cold desert plant adaptations

My Christmas cactus is starting to bloom. I've been forcing it with exposure to lower temps. It's an indoor, so it might grow there, too. It is a marvel seeing a desert plant bloom.

"But of course, I can be at home anywhere that isn't freezing cold or desert dry..." Me to, but I got Vermont. LOL. I just can't see myself in Vermont.

ve had post-nasal drip, one cold with a cough that lasted about 8 weeks and now a constant tickling sensation in my chest, under and on either side of the breast bone. I also sometimes feel a tightness in my chest, not pressure or pain but discomfort, hard to explain. The post--nasal drip is constant and annoying as well as the ticklish feeling. I went to one doctor and he thinks allergies but I don't know-what could I be allergic to in the middle of the desert?

for the past 5 months on and off i have suffered from dry sores on the corners of my mouth after a while using cold sore lip cream it goes but then soon returns, its not contagious and not very painful but itchy and easy spreads and splits when i yawn !

About the cold. Certain paresthesias cold be worse in the cold, especially if the temperature sensing nerves are damaged. Also cold muscles do not function as well as warm ones, so people with MS will often see an increase in stiffness and spasticity in the cold.

minor in biochemistry, one and 1/2 years biophysics, 4 years PCMB (plant cellular molecular biology) and Plant pathology. My question (comment) mostly to the Dr.'s out there is why no discussion on cure or at least more than what you are talking about at the present. I KNOW of three areas that should be explored right off the bat!

My Husband made yellow rice beans and baked a roast. and for desert he made a vanilla ice cream mango .

I have recently got a new cat, and the first thing he does when he goes out, is sniff the cat nip plant. My last cat used to roll over and over on it, and look like she was in ecstasy. I guess it acts like a drug to cats. I know cats love toys filled with catnip, but if you haven't seen the pleasure the plant gives them, perhaps you would like to try growing it.

Depending on the time of the shower you could just do simple appetizers like a veggie tray, fruit, some little smokies warmed in BBQ sauce, and chips and dip. Or you could just get some cold cuts and do a sand which bar and a couple of salads....

If you know you have triggers like sun exposure or when you get a cold, you get a cold sore ( hence the nickname of cold sore), you can take a cold sore dose of antivirals to try to help ward off a full blown cold sore too.

I discarded the pumpkin but where the event occured, right by my front door step, a pumpkin seed survived and is now growing a luscious pumpkin plant. At first I was thrilled---------- how cool to grow my own pumpkins! It must be the absolute perfect spot as that plant is growing BIG and there are lots of flowers and pumpkins starting on it. Here is my question . . . well, it is taking over.

I have had cold sores for most of my life, and have become less frequent even if I run a fever or am stressed out. I had one earlier last week and it went away, all that was left was dried skin on my lip and no tingling or itching like a normal cold sore. I had sex with an old hookup later that week which included oral and vaginal. The next day I didn't feel any itchiness or anything out of the ordinary, plus I had shaved the day I had sex (both for the first time in months).

Thicker creams are often the preferred option for eczema patients, as moisturizing with thick cream will allow the patient more time between applications. Aloe vera gel, calendula cream and lotions containing chaparral (a desert plant used topically in Mexican folk medicine for skin conditions) are all recommended. Use mild soaps to clean the hands, and shower or bathe as quickly as possible. Maintain constant temperatures in the home.

I don't think it is cold weather since I live in a desert and its warm all the time and no I've never had a mammogram, I'm soon to be 18 I don't know if this helps but I also have small white marks around the middle of my breast, I believe they are stretch marks, but could it be that which is making me itch? Maybe there's something wrong?

Ive had really bad ingrown hairs but what gets rid of them easily for me is natural aloe vera, not the gel the real thing, the plant has tons of healing properties and it's amazing! Just take one of the arms of the plant and skin it open, rub all that mucous on top on the ingrown hairs, it's kinda disgusting but it will help a lot.

Cut the stems off, take em out of the dirt, store em in something like peat. If you live in a cold climate, in the fall, plant them. If you live in a warm zone, refrigerate them about six weeks before planting them. You can also plant them in layers in a bowl. This is really neat too. Happy Planting.

I am a carrier of GHSV1, female and had my first severe OB during the month of Feb 2014. I was tested positive from a swab test at Plant Parenthood. My first inital OB lasted for about a week (pretty short) and I was prescribed with Acyclovir 400MG and Lidocaine 2.5% and Prilocaine 2.5% cream from my local Plant Parenthood. After my outbreak..I felt very normal. No tingling sensation, no itching, zero symptoms. That was during March.

I did what your about to do in 2014 after 7 years of taking 24mg of suboxone I quit cold turkey. Be prepared to be sick for a few weeks. Are you alone in this or do you have someone that can help you, b/c I do feel like having help is necessary! Someone to maybe help push you. There were supplements that I took while I was detoxing i.e., magnesium, potassium, vitamin C (alot!), zinc.

So this is my 2nd yr living here I'm from desert weather and still adjusting to the weather (driving in snow ) and walking I kinda fall alot Lol anyone else scared bout the winter n being pregnant I'm going to be extra cautious but can't help being extra scared now that it's not just me.

Yup same here.

Given you say you eat a plant-based diet, how are your B12 levels? There is almost none in plant food. Another essential nutrient hard to get in plant only diets is methionine, an amino acid. These two nutrient deficiencies probably explains why there is only one vegetarian civilization we know of, which are Hindus, but they eat a lot of dairy so they obviously knew about this. The only vegan people are the Jains, a small religious group in India.

generally will weigh you, do a history of you and your partner.... they will probably do a pelvic exam and a pap smear. they might go over some adaptations you need to do...

green peppers (1 plant each), Jalapenos (1 plant), and cherry red hot peppers (1 plant)....So my journey has been filed with trial and error. My first error was waiting too long to pick my broccoli. They ended up flowering. I Googled this and found out that it was too late to pick them once flowered so now I know. (6 plants later..

I absolutely looveee bananas and last night at ten o clock I decided to make a desert to have the next day and I just tried it... one word.. DELICIOUS! :) hope you mommies try it.. it does need to set in the fridge it is a no bake desert so make it ahead of time or the night before :) You need 5 bananas 2 packs of instant banana creme pudding 4 cups of milk Whipped cream Vanilla wafers a desert pan Make the putting by adding the milk and instant pudding in a medium sauce pan.

I tried to reenact my steps previously, i realise it could be this plant that struck me when it was cold and wet with morning dew. maybe some insect was on it when i accidentally disturbed it. so i would like to confirm how a needlestick injury would look like. the area that is stung itched for awhile, then a bump appeared soon over a reddish patch.
