Many Americans trying to cut back on health care costs now see the kitchen as their pharmacy.

If you have athlete's foot, mix two teaspoons of salt with a pint of warm water. Soak your foot in it for ten minutes. The saline will help kill the fungus.

For bee stings, try toothpaste. It's been shown to relieve the sting in just minutes and reduce pain for up to five hours.

If you rubbed up against poison ivy in the garden, rub the area for at least 25 seconds with liquid dish soap before rinsing with water.

One study showed doing this prevented a red, itchy rash from developing nearly half the time, and reduced inflammation and blistering by 56 percent.

An at-home remedy for eczema relief is, rubbing olive oil on the skin to deliver both moisture and inflammation-fighting antioxidants.
