The specific choice of herbal remedy depends on its "quality" or "energy," which Ayurveda determines according to twenty attributes (vimshatiguna), such as hot, cold, wet, dry, heavy, or light. Ayurveda also classifies remedies according to six tastes — sweet, sour, salty, bitter, pungent, and astringent. Sweet, sour, and salty substances increase water (kapha) and decrease air (vata); bitter, pungent, and astringent remedies increase air and decrease water; and sour, salty, and pungent herbs increase fire (pitta). | Alan Keith Tillotson, Ph.D., A.H.G., D.Ay. See book keywords and concepts | Conch shell (shi jue ming or Haliotidis di-versicolor) and tortoise shell (gui ban) are also used, the former to "drain fire downward," and the latter to nourish the blood and "suppress Liver wind" (for deficiency and mild sedation). We will refer to these herbs often as we discuss formulas for eye conditions.
Cataracts
The crystalline lens of the eye is a specialized epithelial structure developed from the ectoderm embryonic layer, enveloped in a surrounding capsule developed from the mesoderm. | You can also make this formula as a tincture and apply it topically to the site of pain. A simple tincture combination of cayenne pepper and lobelia can be useful for both internal and external use, often affording quick relief. (See Resource Section.) All of these herbs can also be made into a tea and soaked into a cotton cloth for direct warm application. In cases with more inflammation and heat, add herbs like bromelain, boswellia gum, phellodendron root, and scute root. It may be better to use cold applications here. | the Editors of FC&A Medical Publishing See book keywords and concepts | Eat

Spicy foods if they trigger ulcer pain
Ulcere
What's eating you? If you frequently have a gnawing pain in your stomach, it's probably a peptic ulcer — a sore on the lining of your stomach or small intestine.
People once thought ulcers were caused by stress or spicy foods. But in the 1980s, research uncovered a more treatable cause — Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), a corkscrew-shaped bacterium. | Andrew Chevallier See book keywords and concepts | Curcuma longa, p. 88), cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum, p. 80), and senna (Cassia senna, p. 72).

Turning Sunburn into a Nice Tan
Paul Neinast, owner and operator of Dallas' leading beauty salon, came up with a nifty idea several years ago for turning a relatively painful sunburn into a modestly decent tan. He takes peeled tomato slices, soaks them awhile in buttermilk, then applies them directly to the skin. They not only help to relieve the pain, but also close up the pores and turn the burn into some kind of a tan. | Andrew Chevallier See book keywords and concepts | C. longa, p. 88) are similar remedies.
