Home Remedy for DetoxFebruary 14, 2014

Home remedy for your cold season medicine chest

If you start to feel under the weather—colds, flus too much acid forming food and drink, here’s a good remedy you can make out of your own kitchen.

Take your natural antibacterial, anti inflammatory, anti fungal out of the pantry/refrigerator: garlic, turmeric, ginger, red pepper and add to a quart of unrefined apple cider vinegar. Blend in high powered blender or vitamix. Add chili powder or cayenne to desired pungency. Add honey or agave for balanced sweetness. This will keep even the most virulent bugs out of your body.

When we make the detox vinegar at mountain spirit herb, we add roots that purify the blood—fresh harvested dandelion, burdock and yellow dock. Vinegar is a milder extraction of these blood cleansers than alcohol but it has its own medicinal properties high in potassium it helps your body turn alkaline and absorb calcium—thus a classic remedy for arthritis.
