Natural Antibiotic Foods – Garlic, Honey, Lemons

February 10, 2008

*************************************************************
GARLIC, LEMON, HONEY NATURAL ANTIBIOTIC
************************************************************* 
My friend Marg brought this healthy recipe over, and also gave me a prepared jar of it.  It is delicious!!  Well, I love garlic! Anyway, she shared with other mutual friends and they got great results with sore throats, colds, etc. 
The ingredients are easy and readily available.
ORGANIC SALAD DRESSING
*********************************** 
We had a potluck supper.  I took 2 tablespoons of the formula, and added it to olive oil and some Italian herbs, and some water, and a whole avocado, and whizzed it in the blender.  It made a delicious and healthy and organic salad dressing, and it was a hit at the potluck, along with the delicious organic salad I brought. Here are Marg’s words: 
‘I had a very bad cough for over two weeks and could not get rid of it.  I took the following mixture for three days. 1 tsp first thing in the morning and 1 tsp before I went to bed.  The cough was totally gone in three days.  For children I would give them a ½ tsp. twice a day. 
A NATURAL ANTIBIOTIC CONSISTING OF FOOD:(We all know how good the three following ingredients are for us.)
1 Cup of liquid honey, unpasteurized
2 Whole heads of organic garlic, peeled. (there will be approximately 20 corns) 
3 Organic lemons. (because you use the whole lemon, except the seeds) Other lemons are sprayed with chemicals. I cut the lemons in eights and remove the seeds. 
Put everything in a blender and blend for about 5 minutes.  I did blend it longer the first time but it still does not turn totally to liquid.  The garlic and lemon do not totally break down.  You will see what I mean when you make this mixture.  I do not find it unpleasant to take.  You could make up a half batch to test it.  I will keep a batch in my refrigerator during cold and flu season, from now on. It should be kept in the refrigerator. I have put a teaspoon on my salads.  It is quite tasty and has a fresh tang to it.’ *************************************************************
Thank you, Marg, for sharing this with us! If anyone else has a favorite home remedy made with natural foods, I would love to hear from you.  Also, if you make up Marg’s formula, please let us know your results! Diana Walker, Cravings Coach

    I got severe tootache pain which caused by bacteria inside my wisdoom tooth which occur in the root canal.
    I keep doing searching for an answer as Dentist recommendation not satisfy me and doesnt really tell the root cause.
    Its in the middle of the night finally i found an article about bacteria which cause so much pain for the root canal (http://www.ehow.com/video_4399706_what-purpose-root-canal.html)
    unfortunately i couldnt find any antibiotics to kill the bacteria in the middle of night. I search for natural foods which act as anti-biotics and “Haleluyah” I find this website (http://thecravingscoach.com/blog/natural-antibiotic-foods-garlic-honey-lemons/) which taught about lemon / honey / garlic as natural foods which act as antiobiotics.

    I only have honey and lemon at the time I read this article, and straight away I gulp 1 spoon of honey and purposely aim it to the teeth which has causing the whole day nerve pain, and Prais the Lord .. out of sudden the pain is disappear.

    I hope this can be helpful for you…

    Best Regards,

    I have had an inner ear problem for a couple of weeks now – very swimmy-headed and balance is off. I know an antibiotic prescription would probably take care of this, but would prefer an organic / natural way of solving the problem. Does a remedy exist for inner ear problem? I’m tired of swimming outside the pool!

Got something to say?
