Herbal Remedy for Sore Throat/Strep Throat

A few weeks ago, some of us experienced feeling ill. One of the symptoms was a sore throat. We decided to try one of Mr. Christopher’s herbal remedies. Although this remedy was made to help strep throat, it can also relieve a sore throat. If you have garlic, raw honey and cayenne pepper on hand, it is quite simple to make.

Proportions
Decide how many proportions you will need to prepare.

• 1 Tablespoon of real honey
• 1/4 - 1/2 tsp cayenne
• 3-4 cloves garlic chopped up real fine

Directions

• Mix honey and cayenne together. Then add chopped up garlic.

Instructions for taking remedy

• Give 1/2 tsp of mixture at a time every 1/2 hour, chew it very well and swallow it. Do not wash it down with anything else. It is important for the ingredients to do their work.

The honey will stick itself to the esophagus, the Cayenne brings blood to the surface because it is a rubefacient, blood will rush to the area. The immune system that comes with the blood will get kicked into action. The garlic stimulates the immune system to be active. Garlic is also good since it is anti bacterial. This can be given during waking hours. I agree with Mr. Christopher when he says sleep is also medication, there is no need to wake up the child.

Mr. Christopher states that this procedure takes around 24 hours  every half hour to help relieve strep throat. It may take longer though.
