My Own Version of Natural Healing

You hear a lot today about the subject of natural healing. About every other infomercial nowadays pushes a product that promises it in some way, shape, or form. I'd like to offer my own version of natural healing. It has to do with how one should deal with minor cuts and cold sores.

I don't believe one should keep a bandage on a minor cut any longer than is required to stop the bleeding. With only a few rare exceptions, I will remove a bandage once the bleeding stops. That's because I've always suspected that a cut heals faster when the air can get to it. Recently, my doctor confirmed this suspicion. Therefore, he makes the same recommendation. 

Cold sores should also be allowed to heal without any interference. There are many products on the market today that claim to stop cold sores or at least speed up their healing. I've tried most of them and none of those have ever worked for me. In fact, they just prolong the agony. When I simply leave them alone and let them run their course, they go away much faster.

Nice tips! Yes, i would agree that some degree of illness should be left to our body natural defense system to heal by itself. In scientific research facts, making our immune system stronger and healthier, would prevent and help ease various kind of disease.

Yes, I agree with natural remedies because WHO recommends that it's time "back to nature" which is meant not only back to the nature, but also use non chemical drugs..thanks for the nice info
