Black bread with honey — A friend of mine stayed in a hotel in India and the manager gave this to her for stomachache (胃痛). It really works. Just take a piece of bread and toast it until it’s black. Then put honey on the bread and eat it. It doesn’t look good, but it can really help. So if you get stomachache, try this remedy (治疗法).

An onion — If you get a high temperature, use an onion. It sounds strange but it helps. Cut one large onion in half and put the half an onion to the bottom (底部) of each of your feet. You shouldn’t wear socks, of course! I use this on my kids and it works every time. The remedy came from a friend from down south.
