How to Make the Most Powerful Natural Antibiotic

Herbal tinctures are typically an alcoholic extract of plant or
animal material. One of the best solvents you can find in any home is
VINEGAR. Being acidic is a better solvent for obtaining alkaloids then
most of industrial products. The general method of preparation (herbal
tinctures) is really simple: the herbs are put in a container (a jar),
the vinegar is added and then the jar is left to stand for 2–3 weeks
and shaken occasionally in order to maximize extraction. Here is an
amazing antibiotic, antiviral, vermifuge, anti-fungal (and a lot of
other health benefits as listed below):
You’ll need:
1.
Apple Cider Vinegar contains Malic Acid which is an antifungal,
antibacterial, antiviral, and also supports energy production which
increases mental and muscle functioning. It strengthens the immune
system and regulates the acid/alkaline balance. It also aids the
digestive tract- if the apple cider is organic and unfiltered (see: How
to make Apple Cider Vinegar at Home – easy) it will contain small
amounts of ‘mother’ colony (bacteria and yeast) which is an amazing
probiotic. More so, it is known to reduce cholesterol and blood
glucose levels.
2. Fresh Hot Peppers contain capsaicin (The
hotter the chili, the more capsaicin) a substance known for keeping
immature fat cells from developing into full-fledged ones (Burns off
FAT cells) and for boosting metabolism. It also contains Vitamin C
(helps the immune system) and a wide range of B Vitamins. A study in
the British Journal of Nutrition showed that adding hot chilis to
daily meals protects against cholesterol (forming) in the blood.
3. Garlic contains allicin, an antibiotic and anti-fungal compound
that protects it against pests. Allicin helps treating sore throats,
colds, flu, poor digestion and it is a potent antiseptic and
antimicrobial agent effective against many types of infection. Above
all, it really helps your immune system and you won’t be caching colds
that easy. (see: How
to make Medicinal Pickled Garlic)
4. White Onions contains
Quercetin (just like Allicin for Garlic), a substance known for its
health benefits. Quercetin is an effective anti-inflammatory agent
(study in the journal International Archives of Allergy and Applied
Immunology). Quercetin has been found to relax the airway muscles and
may provide a relief when caching a cold (or for asthma symptoms). It
also acts as an antioxidant, protecting the body against free radicals
and boosting your immune system.
5. Ginger has a long tradition of being very effective in
alleviating symptoms of gastrointestinal distress. In herbal
medicine, ginger is regarded as an excellent carminative (a
substance which promotes the elimination of intestinal gas) and
intestinal spasmolytic (a substance which relaxes and soothes the
intestinal tract). Modern scientific research has revealed that
ginger possesses numerous therapeutic properties including
antioxidant effects, an ability to inhibit the formation of
inflammatory compounds, and direct anti-inflammatory effects.
6. “Horseradish Root juice or sauce (extracted from horseradish
root) has been used effectively to relieve sinus discomfort. The
traditional treatment for sinusitis is to “take a half teaspoonful of
grated horseradish sauce without dilution both morning and afternoon.
Do not drink anything or eat for at least ten minutes after the dose.
There will be a powerful feeling in the head, followed by a sensation
of the sinuses clearing, sometimes accompanied with sweating and
perhaps tearing.
Due to its antibiotic properties, horseradish can also be used to
treat urinary tract infections (UTI) and destroy bacteria in the
throat that can cause bronchitis, coughs and related problems.
Additionally, horseradish stimulates the body to eliminate urine, so
bacteria or other inflammatory agents in the bladder may be flushed
out sooner than they normally would be eliminated.”
How to Extract the Tincture
1. Peel and chop the Onions and the Garlic.
2. Grate the Ginger and the Horseradish Root
3. Toss the Onions, the Peppers and the Garlic into the blender or
processor and wreak havoc!
4. Add all crumbled ingredients into one gallon jar and pour raw
Apple Cider Vinegar until it’s fully filled.
5. Shake it every day for at least 2 weeks. The longer it stays in
the jar the stronger it will be. the substance will be.
6. After at least 2 weeks, strain the substance. You can use a
press or simply a gauze cloth.
7. Store the substance in small bottles in a dark place You can
start drinking it daily (two times a day). Mix it with honey if you
find it to strong.
