Onions on a child's feet will bring down a fever. Put sliced onions in socks, put on child (onion side underneath, against foot soles), put child to bed. In the morning, the onions will be shriveled up and dried, and the fever will be lowered or gone.
Maple syrup and baking soda cancer cure. Mix one part baking soda with three parts pure 100% maple syrup. Stir briskly. Heat mixture for 5 minutes. Take 1 tsp daily.
Vinegar and baking soda for shiny clean teeth. Dip your toothbrush in water, then in baking soda. Brush as normal. Rinse with apple cider vinegar, then rinse with water.
Vix on your feet cures coughs. Rub Vix VapoRub on the soles of your feet. Put on thick socks. Go to bed. Makes head and chest colds better.
Beating the bottoms of your feet stops nose-bleeds. Lay bleeding person down on their back. Hit the bottoms of their feet sharply several times. Nose-bleed will stop.
(Poster's Disclaimer: I have done none of these (except the toothbrushing one, which is really cool, as the vinegar fizzes up in your mouth), and can make no guarantees as to their efficacy. But some people swear they work and even say they have seen them in action!)
