You might be affected by appendicitis
NATURAL REMEDIES
Green Gram
When it comes to best
appendicitis remedies, you can consider green gram to be in the top list. even
all alternative medicine practitioners recommend this. Green gram or mung beans
can be bought from grocery stores. Rinse the dry beans three or four times and
then soak these in clean water overnight. In the morning, you will find them
plump and sprouting. You can eat them raw or microwave or steam them. The beans
can be eaten by themselves as a healthy snack or added for good measure in
green salads. Sprouted beans can be stored for four to five days. But make sure
they are drained well – stagnant water that may be trapped in the container
where you store the beans can rot them.
Whole Wheat
Wheat is a popular
carbohydrate. However, we tend to eat the pristine white, refined flour more
than the slightly grainy whole wheat flower. Refined flour is devoid of
roughage, so eating too much of this kind of flour leads to constipation. Whole
wheat flour is available in supermarkets and can be used to bake bread or loaves.
The sterilized bran obtained from wheat can be added to refined flour to make
healthier, more roughage containing bread. Brown breads are made from whole
wheat flour, so switch to these instead of white bread.
Ginger:
Ginger is one of the most versatile home remedies
as it has medicinal properties that can be used to treat many disorders. If you
feel nauseated due to your appendicitis, ginger is particularly helpful. It has
a sharp, palate cleansing taste, which suppresses feelings of nausea and also
relieves pain. You can slice up a piece of ginger and eat these raw in the
morning. You can also use it generously in the food you eat. Rustle up a
healthy fruit salad and add candied ginger to it to get a healthy dose of fiber
as well as ginger. However, if you also have the problem of acid reflux, do not
eat more than one gram of ginger a day.
Vegetable Juices
Drinking small amounts
of vegetable juice can help combat the symptoms of appendicitis. Carrot juice
is especially helpful in alleviating pain and fighting the infection.
Appendicitis is caused due to backing up of waste matter in your body and a
great way to flush that out is by drinking lots of water. A cleanse diet is
often recommended for appendicitis where you just drink water and fruit and
vegetable juices for a couple of days. These flush out all the toxins from your
body and waste that have been accumulating due to constipation. If you can
follow this routine long enough, you can even get cured without surgery.
Ginseng Herb
This Chinese herb is
also known for its variety of medicinal benefits. To help with your
appendicitis, drink Ginseng tea two times a day. To make a brew, put some water
on boil. Once it is on the boil, take it off the heat and add a couple of
teaspoons of the herb and let it steep. When the tea cools, drink it. You can
also soak the herb in cold water and drink it.
Buttermilk
Drinking lots of fluids
is essential for any appendicitis patient. That is why they are recommended to
consume all sorts of vegetables, fruits and fluids. Buttermilk happens to be
one of them. It is light and can be drunk regularly in large amounts. In fact,
as one of the best appendicitis remedies, at least 1 liter of buttermilk has to
be drunk every day for it to work. You can also make mocktails with buttermilk.
Shake up a mocktail with buttermilk, grated cucumber, ginger, mint and
coriander for a refreshing drink that also helps in appendix cleansing. You can
also make a light smoothie with buttermilk and a fruit of your choice.
Mint
Mint is a cooling and
soothing herb and is of great benefit to appendicitis patients. There are a lot
of ways to get the goodness out of mint. You can easily add mint leaves to
fruit salads and add to its taste and the health quotient. You can make a paste
of mint leaves and add it to the buttermilk shake for a more refreshing taste
and increase the appendicitis fighting power of buttermilk. The essential oil
of mint is one of the beneficial natural remedies for appendicitis patients. So
if you can buy mint oil, add a couple of drops in a glass of water and drink
it.
Turmeric
Turmeric helps in reversing all sorts of
inflammation. If your appendix is inflamed, having turmeric will alleviate pain
and other symptoms. This is one of great home remedies for appendicitis. You
can use turmeric in food—it lifts up the taste and color of any dish. You can
also make a paste of turmeric and ginger and have a tablespoon of this once a
day, preferably in the morning. Adding a tablespoon of turmeric paste in
buttermilk will boost the medicinal benefits of both. In fact, ‘haldi doodh’ or
turmeric milk has been traditionally drunk by many Indians for ages for
boosting immunity. You can also add slices of turmeric in stir fries to
incorporate its slightly peppery taste with the dish.
Fenugreek Seeds
Fenugreek seeds are
helpful in relieving appendicitis symptoms, especially vomiting. You can chew a
teaspoon of fenugreek seeds after a meal. However, they have a bitter taste,
which can be off-putting. There are hundreds of Indian dishes that have
abundant use of fenugreek seeds. You can prepare these dishes for a healthy
dose of the seeds. You can also soak fenugreek powder in cold water overnight
and drink it in the morning. You can add a bit of honey if you want.
