| Question: | What' s your view on grapefruit seed extract? |
| Answer: | An essential item in your natural medicine chest, grapefruit seed extract is a powerful anti-viral, anti-fungal and anti-bacterial agent without anything like the damaging effect on beneficial gut bacteria that conventional antibiotics have. I never go travelling without it, and have often seen it sort out stomach bugs in hours. The extract can be used to treat many kinds of infection, from earaches to stomach bugs, and even athlete' s foot.
It comes in drops, capsules, eardrops and a nasal spray. To fight an infection you need 10 drops, two or three times a day. It doesn' t taste great, so either have it with some fruit juice or opt for capsules. Gargle with it if you have a sore throat. You can even use it to worm your pets! |
