Dandelion syrup:
You should pick 400 yellow dandelion flowers and pour 3 liters of cold water over them. Then, add 4 lemons and 4 oranges cut in slices, and leave the mixture for 24 hours. After that, strain the combination through cheesecloth, and move the resulting liquid in a pot. Add 2 cups of sugar and cook for about an hour and a half, frequently stirring. As soon as it boils, and it is thick enough, reduce the heat and pour the hot syrup in hot, sterilized jars. This syrup is excellent in the treatment of a cough, cold, bronchitis, and it can be also given to children.
Dandelion tea:
Pick dandelion plants, and dry them on the air. The dried leaves are used in the preparation of dandelion tea. Drink it always fresh, and you can also sweeten it with some honey. However, add it with a wooden or plastic spoon, and never use a metal one.
Dandelion root cures cancer
The powerful medicinal properties of dandelion have been known and appreciated for centuries. Moreover, newest scientific research has shown that its root can cure cancer. Leave the dandelion roots to dry for 13-14 days. As soon as they become brittle under the fingers, they are dry enough. Then, store them in a jar, and keep it in a dry, dark place or up to a year. Furthermore, dandelion root is extremely useful in the case of women’s diseases, particularly in the prevention and treatment of numerous breasts issues like cancer, cysts, tumors, and issues related to breast milk and breastfeeding.

The Preparation and Use:
First, take 3 cups of water and put them to heat. After the water warms up, pour the fabric softener in the spray bottle. Then, add 3 cups of warm water to the container. Finally, add the baking soda and close the bottle. Shake the bottle well to mix the ingredients.
After you clean the house, just spray the substance inside. You can also throw a bit of it in the corners of the house to have a better effect. However, you need to make sure that the ingredients mix well. This way, the softener will not damage the walls or fabrics because of the bicarbonate.
The best thing about it is that it will be very safe for your health because it does not contain chemicals. Thus, we really recommend you to try it as soon as possible and share this with your friends.
Ingredients
Instructions:
Stir together yeast, 1/2 cup flour and water in the bowl of a stand mixer or a large bowl. Let sit until mixture becomes foamy, 10-15 minutes.
Stir the melted butter, egg, sugar and salt into the yeast mixture. Add the remaining flour and knead with a dough hook, or by hand until smooth and elastic.
Form dough into a ball and brush lightly with oil. Place in a lightly oiled bowl and let rise for about 2 hours.
Form dough into a thick rope and cut into 8-14 pieces (see note). Work with 1 piece of dough at a time, and keep the remainder covered. Form each piece into a ball, tucking the ends underneath. Slightly flatten the ball with the palm of your hand. Place dough patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment about 1/2″ apart. Allow to rise about 1 hour, until doubled.
Heat oven to 375°F. When buns have risen, whisk together egg and milk. Lightly brush the egg mixture on top of each bun, being careful not to collapse the dough. Immediately sprinkle with sesame seeds or other toppings if desired.
Bake buns for 15-17 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool. If you aren’t going to use the buns within 2 days, freeze leftovers.

In order to lower the price, the chemical make-up of honey is often subjected to numerous alterations.
A public research study conducted by the Food Safety News provided a rather alarming find concerning honey. They have discovered that up to 76% of all types of honey available in supermarkets have been subjected to a process called ultra filtration.
This filtration process removes impurities like wax traces, but also the pollen as well.
The manufacturers say that this process is needed in order to prevent “crystallizing and to prolong the shelf life of the product.” Little do the consumers know that pollen is extremely important and beneficial to our bodies.
According to these researchers, the main reason to avoid honey that’s been treated by this process is the inability to determine the geographical origin of the honey, as in cases of pollen contamination, the origin needs to be analyzed and traced.
Chinese honey is one such example. It is often contaminated with illegal antibiotics and some metals, since producers process honey in this way in order to import it, and its origin is unknown.
Therefore, we can suggest a few brands and places where you can purchase honey which lacks pollen:
Honey types sold at Walgreen’s and CVS Pharmacy do not contain pollen.
Certain packages of KFC and McDonald honey do not contain pollen.
Honey Winnie the Pooh which can be bought at Walmart does not have pollen.
77% of the honey sold at Costco, Target and Sam’s Club do not have pollen.
Moreover, there are also honey types which have been combined with glucose, as well as others which are high in poor-quality mead. Adulterated honey is honey that is not in its purest possible form.
How to Recognize Fake Honey:
If your honey does not “crystallize” over time, there is a good chance it may be adulterated, since the pure one will crystallize when kept in the fridge.
Always read the labels: Always read the label on the honey, and if it contains commercial glucose or high fructose corn syrup, avoid it.
Add a few iodine drops into a glass of water and add in some honey afterwards. If your honey turns a blue colour it has been combined with corn starch.
Add a couple of drops of vinegar into a mixture of water with honey. If you see foam, your honey has been adulterated with plaster.
Burn the honey with phosphorus or a match, and if it ignites, it is pure honey.
Place a spoon of honey into a glass of water. In case the honey does not dissolve, it is pure. Fake honey or poor-quality honey dissolves in water.
