Guest guest Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 I just want to report that between the olive leaf extract pills and this morning's smoothie, I am feeling much better. I probably had 4 or 5 cloves of garlic. > > > >Â > >Saw this at a smoothie booth (took a picture and added it albumbs).

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 absolutely great idea for a smoothie, working 3 jobs I definately can't afford to get sick (ER RN here, work full time and two days in two other Level 1 trauma ERs, total 60 hours a week). Working around sick people all the time, coughing on us, pooping on us, vomiting on us, bleeding on us we,the nursing staff, are exposed to everything. My full time job can fire us if we call off sick 3 times in a year. Crazy, with the exposure to infection that we get and such an expectation to be healthy. I've come into work many times with 102 temperatures as I can't afford to call off sick, exposing the patients to my illness on top of whatever they have, too. I have started taking garlic whole every day. Peel and swallow a whole clove every day with a meal. Done this about 6 months now. See no real benefits but still guess it's suppose to help so why not continue? No bad taste, no burping the smell either so why not? I like the idea of a good smoothie for CAGS. This has the 'apple a day' and vita c in it. anything else that should be added? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 Medically I don't know about CAGS, but it sounded interesting. However, I really, really believe in my Olive Leaf Extract for when I first start to feel sick. My only problem with Olive Leaf is I have never really found what the correct dosage should be. I only take it when I start to feel bad and for a few days afterwards. Not daily. Olive leaf is touted as a natural antibiotic. I personally have not had any side effects while using Olive Leaf. > > > absolutely great idea for a smoothie, working 3 jobs I definately can't afford to get sick (ER RN here, work full time and two days in two other Level 1 trauma ERs, total 60 hours a week).

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 I read a book by uber-nutritionist, Snyder (her book is " The Beauty Detox Solution " ). She says if you feel something coming on or are already sick to try her immunity tea and the ingredients are: about 1 heaping Tbs fresh ginger steeped in hot water for 2 min, then add 1/2 squeezed lemon (water should not be super hot), 1 (or if you can take it 2) shakes of cayenne pepper and then a little stevia to sweeten. http://www.kimberlysnyder.net/blog/2009/11/27/immunity-tea-with-cayenne-pepper-s\ tep-by-step-instructions/ Most of those ingredients are in the shake except the cayenne. By the way, I feel like this tea helped me avoid a cold that started comming on and I also gave the info to a co-worker when she was getting sick and she said it worked like a miracle for her too. > > > absolutely great idea for a smoothie, working 3 jobs I definately can't afford to get sick (ER RN here, work full time and two days in two other Level 1 trauma ERs, total 60 hours a week).

Swallowing it whole doesn't allow your body to absorb the healthful elements in the garlic. Jerri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Okay, I can't leave a recipe alone. Made this one this morning and here are my adaptations. 1 orange (from my tree) 1 lemon/lime (from my tree) raw honey ginger apple garlic, about 4 cloves and some frozen red grapes Very interesting and tolerable taste. Had anyone tried the original besides me? So far with this and my olive leaf, my cold is just a cold and hope it stays that way. > > Saw this at a smoothie booth (took a picture and added it albumbs).

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 We make a tincture called Super Tonic from a recipe gotten from /Shultz. It is equal parts:Hottest onions you can find hottest garlic you can findmixture of peppers: jalapeno, Serrano, habenaro, Anaheim gingerhorseradish Fill your vitamix to the top, add apple cider vinegar with the mother (this is important). Blend. Pour into jars, cover. Let sit for about 2 weeks; shake daily. Strain and store in glass jars with plastic lids (or metal lids with plastic wrap). We put it in dropper bottles. When ever we start feeling a cold coming, take 4 droppers every 15 minutes (I chase it with a little water). Then several times a day after that. We also take echinecia (sp?). This really seems to cut down the length and severity of colds in our house. RenaIf God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.Happy moments, praise God. Difficult moments, seek God.

Don't know if it was the olive leaf or the garlic smoothie, but whatever, I will take a 3 day cold any day.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 If you take the olive leaf as soon as you feel like you might be coming down with a cold, it'll stop it dead in it's track. So will grapefruit seed extract capsules.
