RE: Red Amaryllis - Day 247 - Haiku - My Entry for the “Natural Medicine Love it Up” Contest
Haha! I remember big harvests of the stuff from my mom. When it go good it goes crazy! I will be really interested to see how this year turns out for you.
I did not know about the ant-fungal properties. That is a plus for me and my health issues. thank you for the tip :)
That's one of the most amazing things about horseradish, is that it is antimicrobial, antiviral and antifungal, all in one.
As are honey, garlic, turmeric and ginger, not to mention apple cider vinegar, which is why I included all of the above when I made my fire cider. And it explains why fire cider has always been so amazing at boosting the immune system and restoring health.
This time I'll include black seed (Nigella sativa), which shares those properties as well.
But for a quicker fix, that you can use without having to wait for weeks or months, mix equal parts raw unfiltered honey and apple cider vinegar, say a cup of each, and add 12 - 16 cloves of raw garlic, peeled, then blend together in a blender until the garlic is minced so finely as to become effectively part of the liquid.
Ideally, you want to let it age for at least a few days before using, to allow the flavors to meld, but you can use it immediately in a pinch. My advice is to stir a spoonful into a glass of water or juice.
Later, after it has aged, you can take it straight if you prefer, or even use it as the basis of a really outstanding salad dressing. In any case, always shake well before using, to make sure you're getting the most benefit possible.
The combination is even said to be great at eliminating candidiasis, though it isn't an overnight fix, but it's gentler than many of the chemical methods out there.
Here's you your greatly improved health! ;-)
Oh my goodness. Thank you for this great info, @crescendoofpeace. I am late to my replies and so glad to see this. Copying into my health folder now.
I have made something similar to your fire cider in the past and used it for salad dressing too. That is a wonderful flavor for medicine and I am so glad you reminded me!
You're welcome!
It's always my pleasure to share knowledge, and so often it is as you say . . . we already know, we simply need reminding.
And yes, fire cider is delicious when made properly, and I'll take that over antibiotics any day.
MRSA is no match for nature's bounty. ;-)
