	Bites. The best relief from a bite that causes inflammation or a bump is meat tenderizer. Bugs typically leave protein remnants (venom digestive juices, fecal matter), which react with your skin to harden it, creating proteins. Make a paste with water and apply it to the affected area. This kills the sting and most of the itch. Occasionally a salt-water towel placed on the area clears up the skin irritation. Liquid soap also works to kill the itch.

	Hiccups. Eat a whole clove. Hold your head back and drop a spoonful of sugar into your throat. Make sure the sugar hits the pallet at the back of your mouth.

	Fever. Mix 1 teacup fresh lemon juice in tender coconut water and drink.

	Nausea. Lick the powder of fried laung (cloves) mixed with honey to control vomiting. Sucking a piece of ice relieves the feeling of nausea. Mix 2-3 teaspoon of curry patta (curry leaves) juice with a teaspoon of lime juice (add a little sugar if needed). Drinking this will control morning sickness, nausea and vomiting.

	Body Pain. Boil 3 tablespoons powdered nutmeg in 1 cup sesame oil. Cool and apply on affected parts.
