Home remedies: #1  Apple Cider Vinegar

The versatility of Apple Cider Vinegar is so marvellous. Taken in everyday, it is said to have illness preventative properties.  As a probiotic, gut health also benefits from this amazing kitchen staple.

Apple cider Vinegar is also excellent for:

• Bug Bites – apply directly on the insect bite.  This has been a remedy handed down in our family for generations!
• Vaginal Yeast Infection – Mix 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar to 8 ounces filtered water.   Use as a vaginal wash or in a douche.

Home remedies: #2 Garlic

An anti-bacterial and antiparasitic alternative to your regular antibiotics!  Chew garlic when you feel sick and it will do wonders to your health. You just need to get used to its taste obviously – and others to your breath – but that’s a small price to pay for wellness, right?

• Infection – use lots of garlic in your food all the time as preventive medicine and chew raw garlic for any systemic infection.
