Relief for heartburn

To eliminate indigestion, have a snack that contains 1/2 tsp of mustard (any kind). Mustard seeds are rich in acids that stimulate the stomach to increase production of digestive enzymes, which improve the breakdown and absorption of food.

Relieve water retention

Drink 2 cups of dandelion tea daily. Dandelion leaves are rich in fluid-flushing minerals that will help you to get rid of a bloated tummy.

Great lashes for less

To achieve long lush lashes use an expensive brush with any brand of mascara. Most mascara formulas are similar and their secret for a stunning look is the innovative lash-separating brush that some have.

Relief for stress

Rub a pinch of fresh or dried rosemary between your fingers. Breathing in the scent of this herb helps to lower levels of cortisol, the stress hormone.

Fading hair color

To revive a fading hair color, mix 1 packet of a vitamin C supplement powder with water, creating a thick paste. Wash hair as usual, then apply the mixture to wet hair. Leave on for about 10 minutes and rinse well. Ascorbic and citric acids will dissolve the iron and alkaline deposits in hard water that cause color-treated hair to fade.

Fast browning pie crust

To prevent your crust from overbrowning, flip the ring of a tart pan and place it over the pie. Continue baking until crust is cooked through.

Heat up the grill quickly

Place a double layer of aluminum foil over the grates. By trapping the heat, the foil will cause the grates to get hot much faster.

Grilling fish fillets

To prevent fish fillets from sticking to the metal grates, wrap them in paper towels and place in the refrigerator for about an hour before grilling. This will help proteins on the fish’s surface stick to one another, so fillets will not bond to the grill.

Revive the taste of frozen fish

To make frozen fish taste like fresh, just soak the meat in a shallow bowl of milk and let defrost in the refrigerator before preparing the desired dish.

Cook moist and tender chicken

To accomplish a tender chicken, mix 1 tsp of cornstarch into your marinade before soaking the meat. The product will help the marinade stick to the chicken, creating a protective layer that prevents dryness.
