Natural Sore Throat Remedy

DB here!! Ok it is the day after Christmas, you probably had some of grandmas favorite recipe cookies, a few more drinks and wine then normal and you are not up to par right? So what are you going to do? Let me share a thought or two on how I help my patients. First, get some salt, of course I really recommend Celtic Sea Salt, but right now you can use what ever you would like. Scoop at least a teaspoon of salt in eight ounces of warm water, put some in your mouth and gargle with it, then spit it out. Do this several times, I mentioned this in a previous blog. Today I want to share another nugget, there are two large muscles in the front of your neck that are quite ropey, they are your SCM muscles. I would suggest you lay on your back and genlty with your thumb and index finger start by squeezing from the top of the muscle down. What you are doing is draining the lymph channels and nodes if they are enlarged in your neck. This will assist your body in the cleanse. I would also, get some warm or even hot water and put a squeezed lemon wedge in it. Drink the water and eat the lemon. More often than not, people get sick when their body pH is acid. The lemon water will help you become alkaline. I know you are thinking the lemon is acid; trust me it ends up alkaline in your intestines. The ash from lemons is alkaline. Here is a long term maintenance thought, go to my link on products and look at the Agrisept-L. I personally take ten drops a day and have for years. Agriesept-L is a citric seed extract with lemon, grape fruit and tangerine. It is one of the BEST products we have ever used. Everyone in your family could use it. I have seen long term finger nail fungus go away on patients using it. Later. DB

Eggs, NOT EGG NOG!

DB here!! Well it is the day before Christmas Eve and most are scurrying around trying to get some last minute food items and gifts I am sure. Traditionally we make a huge batch of scrambled eggs on Christmas morning. Eggs are a great source of sulfur and protein. The egg yolk has lecithin in it which emulsifies the fat and cholesterol, much like dishwashing detergent. We also fry up some chicken sausage. I would suggest organic chicken sausage. I would much rather you have eggs and sausage then pastries and doughnuts. I fondly call doughnuts, “torpedoes” of death. You can also poach eggs. They are really easy to do, drop a dash of vinegar in the water and plop the egg in, let in cook a minute or so. You will know when it is ready. I would not drink eggnog. You are drinking instant calories, 250 per cup. OK one last nugget. I am making Turkey for Christmas Eve; I will sauté onions and celery today for the stuffing I will mix together tomorrow morning. I boil the neck in reverse osmosis water, and use the water from the boiling to add to the stuffing. I am going to add some raisins tomorrow just for the heck of it, maybe grind a few walnuts. Did you get your chestnuts? I will be cooking up some of those also. Check out the video. One last thing, Debbie just did four videos on cooking. Click HERE to check them out. We have rice oil, which we can send to you. It is light and tastes great. Try something different to eat this Christmas time. How about some kale, cut it up, dash some olive oil in, and throw it into a frying pan that you all ready have onions and mushrooms sautéing. Let me know what you try. Sweet potatoes are also…..very tasty. DB
