What did your family teach you?

Every family has a remedy: ajwain for a heavy stomach, haldi in milk, mehndi in summer. Tell us yours. Editors read them to plan articles on how families across the region use these traditions.

Please don't include names of other people, phone numbers, addresses, medical reports, prescriptions or anything about your own health history. We don't need it, and we delete it if we find it.

Please remember: a tradition being popular doesn't prove it works. When we write about reader traditions we label them as tradition, next to what the evidence says.

Nothing you send is published automatically, and never without that box ticked.
