Diet & Weight Loss Review

Food is Good Medicine!

For three years, I have suffered from bronchitis about this time of year. Last year it turned into pneumonia and I thought I was going to die! Those bouts came on and I would end up at the medical doctor’s office to try to get some relief.

That totally went against my grain, as I believe that doctors are great for things like car wrecks and broken bones, but not for allergies, viruses, bacterial infections, and the like.

It occurred to me one day, that Jesus said in His Word, “ Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.” John 14:12 KJV

Well, in relation to healing, He NEVER ONCE healed with drugs, or surgery. So, I do not believe that drugs and surgery are the answer. I believe drugs are toxic, and dangerous, and not the best answer. That is simply what the medical doctors have been trained in. That does not mean they are the best answer, or the only answer.

People often turn to medicinal drugs in the hope and expectation of immediate relief from painful symptoms. Sometimes the symptoms are so uncomfortable that we “just have to have” instant relief.

If we have been careful and diligent in caring for what we have put in our bodies, we are less likely to have “dis-ease.” But what if we have not been kind to our bodies? What if we have let our immune system get run down? Is there any hope for those of us who want to find natural cures, and yet still need immediate relief?

The good news is that sometimes there is!

This year, our 12-year-old daughter developed a sore throat that went down into her chest. Now, every good mother wants to take away the pain from her child. So, what was I to do? Well, the solution was right in our cupboards! And no, it was NOT in the form of the remainder of an old prescription! Ha! How many of YOU have been THERE?

Would you like to know an easy remedy for sore throats? For bronchitis? For a cold?

(Now, you may be among those who believe that “the cold IS the cure.” That is why no one has found a cure for it! But, that is fodder for another article).

Would you like to save money? Would you like to save a trip to town to see the doctor? Would you like to have more power, more control, over your health and the health of your family members? Would you like a natural cure? Would you like a cure that did not even taste too bad?

You are no dummy, of course you would!

Here is what worked for my daughter. The results were amazing. She had been sick for 3 days before we started her on this remedy. We started her on it the third evening. The next day she was noticeably better, and the next day, she was completely better. It also worked for the children of a friend of mine, who became similarly ill about the same time. And, it worked wonders for me, as well. My sore throat developed into bronchitis and I was miserable. After two days on the following remedy, I am very much better. I am no longer concerned that my bronchitis may turn into pneumonia! Now, THAT is a blessing!

Fill a glass with about 4 to 6 ounces of warm water. Put about a teaspoon or so of raw honey in, and stir gently to mix. Then, add a few drops of Tabasco sauce, or other hot sauce, or a dash of red pepper. All ingredients are to taste. Use as much hot sauce as you can comfortably stand. Several times throughout the day, sip or gargle the mixture. Make fresh batches as necessary.

We also made sure to get plenty of rest and drank water, to assist our bodies in overcoming the illness.

As a side note, my husband did not get the sore throat. He almost never gets sick. He does, however, eat garlic and hot peppers on a regular basis, as well as raw honey. So, this remedy can be both a preventative, and a curative one.

Please note that I am not a doctor. You are responsible for your own actions and for whatever action you chose to make based on this information.

Have you had similar experiences with “home remedies?” I would love to hear your comments! See you in the forum!
