How long will it last in the fridge?
Thank you so much for the recipe❤
I really wish you would write a homesteaders remedy and recipe book
Yess!!!!
I would buy it
I would pre buy if it would help finance the book
i agree💗
Guys the recipes are from Be your own Doctor II and Be Your Own Pediatrician Book. They're identical. Buy those books
This should be calming to someone with covid19. I, myself, take garlic regularly. Great salve!
Thank you for the recipes! One of my daughters came down with a terrible cold and cough over the weekend. I found using an immersion blender to blend the salve ingredients in a deep coffee mug worked much better for me for mixing the salve than my Vitamix with its 64 ounce pitcher. The Vitamix iwas simply too big to bring such a small amount of ingredients in contact with the spinning blades. We’ll see how it works. Right now DD, 10, is disappointed she can’t hide in our family game of hide ‘n seek tonight. Everyone says they can smell her even before they see her, lol!
Hi Mam. Glad to hear they feel better enjoy family time God bless you
You are an answer to prayers! I am 74 , heathy , walked 2 miles a day, at organic and took vitamins for years . Covid knocked me out! 27 days but I’m slowly recovering . Now, I’ve got flu symptoms. Taking ascorbic acid powder every three hours w raw zinc. Thanks for the tips.
Hi Maryann stypa I hope you feel better now and how's it going please take care better to stay at home .cheers byee
.
i finally went out to the supermarket today cause i have a small cough and i made one of your recipes for cough, im sipping on right now, and yes it works ❤ thank you carolyn 😊
On Wednesday night my son was coughing that croupiers cough, all day yesterday he had a croup cough and runny eyes and nose. I used the young children garlic salve and it broke things down that was making him so congested. I absolutely love this method and definitely glad I found it ❤ thank you!
My mother mixed dry mustard with flour or cornstarch and put it on a cloth on my chest to loosen the tmcingestion. When I got pneumonia and could not tolerate any of the five antibiotics the Dr prescribed I took raw onion and cantaloupe. In two weeks my lungs were clear and my Dr was surprised.
It was called mustard plaster. Back in the 60s
Have you ever tried sage tea, just take some dried sage leaves pour boiling water on it and let it steep for 5 to 8 min sweeten to your taste and drink. It gives me relief for 4 to 6 hours.
sage tea is awesome for sore throats. thats what i use.
@@rachelshomemakeithomestead2826 Does it matter what kind of sage you have or can any sage plant be used? I have the one with the rounded soft leaves.
When cold or flu strikes the first thing I do is get to making chicken soup with lots of onion and garlic celery and carrots and I add the sage ( fresh) to the soup along with some spinach. I serve it with a squeeze of fresh lemon
It usually will address whatever ails you, cough, runny nose,congestion, fever, sinus headache
Thank you!!! This is helpful! My mom used to make us a garlic necklace using thread and whole garlic cloves every time we had a fever. Our necklace would be “cooked” by the time we woke up in the morning. 😆
Alien mummy found in Russia
🥳👍
Glad she's better take care
Hi! Do you peel the garlic cloves before threading them? Or doesn't it matter?
Thanks! 💜
@@Lotus-Subliminals-Shorts LOL! What a question! It's hard to remember... but I think she did peel them
I want to do what you do so bad. But I need to find a lady willing to do it with me. Thank you for sharing your story and life with me and the world. You really are special and I appreciate all the time and effort you put into showing this life FOR FREE.
Hell I pay 20 dollars to see bad movies that did nothing but waste my time. But you guys ask for nothing. If you have a PayPal or some kind of donation service I would be happy to give.
Great video!! The videography is awesome! The tips are so good for keeping us healthy during this viral season. Thanks for sharing and God bless y’all❤️
So glad to have the garlic salve! Most people do not realize that the skin is an organ and how useful it is to help treat your insides! Do you know how long the garlic will stink on you afterwards? If you wash, will it fade awaay quickly or no? Somethig tells me it will take time. Just wondering how long!
Awesome! I like to add peppermint essential oil to my drinking water when dealing with a cough.
As for garlic, best remedy ever! I crush it, float it in a tablespoon or two of water and shoot it, then chase it with something more palatable. What I didn't know was a non-oral way to garlic into my kids, thanks!
If your going to eat it you should use peppermint extract, it has a better more even flavor 😊 plus essential oils aren't always made to food safe standards
Awesome 💯💯💯💥
Thank you so much for this! You're a life saver! God bless 🙏💗
Thank you 😊 also eat Crystallized ginger 3x a day
I extremely like the video, man. Very helpful and informative. Thank you very much. It is presented so well too. Great, positive work.
I love this. Thank you very much.
Please keep these types of videos coming xxx
Thanks for the home made therapy.
Thank you, Carolyn 🙋♀️❤👍
Thanks for these recipes. I just posted one for elderberry syrup
Awesome! Big warm thank you 🌻
It worked!!! Thank you!!
It seems that the cold and flu season gets worse every year. Thank you for posting these natural remedies. I have everything in my kitchen❤
I've made all of them and will be using on my kiddos today😊 hoping for a speedy recovery.
Do you by chance have something for congestion that's simple easy everyday ingredients that you wouldn't mind sharing with me?
Here is one: homesteadingfamily.com/steam-inhalation-for-congestion-sinus-nasal-chest/
That would be great.....the book and recipes.
awe thanks i just made your first remedy at it worked well pretty awesome
Sounds Great. Will try. Like how it’s natural ingredients. Thank you🌹.
Very helpful video! Thank you!
Thank you so much! I love your knowledge!
Thanks your remedy is life saving ❤ 🙏 .
I absolutely love your videos ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you
Thankyou. bless you and your family.
Thank you.
New syrups! Thank you!!
I could smell the garlic through the screen 😂
I know this would be just your personal opinion but would like it anyway! How long do you and Josh stay on natural remedies before finally going to doctor? Or do you always stick with nature? The kids and I have been having a wet cough and sore throat for 15 days. Have tried elderberry, vitamin c, Echinacea Zinc tablets, plenty of rest, hot teas with apple cider vinegar and cayenne....etc. I really don't want antibiotics but am getting hopeless. Thanks
Get that kid to a doctor. Herbal remedies assist but when they aren't working you need stronger stuff!
Try also colloidal silver, is very good but if you are allergic to silver you can’t take it, colloidal kill virus and bacteria and regardless what the website said about the effectiveness, I been using it for everything and it works miracles! I drink this every day and give this to my grandkids and is been a life saver . 😊
Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you, ma'am I APPRECIATE ya. 👍
For the vinegar with the herbs do you heat it up first then let it set a few weeks or just put the herbs in the vinegar cold and let it set? I love your videos. Please do make a book of home remedies!
I had the same question.
Can you write recipe in description?
Thanks for that recipes..
i like watch it
Can we drink it. Mixed with hot water?
Thanks for sharing
I was watching and pausing the video a few times to take notes that I almost lost it from the screen. So I accidentally hit dislike. I loved the video! I’ve just discovered your site and am learning so much. I’m a note taker, plus when disaster strikes, we may not have electricity, but I’ll have my notebooks. So glad that I also watched your video on the 15 Medicinal Herbs to Grow and Their Common Uses, just in time for the season. Please keep your videos coming! Thanks and God bless you and your family!
OMG I hadn't even thought about the WHAT IF I CAN'T GO BACK AND REWATCH MY SAVED VIDEOS 😳 I'll be buying some notebooks again now so thank you 💗 😊!
Thank you! Love your channel ❤
Thanks Carolyn. What are your thoughts about an aggressive mixture of hyssop, garlic in a DMSO carrier for adults. My understanding is that DMSO will penetrate and deliver "payload" very deeply and quickly. DMSO is great stuff for farm critters, so... just an idea.
Wondering the same thing.. which brand of DMSO is the right one!
What is DMSO? I’m new to herbs just started making extracts
DMSO will kill you if you drink it! Do not experiment on your children. I know a woman who died from taking it orally!!!❤
Thank you for this, great tips!
Thank you 😇🙏🏻
Wow ty. Easy and effective!
What is that ACV Oxi......, ? Hoa to make it and that would be good to have on hand Thank You for your response
Thanks so much Carolyn!!! So informative and helpful!!! Can I ask what brand of essential oils to use?? I've heard that some are better than others. Thanks again.
Maybe the salve can be frozen to keep it for longer than 2 weeks?
Heat it only in a double boiler just until it's warm otherwise one destroys the vitamins in the honey.
Have and salve rhyme. The L is silent. Lavender is anti-microbial as well. I cured a painful case of mastitis with just lavender oil.
Thank you
I really wish I knew about this years ago.
Just made it! Thank you!
Thank you! I really like your videos. I have put garlic on my skin to treat ringworm and got badly burned by the garlic? Can this salve irritate or burn the skin?
I was wondering if you have any recommendations for an alternative to lavender oil for babies? I've never liked it and my baby couldn't stand it either, she'd cry and fuss more whenever I tried to use it for her few colds. She does love mint oils though (which I've been told not to use on babies) as I have it in my hand oil.
Do you have a recipe for something called horse salve? My grandma always had it. I don’t know what it was made of. She used it for lotion, cuts, burns. I do t know if it was actually for horses. As a kid I thought it was called that because it was made from horses? Now as an adult I realize maybe it was made for horses 😬 she would get it from someone & stored it in an old pill bottle so no ingredient list. Thanks for all the information you share.
Can I substitute olive oil for a different oil or does it have to be olive oil?
Oh my goodness best video ever. Thank you so much for this information. Would love more on the whooping cough though.💗
Oh wowzers Carolyn, i made these minutes after watching your video cuz hubs and grandson were fighting a cough for days... well their cough is no longer tight and coughing wayless... i will continue to keep it up. But i cant THANK YOU ENOUGH for this wisdom you keep sharing. God Bless you my sweet youtube friend 💗🙏💗🙏
First of all. Take the child to urgent care or ER to be seen . I recommend this first as if you dont,it could be classified as child abuse. Then use this. For croup and or whooping cough. A regular cold for an older child is ok.
Look up on Dr. Suzanne Humphries Vitamin C for whooping cough.
CAN I USE THIS FOR A DIAPER RASH?? You had mentioned it! My daughter has a terrible diaper rash right now. It doesn't seem to go away! I use lavender essential oil & Roman chamomile with a little coconut & olive oil. Plus I'm using a salve from the honest company. It is helping but hasn't completely healed.
Question about the garlic - isn't raw garlic sometimes harsh on sensitive skin? I used it once on myself just chopped up and it caused a rash that burned - does blending it with the oil make the garlic less harsh?
Im wandering the same too. I once tried raw garlic on my chest & it burned it & left a scar.
I'm guessing that the coconut oil would take away from the burn as I'm positive she wouldn't suggest it for babies otherwise 😊but I know that oils tend to help with that type of issue not happening 😉
How long will it keep? Very nice and simple recipe
Any recommendations for a book with these remedies ?
Here are some we like here: homesteadingfamily.com/best-homesteading-books/
THANKS FOR THE VIDEO, JUST SUBSCRIBED.
Blend in water with sodium bicarbonate to get rid of smell in blender afterwards
Great video, thanks. Would this be helpful for asthma-related coughs as well?
Not sure speak to ur doc bye
does the garlic burn a babies chest
taste good
Do you ever use elderberry?
We only have regular apple cider vinegar, not the raw kind, will that be okay?
Make sure the lavender oil is organic - young living or doterra
Thank you so much for this video! It is very timely as my family has been hit hard with coughs this year. Question about the salve use on babies. I've heard that EOs should not be used on kids under 2 but there is Lavender EO in the salve. Have I heard incorrectly or what makes it baby safe in this instance? Thanks so much Carolyn!
Lavender EO can be used on babies, but any EO should be used in a carrier oil (like in the salve Carolyn made) when using for babies. There are some good resources online and also a book on using EOs for babies. I think the author is a nurse.
I'm allergic to lavender. Could you use eucalyptus oil instead?
Do you have a substitute suggestion for someone allergic to lavender?
Help i dont have lavender ...ibhave geranium, eucalyptus, tea tree
What about the blistering of the skin from the garlic?
I was told to leave it uncovered when applied to skin.
The olive oil on the skin is to protect from irritation caused by garlic. You could try an extra layer of cloth between the poultice and the skin for someone who is extra sensitive.
can you put the auximel(spelling?) into some hot water or tea if the taste is too much?
Yes you could put the oxymel in a tea or turn into a tea but if you use raw honey make sure it's not hotter than 100 degrees or it will not be raw honey anymore which has much more medicinal benefits for us😊
I cannot understand the specific type of garlic you mentioned. Please share the name. Thank you
You have a book on this all .
For an older adult u mentioned making a recipe Where can I find and how do I get to your site? Ty
Our website is www.homesteadingfamily.com
Would sorghum or molasses work as well as honey?
Has anyone made this with a different EO, other than lavender?
I have been looking for the garlic that you grow, "sweet pea" and can't find it. Would you point me in the right direction, please? Is it an heirloom variety?
recommendation for substituting the lavender? My daughter is allergic.
Leave it out or double up on the others.
Living in my area would be hard to get the oils here .
I can’t find the video you recommended to watch towards the end of this video.
Here it is: ruclips.net/video/KYnFgMEb8kE/видео.html
Mullein will loosen chest congestion.
What substitution do you recommend if person has lavender allergy?
maybe chamomile?? I don't know if it would preserve the salve like she claims the lavender does, but it does have calming properties. I'm not an expert though, so just a suggestion.
I make my own cough syrup but it's not for kids. It calls for honey, peppermint candy with real peppermint oil in it, horehound candy with real horehound herbal oil in it, lemon or lime juice 40 proof whiskey and for good measure fresh grind cracked black pepper.
When I apply this when nursing, do I apply it to the breast before she nurses, or just apply it to her skin before each feed? This is okay to put on my 2 month old? The garlic salve I mean
I’m pretty sure she meant to apply externally…topically -directly to the feet,chest, back and throat of the baby as young as newborn. Applying every time you nurse is more about frequency, so that you do it enough times a day, so you really don’t need to apply it on your breast at all.
Good information but I'd like to throw some constructive criticism your way... me and even my kids really didn't care for the side angle videos where you're looking the other direction it's really nice to watch you because you're so nice and honest and sincere but when it's a side angle it looks not personal... I know that's the new modern way to shoot videos for seminars and such but it just didn't seem to fit your personality LOL.... we just didn't like it so just to let you know that's our Viewpoint.... thanks Carolyn
ive been cougin for 2 months
How about just garlic and coconut oil
Garlic burns the skin if put directly to the skin. 👀🔥👀🔥 You need a barrier cloth between garlic and skin.
What age baby would you say this is safe to use on?
Don't. Honey should never be given to babies.
@@jessl1934she's talking about the garlic salve, not the oxymel, I'm pretty sure 😉
Can I use my fermented garlic to make the salve?
OMG great question... I just made my first quart of honey fermented garlic in December and I'm hooked 😋 ❤but I would love to know what Carolyn would say on this question 🤔 😊
I did use my fermented garlic to make the salve and didn't have any issues
