The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has plenty of articles that warn users about the nasty things the corrosives can do to the human body, inside and out. Vinegar and baking soda on the other hand are the perfect ingredients for keeping drains clean and unplugged.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cold and flu got you down?  Turn to your Ayurvedic medicine cabinet to help you kick those flu blues.’


According to Ayurvedic medicine, the common cold results largely from an imbalance of the  Kapha and Vata doshas. Vata (air-space element combination) imbalances lower immunity.  This invariably leads to a build up of the Kapha dosha (water-space element combination) to compensate. However, Kapha mechanisms typically overcompensate to make up for the ‘dryness’ associated with imbalanced Vata and lowered immunity. The result is excessive ‘coldness’ that creates mucus. This in turn reduces your ‘Agni’  or gastric fire, leading you to have the ‘chills.’

		<description><![CDATA[Lately, I have been getting a series of Ayurvedic remedy requests for poison oak.  Oddly enough, they all seem to be coming from pregnant mamas or women who are planning to be pregnant. But when I provide my favorite poison oak relief recipe with turmeric, I am presented with nerves and anxiety.  Is it safe for a pregnant woman to use turmeric?
The Story With Pregnant Mamas Using Turmeric

First, it's important to understand that turmeric is highly detoxifying and cleansing. Which is why it is commonly used in various Ayurvedic detox remedies. Now when it comes to pregnancy and breastfeeding, a soon-to-be mother is not usually advised to take detoxifying herbs and spices internally in a 'medicinal capacity' as it can cause her to release toxins right into the baby's bloodstream or into her breast milk. By 'medicinal capacity,' I mean several capsules-ful or several spoonfuls.  A pinch of turmeric in your cooking is not going to harm you. Same goes for other detoxifying herbs like manjishtha (a heaven-sent blood purifier).]]></description>
