What you don't know about milk?


I read an article from a local newspaper about the Chinese traditional use of milk. I thought that I would share with all of you.

1) Canker Sore/ Month Ulcer

     -> Damp cotton ball in cold milk. Gently cover the sore/ ulcer area for 15 minutes.
          ( Cold milk can help reducing swelling; Protein in milk can aid in sore recovering)

2) Psoriasis
   
      -> Warm milk under low heat for 3 minutes. Carefully pour milk into a container. Gently tear down the layer of milk film created on the wall of the pot. Apply the milk film on the infected area, improvement may seen after multiple use.


3) Sunburn

  -> Combine milk and water in the ratio of 50:5. Gently apply on infected area for 15 to 20 minutes. 2 to 3 times a day.



Isn't it interesting to learn about other use of milk? I personally have not tried using milk to treat any above health condition; I do not know if actually these methods will work. Considering that milk is a natural food that human consume in a daily basis, I would assume that these methods won't cause harm to human body.

I didn't find any scientific articles supporting these methods, you guys can take it as a reference.
