There are all manner of natural antimicrobials, it might be time to become familiar. A kitchen spice rack is full of them if you know how to use them for that purpose. Salt, sugar, pepper, oregano, turmeric, bay leaf, on and on. Essential oil of oregano is a powerful one. Anything used to cure meats or pickle vegetables will kill bacteria, that’s why they work as preservatives with food.Yes! Bingo! These are most effective. We use Himalayan Salt from Mercola. And Young Living's Oil of Oregano as it is therapeutic (YL's Thyme is good too, but can raise BP); in fact, in order to get the best prices from YL, we became distributors. We get our tumeric (a liquid) from the Natural News guy, Mike Adams. It's great on egg salad, btw. And for anyone battling high blood pressure, we use cayenne tincture from "Buzz in a Bottle." All works very well. (We take garlic sometimes from Kyolic in extract form as well.) I haven't taken antibiotics in years and years.
I won't. They really blew it with HIV. They should have quarantined the first cases and instead went all PC about the bathhouses and gays donating into the blood supply. A lot of innocent people died, particularly hemophiliacs.
CDC won't cut the crap with these dubious flu vaccines either. They rarely have the right strain and the adjuvant systems are a real threat to immunological health (particularly squalene). Then they mandated HPV and hepatitis vaccines for small children when the only people who need them are the promiscuous or IV drug users.
Talk about stupid, I recently read about a study that said more than half of hospital personnel (doctors, nurses) do NOT wash their hands when going from one patient to another. Wonderful way to spread all kinds of infections.
If you are around some kind of bacteria you fear or are prescribed antibiotics, take extra ammounts of probiotic supplements that will help restore your immune system. I make my own salt brine pickles and kefir which supply these probiotics.
If you are infected with a mersa typed sore, get a small bottle of oil of oregano and dillute it with 2/3 olive oil. Apply the solution to sores or acne or whatever. If a bacteria caused the sore, oil of oregano will most likely take it away.
You can also use the oil a drop at a time on your toothbrush but beware it is very powerful.
“Don’t Open, Dead Inside”. Sounds like the vast majority of the DemocRats and RINOs in DC.
I have four rules regarding whether or not to go to see a medical professional for basic medical concerns:
1) Pain that does not respond to OTC medications/treatments
2) Fever that does not respond to OTC medications/treatments
3) Apparent broken bone(s)
4) Uncontrolled bleeding.
If any of the above applies to my current medical concern, I do see a doctor. One caveat, though, symptoms of stroke or heart attack will ALWAYS warrant a 9-1-1 call. Other than what has been referenced, I just tough stuff out.
ZOMBIES!
Onions are good too, and powder in both! English muffins, reg and sourdough flavored are really good toasted with butter or margerine and a little garlic powder shaken on it and spread in with a knife, mmm good!
I got my little 11 year-old granddaughter hooked on it too; which is strange for a child that age to like, one would think! I don’t put a lot of garlic powder on her’s or mine, just a little in the palm of my hand, then brushed on!
