Don't Get Caught With The Flu - Home Remedies Here
Cinnamon and Honey
(I nabbed this from a friend on Facebook - so worth spreading the info)
Drug companies won't like this one getting around. Facts on Honey and Cinnamon:
It is found that a mix of honey and Cinnamon cures most diseases. Honey is produced in most of the countries of the world. Scientists of today also note honey as very effective medicine for all kinds of diseases. Honey can be used without side effects which is also a plus.Today's science says that even though honey is sweet, when it is taken in the right dosage as a medicine, it does not harm even diabetic patients. Researched by western scientists:
INFLUENZA: A scientist in Spain has proved that honey contains a natural 'Ingredient' which kills the influenza germs and saves the patient from flu.
COLDS: Those suffering from common or severe colds should take one tablespoon lukewarm honey with 1/4 spoon cinnamon powder daily for three days. This process will cure most chronic cough, cold, and, clear the sinuses, and it's delicious too!
IMMUNE SYSTEM: Daily use of honey and cinnamon powder strengthens the immune system and protects the body from bacterial and viral attacks. Scientists have found that honey has various vitamins and iron in large amounts. Constant use of Honey strengthens the white blood corpuscles (where DNA is contained) to fight bacterial and viral diseases.
HEART DISEASES: Make a paste of honey and cinnamon powder, put it on toast instead of jelly and jam and eat it regularly for breakfast. It reduces the cholesterol and could potentially save one from heart attack. Also, even if you have already had an attack studies show you could be kept miles away from the next attack. Regular use of cinnamon honey strengthens the heart beat. In America and Canada, various nursing homes have treated patients successfully and have found that as one ages the arteries and veins lose their flexibility and get clogged; honey and cinnamon revitalize the arteries and the veins.
ARTHRITIS: Arthritis patients can benefit by taking one cup of hot water with two tablespoons of honey and one small teaspoon of cinnamon powder. When taken daily even chronic arthritis can be cured. In a recent research conducted at the Copenhagen University, it was found that when the doctors treated their patients with a mixture of one tablespoon Honey and half teaspoon Cinnamon powder before breakfast, they found that within a week (out of the 200 people so treated) practically 73 patients were totally relieved of pain -- and within a month, most all the patients who could not walk or move around because of arthritis now started walking without pain.
BLADDER INFECTIONS: Take two tablespoons of cinnamon powder and one teaspoon of honey in a glass of lukewarm water and drink it. It destroys the germs in the bladder....who knew?

According to information received in the said Journal, pure honey taken with food daily relieves complaints of cholesterol.
UPSET STOMACH: Honey taken with cinnamon powder cures stomach ache and also is said to clear stomach ulcers from its root.
GAS: According to the studies done in India and Japan, it is revealed that when Honey is taken with cinnamon powder the stomach is relieved of gas.
INDIGESTION: Cinnamon powder sprinkled on two tablespoons of honey taken before food is eaten relieves acidity and digests the heaviest of meals
LONGEVITY: Tea made with honey and cinnamon powder, when taken regularly, arrests the ravages of old age. Use four teaspoons of honey, one teaspoon of cinnamon powder, and three cups of boiling water to make a tea. Drink 1/4 cup, three to four times a day. It keeps the skin fresh and soft and arrests old age. Life spans increase and even a 100 year old will start performing the chores of a 20-year-old.
RASPY OR SORE THROAT: When throat has a tickle or is raspy, take one tablespoon of honey and sip until gone. Repeat every three hours until throat is without symptoms.

Also, drinking this mixture regularly does not allow the fat to accumulate in the body even though the person may eat a high calorie diet.
CANCER: Recent research in Japan and Australia has revealed that advanced cancer of the stomach and bones have been cured successfully. Patients suffering from these kinds of cancer should daily take one tablespoon of honey with one teaspoon of cinnamon powder three times a day for one month.
FATIGUE: Recent studies have shown that the sugar content of honey is more helpful rather than being detrimental to the strength of the body. Senior citizens who take honey and cinnamon powder in equal parts are more alert and flexible. Dr. Milton, who has done research, says that a half tablespoon of honey taken in a glass of water and sprinkled with cinnamon powder, even when the vitality of the body starts to decrease, when taken daily after brushing and in the afternoon at about 3:00 P.M., the vitality of the body increases within a week.

Protect Your Home From Freezing Temps
Wow! This weekend is predicted to be brutally cold, our Gilbert forecast is supposed to get down to 24 degrees!
Homes in Arizona are not built to withstand super cold temps into the 20s. As a home owner or just someone who enjoys hot water In the morning, precautionary measures need to be taken for your house and plants.
- Protect pipes exposed to the elements by covering them with blankets, tubes from Home Depot or wrap plastic bags or trash bags around pipes with tape.
- Unhook hoses from spigots
- Turn a faucet on to a drip, running water will help keep the water inside pipes from freezing
- Keep the pool pump on for the might to keep the water movement going.
- Cover your sensitive plants or spray them with anti freezing spray also found at Home Depot or local nurseries.
- Bring pets inside, especially the smaller breeds. They struggle to keep warm and the extra help from sweaters is great thie time of year.

The subdivision is located 6 miles from San Tan Village, a unique and beautiful shopping and entertainment destination located at Val Vista & Williams Field as well as being close the ASU-Polytechnic Campus and Mesa-Gateway Airport.
The area surrounding Power Ranch is growing and continually providing more opportunities for the community.
Thinking about moving to POWER RANCH? The community has an active HOA and events calendar with a little something for everybody and all age groups. The calendar usually has 2-3 options daily for residents to partake in group activities, classes or informational meetings. Power Ranch features 2 large swimming pools located at each community center as well as 2 highly rated elementary schools, a YMCA and acres of outdoor recreational fields.
Power Ranch Home Values have increased 17% since this time last year and prices are continuing to rise. If your Power Ranch house has been underwater these past few years, there's a good chance you are not underwater anymore with high end Power Ranch homes topping out at $500,000.
Buying A Home in Power Ranch has also never been easier! With consumer confidence coming back into the market, we are finding more traditional sales than we have in the last 3-4 years and much fewer short sales and foreclosures. This means that transactions are going faster and you no longer have to wait 2-5 months to close escrow. Mortgage rates are still extremely low. We have seen FHA rates locked at 3.25% for a 30-year loan making owning much more affordable than renting!
