10 Weird But Effective Health Tips

1. Green apples can relieve anxiety

If you feel claustrophobic in small places, such as on the subway, in elevators, and in closets, try smelling green apples to help relieve anxiety. If you are selling your house, you can place a basket of fresh green apples on the table to make the buyer think your house is bigger.

2. Change your name

According to a survey, people with names with positive meanings will live 4.5 years longer, people with ordinary names will only live 3 years longer, and negative names will shorten their lifespan.

3. Choose the first position when going to the bathroom

After investigating 51 public toilets, experts found that the first position closest to the toilet door had the least bacteria but also the most paper towels. And not many people use the first position because people consider their privacy. Be sure to stand upright when flushing, because splashing water can contain toxic bacteria that can cause enteric infection and hepatitis.

4. Use magazines to support your broken arm

If you have a broken arm, pad it with thick magazines. Roll up a magazine and wrap it with string to make the best bandage.

5. Don’t blame yourself for losing your keys

The study found that young people and old people have completely different explanations for misplacing their keys. Young people will blame someone for taking the keys, while old people will blame themselves for not knowing where they put the keys. Never use age as an excuse. This is a very effective psychological hint.

6. When your leg itches, scratch the other leg

When you feel an itch on your body, scratch the same spot on the opposite side of your body. This will make you feel like you are scratching the itchy spot.

7. Solutions for high fever

In fact, any high fever can be reduced by drinking plenty of water. But if you want to reduce a fever quickly, place ice cubes under your arms or near your groin. Both of these places can help you reduce fever quickly. Although it is uncomfortable, it is very effective.

8. Not washing your hands with antibacterial soap

In fact, there is no good evidence that antibacterial soap is any better than regular soap. And antibacterial soap can do more harm than good to your health because it can make bacteria stronger and make them more resistant.

9. Master your driving skills

If you're driving a long-distance car, imagine how your back would react if someone poured a glass of ice water down your neck, and remember to drive with that back.

10. Disinfect with honey

Studies have found that honey has powerful antibacterial properties that can prevent bacterial infections caused by any cuts. So before bandaging, disinfect it with honey first.
