Here are some common illnesses and conditions that rice water is believed to help alleviate:

  1. Diarrhea: Rice water is known for its ability to soothe an upset stomach and alleviate diarrhea. It contains compounds that help bind stools and reduce bowel movements, providing relief from loose stools.
  2. Dehydration: Due to its electrolyte content, rice water can help rehydrate the body and replenish lost fluids during bouts of diarrhea or vomiting. It is often recommended as a gentle and easily digestible beverage for those recovering from dehydration.
  3. Nausea and Vomiting: The bland and soothing nature of rice water makes it a suitable remedy for nausea and vomiting. Sipping on rice water can help calm the stomach and alleviate feelings of queasiness.
  4. Fever: Rice water is believed to have cooling properties that can help reduce body temperature and provide relief from fever. Consuming rice water or using it as a compress on the forehead may help alleviate fever symptoms.
  5. Skin Irritations: Topical application of rice water is thought to help soothe skin irritations such as sunburn, rashes, and eczema. Its anti-inflammatory properties may help reduce redness, itching, and inflammation when applied to affected areas.
  6. Oral Health: Gargling with rice water is believed to help alleviate sore throat and promote oral health. Its mild antiseptic properties may help reduce inflammation and kill bacteria in the mouth, providing relief from soreness and discomfort.
  7. Digestive Issues: Rice water is often recommended as a digestive aid due to its high starch content, which can help coat the lining of the stomach and intestines. It may help relieve indigestion, bloating, and other gastrointestinal discomforts.

While rice water is generally considered safe for consumption and topical use, it’s essential to use it in moderation and consult a healthcare professional if you have any underlying health conditions or concerns. Additionally, always use clean, properly cooked rice water to avoid contamination and foodborne illness.

Oshiomhole Expresses Gratitude To PDP For Wike’s Appointment As FCT Minister

Adams Oshiomhole, former governor of Edo State, has sarcastically thanked the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for “giving” Nyesom Wike to the Tinubu administration.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

Oshiomhole, who also served as the former President of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), praised Wike for his developmental efforts and expressed gratitude to the PDP for allowing him to serve as Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) under the APC government.

Wike, previously a staunch PDP member, supported APC’s Bola Tinubu during the 2023 presidential election after a fallout with his party. As a reward for his support, Wike was appointed FCT Minister.

Oshiomhole compared the situation to a football club letting its “best player” join a rival team. “Thank you, PDP, for giving us Nyesom Wike to help us fix Abuja,” he said. “When you give your best player to another club, you pay a heavy price.”

The lawmaker representing Edo North also joked about the PDP’s decision, saying they didn’t ask for a transfer fee and hinted that the APC might not want to return Wike, even joking about setting up a toll gate to prevent it.

At a New Year luncheon in Port Harcourt, Oshiomhole praised Wike for his contributions to Abuja, highlighting his commitment to the rule of law and environmental regulations.
