Cinnamon And Garlic For Health

[Guest guest]

I like the raw Garlic ounce a week. It helps clear up many things for me. You

can just swallow it, or the way I do it is cut up a clove and hold it under your

tongue or in the side of your cheek for as long as you can. If it gets to warm

or irritating drink something cool with it. When it subsides bite down the

garlic again to get that alicillian (SP)going again then swallow when your done.

I have used to clear my head,sore throat, infected tooth,Joint pain, bursitis in

my shoulders, (I have not had any pain for years) Leg pain and its great for the

gut. Check with your doc because it can thin the blood a little. All of these

little aches and pains are gone in 30 min's or at least the next day, with the

brain fog, Many people at work think I was nuts but come back the next day

thanking me. Most of the time it last for weeks.It works for me an many others.

I have never had anyone say you smell of GARLIC

Cinnamon Helps Lower Blood Sugar Levels.

Multiple studies have shown that cinnamon is the single best natural form of

blood sugar control. Cinnamon (the water based extract type appears to be most

effective) helped lower blood sugar levels between 10 and 30 percent. Cinnamon

alone won't allow you to discontinue your prescriptions but it's a big step in

the right direction. Always consult with your health care provider before

embarking on a new path. Low blood sugar can cause problems too.

Cinnamon has also been used for centuries to treat colds and influenza. Start

with a saucepan, add two cups of water, a stick, or equivalent of powdered

cinnamon or cinnamon extract, plus two drops of clove oil, or a few leaves of

fresh clove leaves and slow boil for about three minutes. Remove from the heat

and add some dark honey or molasses, one formula includes two tablespoons of

good quality whiskey but that's your choice. After the mixture has cooled

sufficiently, so as not to destroy vitamin C, add two tablespoons of lemon

juice. Drink half a cup every three to four hours.

If you don't have a head cold or flu but do a fungal infection, cinnamon has

anti-fungal properties both externally and when taken internally. A few drops

of cinnamon oil can help if you have athlete's foot and can fight internal

fungus infections like the overpopulation of candida albicans (C. albicans),

known as candidiasis or thrush, when taken as a tea.

C. albicans is a diploid fungus, meaning it's a form of yeast, and is part of

the normal gut flora. C. albicans lives in about 80% of the human population

with no harmful effects, although an overgrowth can result in candidiasis.

Diets high in sugars can cause an overgrowth of candida.

Candidiasis can range from superficial to systemic to potentially

life-threatening. Immunocompromised, such as AIDS, cancer, organ and bone

transfer recipients and chemotherapy patients are more susceptible to blood and

other systemic fungal infections (fungemias).

My personal experience with candidiasis stemmed from a recommended high sugar

diet while attending an Olympic training camp seminar. The diet contained large

amounts of sugar, sugary foods at every meal and at least one large tablespoon

of honey first thing in the morning. That diet put a person on a sugar rush

and, in order to maintain it, you had to continue consuming lots of sugar.

Everyone I knew on that type diet eventually burned out and had health problems

of some sort from mild to life threatening.

Males aren't supposed to get candidiasis, according to some authorities. I

consulted with various doctors, including a sports specialist, and didn't find

out what the problem was until I read a book on the subject.

The doctor who wrote the book listed all the pharmaceuticals and their side

effects. At the end of the book he mentioned, as and aside, that raw garlic did

as well or better than any pharmaceutical and there were no medical side

effects. The only side effect I experienced was people keeping more distance

between me and them than usual. In some instances, that was fine with me. I

hadn't heard or read about cinnamon being an effective fungal fighter or I would

have tried it first.

Garlic can be easily home grown outdoors during nice weather and indoors during

the winter in pots.
