Garlic: The Top Natural Antibiotic
Roxanne lamented that she needed to find a natural antibiotic for her 14 y.o. daughter who was diagnosed with PANDAS when she was ten.
PANDAS is a disease caused when the strep bacteria crosses the blood brain barrier, usually a powerful block to any bacteria or viruses getting into the brain.
PANDAS Â can be excruciatingly difficult to diagnose because the symptoms are related to so many different possible causes: constant regurgitation, flares of anger and mood swings, other OCD behaviors, fever and sore throat, severe fatigue.
The treatment, one which is simply not a good idea, is continuous antibiotics to prevent any other bacteria or viruses from triggering the symptoms,.
Of course, garlic is probably the top food-as-natural-antibiotic, but what teenager is going to chew raw garlic! Second up: Oil of Oregano. Â Tried it. Hated it.
Needless to say, we’re still looking for the best option to include these traits:
Inexpensive to make. Easy to take.
Works like Magic. Tastes fantastic.
