Do you frequently get canker sores?
First, be mindful of what not to eat while you have a canker sore in your mouth: chocolate, cheese, yogurt, whey, beef and veal, cured meats, sausages, hot dogs, peanuts, cashews, bananas, egg yolk, melon, and cantaloupe.
Try to include cooked apple, digestive salad, and fat-burning salad in your diet.
What are the home remedies for this issue?
– Throughout the day, chew a single cardamom pod like gum and swallow it at the end.
– Chew fresh cilantro or tarragon leaves like gum.
– Rinse your mouth several times a day with one of the following:
• Coriander distilled water
• A thick decoction of teffseeds and myrtle
• Pomegranate peel tea
To prepare a rinse: Boil 1 handful of fresh cilantro leaves with ¼ tsp cardamom or coriander seeds in 1 cup of water for 5–10 minutes. After cooling and straining, rinse your mouth with it several times a day.
Another remedy:
Mix ¼ tsp turmeric + ¼ tsp coriander seed powder + 1 tsp honey and apply this paste directly on the ulcer. It may sting initially, but it helps heal the ulcer faster.
