever, try this amazing home remedy. Since the Dioscorides era, cabbage has been used for its healing properties including its ability to reduce fevers. Tear a leaf from the near center of the cabbage and, with the heel of your hand, pound the central vein of the leaf a little. Then, place the entire leaf on top of the head. This may sound (and look!) a little odd, but it really works. Give it a shot. Don’t waste your money on expensive, over-the-counter drugs. This method is also much safer than taking drugs. Cabbage is so cheap! Seriously, year round, if you live in North America, a cabbage should be 1-3 dollars and one will go a long way. The medicinal properties are a bonus, but quite typical for many plants. Our culture (not Thrift Culture :), Western Culture) has lost touch with home remedies, but home remedies work and they can save you a ton of cash!
