    Thank God! for your website. I had a severe sore throat bacterial infection. Difficult to swallow, difficult to eat. It hurt sooo bad. I don’t like taking pills/antibaitics. Though I know some are for the good. I fear taking them. Because some do more harm than good. Wow, Ginger root and honey works best for me. 4 cups water, 1″or 2″ of the natural ginger root. peel ginger & slice into small pieces. Boil for 20 minutes. Wait till cool-tap warm, then add 2-3 teaspoons of honey (found in your grocery stores) Mix well and drink as a tea 2 times a day. As yu feel better lessen your intake. Or if you choose make it a dayly part of your tea time. It even cleaned out my system from toxins. The toxins came out in spurts of sweats. My stomach feels great. And my throat infectin is getting better. Thanks for support.

    The idea is to remove thickened, diseased skin without damaging surrounding healthy tissue, and by so doing help the body to win over on the virus by removing the seat of the infection.
