You are probably well aware of the risks of over using and abusing prescription drugs and more importantly, antibiotics. A growing population of Americans have developed a resistance to the synthetic compounds in conventional synthetic antibiotics which can turn even the most basic of colds into a life threatening infection.
Some say that the fault lies with doctors who all too frequently rely on these “wonder” pills to solve any and all ailments – a temporary and volatile remedy. Others blame the poor practice of pharmaceutical companies looking to produce a low cost pill for high profits with no stringent regulations.

The truth is that both doctors and pharmaceutical companies have financial interest in the popularity of antibiotics, and regardless of health risks, will push them on the public (and livestock) to insure demand stays profitable.
How can we escape this culture of chemical care? The answer is easier and more effective than any synthetic pill and can be made right in your own home.
Tinctures have been around for thousands of years and long before scientific advancements, these powerful herbal medicines were used to destroy harmful bacteria without weakening the natural immune defences in the body.
Traditional tinctures use 80 proof alcohol for sterility and potency, but glycerin or apple cider vinegar can work just as effectively.
Here is a quick breakdown of the ingredients needed for this amazing all-natural antibiotic, anti-fungal and anti-viral tincture:
- 1 Fresh Habanero Pepper
- 1 Whole Garlic Bulb
- 1 Medium White Onion
- 1 Medium Ginger Root
- 1 Medium Horseradish Root
-
- Turmeric Root
- Raw Apple Cider Vinegar
Although the method to making this powerful medicine is simple, it does take some time so don’t wait until you feel a looming cold or infection, brew up a batch right away! Also, because you will be soaking these ingredients to pull out all of their essential elements, it is extremely important that you use organic produce.
Method:
- Peel and mince ginger, horseradish, and turmeric root.
- Place herbs in a large mason jar and cover with apple cider vinegar.
- Place sealed jar in a cool dark space for 2-6 weeks (the longer the stronger).
- Next peel and chop the onion, garlic and hot pepper – not too small as you will need to strain (use protection!)
- Add veggies to mixture, seal and shake.
- Let sit again in a cool dark space for upwards of a month.
- Strain and use in small quantities at the first sign of bacterial infection.
