Far from the pharmaceutical products that we have today, in the past, our ancestors knew how to relieve many ailments and concoct remedies from natural ingredients. From spices, plants to vanilla pods, they knew how to get the most out of everyday ingredients.  

Simple and effective, in our article this month, we found the best antidotes for you, from vanilla beans, that really work. 

Relieve dysentery

Did you know that vanilla and milk can relieve diarrhea? Here's a simple recipe: mix 1 to 5 teaspoons of cornstarch in half a glass of milk, add a dash of vanilla and 1 teaspoon of sugar or honey to sweeten the taste.
