  2. And apply it freely to the hair
  3. Leave for 10-15 minutes until your hair absorbs the mixture completely and rinses.

9. Extending the life of plants

Did you know that you can postpone the wilting of cut plants by simply adding crushed aspirin to their base? Sounds like a crazy idea, but that’s right! Several studies have shown that when plants are cut, they produce an accurate amount of salicylic acid.

A small amount helps plants overcome the problems they face — whether they are dehydrated, malnourished, attacked by insects or disease control. Salicylic acid acts as a support for the immune system and gives it a better chance of survival.

10. Increase plant immunity

Garden workers at the University of Rhode Island spray a mixture of aspirin water (3 aspirin tablets, 4 gallons (15.14 liters) of water) in specific botanical gardens once every 3 weeks, leaving the monitoring group untreated.

The results showed that gardens treated with aspirin mixture resulted in more vegetables, and were larger than those found in their untreated counterparts. Try it yourself. You’ll be amazed by the results!

Salicylic acid should not be used on the face or on moles, marks, warts from which hair grows or genital/anal warts.
