Nature's remedies for strep throat

Recipe:

• 1 TBSP. Raw Honey
• 1/4-1/2 tsp. Cayenne
• 3 Cloves Grated Garlic

Directions:

Mix honey and cayenne together.  Add the garlic.  Chew and swallow 1/2 tsp. of this mixture every half hour.  This effectively kills the strep bacteria.

Throat and Tonsil Tincture

You can also make a Throat and Tonsil Tincture.  Make one pint of  echinacea tea.  While the tea is still hot, stir in 1/2 cup fig syrup and 1/4 tsp. cayenne.  Add 1/4 tsp. of peppermint oil.  Stir well.

Mix 2 droppers of this tincture with 4 droppers of water.  Gargle and swallow every hour.  For a smaller child, mix 1 dropper of tincture with 3 droppers of water and administer hourly.

Throat Gargle

If you are experiencing pain from strep throat, mix a solution of 1/4 tsp. salt and a 1/4 cup very hot water.  Stir to dissolve the salt and gargle.  Spit out the solution after each gargle.  Do this hourly if needed.  Adding 1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper to this solution will also help with pain.
