How do you make a natural heating/ cooling pad?

Issue
I need to know what to put in the fabric

Best Tip

For the heating pad i take a dish towel wet it then put it in the microwave for about 40 secs...then i put it in a gallon size bag wrap it in clothe and use it till it cools...since you should only use heat or cold for 15 minutes at a time alternating between the two...this last sjust long enough for that. You can take one part rubbing alchohol and one part water put into a gallon baggie freeze...since alchohol doesnt freeze it will be gel like...works great for those places you cant put hard ice cubes up against..like your forehead or back....hope this helps...remember these are only temp.Rice or Corn...corn retains heat better, but is more dusty than rice.
I make these all the time.
uncooked rice works for both-
hot ( heat in microwave for few minutes )
and cold
( take out of freezer when needed)
