Simple Method To Wash Pesticides From Fruits And Vegetables

We're all well aware that farmers use a lot of pesticides to save the crops from various pests. But often, the amount they use at times on apples, banana and curry leaves is more than usual. Especially on curry leaves, they want to show its fresh green colour, to which dye is also added. So, kindly don't go buy the bright artificial colours when you buy your fruits and veggies. As far as possible, it is best to buy what is grown locally and what is seasonally available.

Now, simple method to get rid of pesticides is wash well, then soak in water to which baking soda and turmeric is added. Let them soak for at least 10 minutes, longer the better, then rinse well and use. As this method will also kill the microbes that may be present on the produce.

Let us all try to lead a healthy life and take care of the smaller things of keeping pesticides out of our house. Eat healthy, be happy, that itself will keep most of the diseases at bay. Good luck to all.

Get rid of blackheads with home remedies

Here are some tips of how you can remove those dirty black spots at home. 

Blackheads are dirty, tiny black spots that make home on the skin of your face, especially your nose. These are mostly the result of dirt, bacteria and dead skin cells, which clog the pores of the skin through which it breathes. Here are a few home remedies that can help you prevent or control or remove blackheads: 

1. Wash your face: Don't be too harsh on your skin. But do wash it twice or thrice with a good face wash. Use a scrub at least thrice a week. 

2. Exfoliate: Use gentle exfoliators on your face as too rough a use can harm your skin too. But do use them once a week to remove blackheads. 

3. Steam bath: Taking steam on your face loosens the blackheads, making it easier to remove them. 

4. Take a mixture of lemon, honey and add some sugar to it. Rub it gently on your skin till the sugar melts on your face and acts as a natural scrub. 

5. You can also use a mixture of ground oats with a tiny pinch of salt and olive oil.While applying both these solutions, keep them for about 10 minutes and then rinse with lukewarm water.
