Home Remedies for Staph Infection

I was recently asked if I knew of any natural/home remedies for Staph Infection, so after some research here's what I found:

There are 2 ways to approach your treatment ~ INternal & EXternal, to be used at the same time...

INTERNAL:
1) Garlic. Plain & simple. Whether you eat a clove a day or use suppliments/capsules that leave no odor. Garlic is God's amazing gift for healing.
2) Echinacea or Chamomile Tea. Drink several cups a day. Not only does it helps w/internal anti-bacterial healing, but it will make you 'go' & you will be flushing away some of that infection...literally!

EXTERNAL:
1) Wash, wash, wash. Keep the infected site clean. Use soap & water, Hydrogen Peroxide or alcohol; depending upon what you think is appropriate.

2) Here are few different topical applications:


~Soak the end of a Q-tip w/EITHER Tea Tree essential oil, aloe or Witch Hazel & apply directly to the infected site.


~Mix 1 TB honey with 1 ts tea tree oil & cover infected area w/the paste. If possible, put a clean bandage over it. Repeat a couple of times through the day.


~Mix 1/4 c. apple cider vinegar, 3 TB honey & 1 c. hot water. Soak a clean cloth in the solution, wring out & apply to the site. Use as a hot pack 3 times per day, using new solution & a clean cloth each time. When washing these cloths USE BLEACH.

    Hope you have a wonderful Friday!
