Everyone knows that a dock leaf eases a sting or that prunes help to relieve constipation, but did you know that not eating lettuce may help to avoid backache or that you can cure a fit of sneezing with a lick of salt? Many of the remedies in this invaluable collection were provided by the readers of Dr James Le Fanu's popular column in the "Daily Telegraph". These traditional remedies have been passed down the generations because they are effective and the ingredients used are readily available in your store-cupboard or garden. They cover an astonishing variety of minor and not-so-minor ills, from acne to eczema, jetlag to hiatus hernia.
