LOL too funny, i've heard of the Onions on the bottom of the feet, you were lucky I know some had to endure a cold bath or enema. I had the fortune of responding to ST Josephs aspirin.
There's usually something to the The old remedies. My great grandfather would plant potatoes at night in the light of a full moon. I remember having to wait an hour after eating before I could go swimming. My mother remembered having to wear wool tights until a certain date no matter what the temperature to avoid getting sick.
I hate the newer cyber superstition that if you don't forward something you will have bad luck, not get the money thats coming your way or miss out on some blessing.
