Recently I learned of a new home remedy for canker sores. While I wasn’t thrilled to discover a canker sore inside my mouth this week, it did give me an opportunity to try the remedy out first hand. And best of all, it worked!

A pinch of instant coffee crystals helps canker sores heal! Also taking lysine, on an empty stomach, helps fever blisters and canker sores to go away too. And since I mentioned fever blisters, to dry them out apply roll on deodorant directly to the fever blister several times a day. And, for the best oral hygiene change your toothbrush every month, especially if you’ve had a sore throat, cold or flu.

For more home remedies, refer to the book, Pearls of Country Wisdom by Deborah Tukua.
