‍LEMON JUICE GARGLE

• ‍‍Do gargling of freshly squeezed lemon juice—best done when lying on your back.
• Take a tablespoon or two of lemon juice in the mouth, and lie down to gargle gently.
• When one mouthful slips down, add more fresh lemon juice.

Continue this way for several minutes—to finish off the juice from two or more lemons.

You may also be helped by drinking several glasses of lemon juice diluted by a lot of water through the day.‍

‍

GARLIC

• ‍‍Steam 6 - 12 garlic cloves—peel and place in a cooking pan, add a little water, not over 1/8" deep—the garlic pieces about half or less submerged.
• Cover the pan well to completely contain the steam.
• Put it on the heat, where the water will start to boil before a minute is up (very little water as required).
• Let it steam for two minutes.
• Then turn off the heat, and let it sit with its own steam another few minutes.

The garlic should be slightly soft and without a spicy hot taste when you eat it.

This garlic dose should be taken twice a day.‍

‍

GOLDENSEAL AND ECHINACEA TEA

• ‍‍Bring 1 pint of water to a boil.
• Remove the water from the heat, and add 1 tablespoon each of goldenseal and echinacea.
• Stir to wet, let steep, and strain after 15 minutes.
• Drink this slowly over the next 24 hours.

Make a new batch each day.
