Home Remedies Most of the natural remedies presented on this website are folklorically-based and are not intended to replace sound medical advice, prescription or treatment. Therefore, the author, the Trinity Naturopathic Research and Healing Centre, nor its host, will be held liable to any claims resulting from the use of herbs, natural remedies, herbal formula, or healing regime, should anyone choose self treatment. It is prudent to seek the advice of a physician, particularly in cases where there are existing health problems. For example, a pinch of salt swallowed slowly, usually brings relief to a nagging cough; however, a hypertensive person may need to be cautious due to its sodium content.
