After all, I’m NOT a health care provider and that is NOT medical recommendation, however right here’s care for it at residence your self.
That is pleasant recommendation from lil’ ole me…who efficiently raised three youngsters who are actually adults with no single spherical of antibiotics.
On this poisonous pill-popping tradition of ours, I take into account this one in every of my life’s biggest achievements that reveals that it undoubtedly CAN be achieved!
Exterior Therapy
Each guardian wishing to interrupt the cycle of health-destroying antibiotics for his or her youngsters actually must know that the allicin in garlic is probably the most potent pure antibiotic there’s.
It selectively targets pathogens, leaving any good microbes alone (not like colloidal silver and others touted within the different well being neighborhood).
To deal with impetigo externally, merely mix the next answer in a small glass bottle or bowl: (3)
- 3 common power Allimax capsules (180 mg every)
- 18 drops of filtered water

If you happen to choose to purchase allicin-infused liquid as a substitute of creating it your self (more cost effective), you should purchase it right here.
That’s it!

The instructed dose is 4 allimax capsules per day in a divided dose (2 am/2 pm). (4)
To keep away from abdomen upset (allicin is a powerful type of sulfur), it’s instructed to take the capsules with a meal.
If the kid can not swallow small capsules but, you possibly can take drops from the answer above internally as nicely (simply combine up extra if wanted).
Six drops equates to 1 allimax capsule (180 mg of allicin).
Observe: Utilizing uncooked garlic is not going to be as efficient. A single allimax capsule comprises roughly the identical quantity of allicin as over two dozen garlic cloves!
Ought to Everybody within the House Be Handled?
The generally accepted college of thought is that family and friends who’ve come into contact with a toddler who has impetigo ought to all be handled to forestall the “unfold” of the an infection.
Nevertheless, my method is to solely deal with these with an energetic an infection.
I name it the “do nothing method” to sickness that I realized from my nation physician Dad.
In a nutshell, adopting a “wait and see” method provides the immune system the chance to strengthen and get stronger within the presence of a problem.
For this reason youngsters who play outside barefoot in (unsprayed) grass and dust have far stronger immune programs than youngsters who play inside in sterile environments.
Additionally it is why youngsters who drink uncooked milk have stronger immunity than youngsters raised on sterilized, pasteurized milk.
