Did you know that it usually takes nicotine 48-72 hours to leave your system?
This worrying fact should be a wake-up call to those smokers who are not ready to quit yet!
Fortunately, there is a remedy that can help flush out nicotine from your body. The remedy is called Cream of Tartar and it’s a byproduct of the wine making process. In fact, this remedy is beneficial to both smokers and non-smokers.
WHAT IS CREAM OF TARTAR?
Cream of tartar, technically known as potassium hydrogen tartate, is a sediment that is obtained from the bottom of a wine barrel. However, it is not alcoholic.
Benefits of cream of tarter
1. QUIT SMOKING
Besides pulling nicotine out of the body, cream of tartar will also make you dislike the taste of cigarettes. When it comes to quitting smoking, you should mix cream of tartar with orange juice to make it more effective.
The orange juice restores the levels of vitamin C in the body, which helps the body to flush nicotine. Some individuals have claimed that they quit smoking by taking a medium glass of orange mixed with half a teaspoon of cream of tartar, every night, for 30 days.
2. REDUCE ARTHRITIS PAIN
Cream of tartar is effective against arthritis, thanks to its high content of magnesium, which controls inflammation. You can mix 2 tablespoons of cream of tartar with 3 tablespoons of Epsom salt and add it to your bath. Soak in the solution for 30-40 minutes, 1-2 times a day.
For a localized arthritis pain, reduced the amount of Epsom salt and the cream of tartar in half and use a bucket instead.
3. RELIEVE URINARY TRACT INFECTION
By altering the urine’s pH levels, cream of tartar effectively relieves urinary tract infections. This is because it creates an environment that is unfriendly for the bacteria responsible for the infection.
Mix one and a half teaspoons of cream of tartar with a cup of warm water. Add some drops of lemon juice and drink the mixture 1-2 times a day.
4. CLEAR ACNE
The acidic properties of cream of tartar make it an excellent acne-fighting, cleaning agent for your skin. Add a teaspoon of cream of tartar to 8 ounces of water or orange juice.
Drink the solution every day. With time, the solution will eliminate the toxins and bacteria that cause acne from your system.
5. REDUCE BLOOD PRESSURE
Low potassium levels increase your risk of developing high blood pressure complications.
Fortunately, cream of tartar can take care of that, thanks to its high potassium content. In fact,
100 grams of cream of tartar has a whopping 16,500 milligrams of potassium.
If potassium deficiency is the cause of your high blood pressure problems, simply mix a teaspoon of cream of tartar with a glass of water. Drink it every night.
