10 natural powerful antibiotics

Nature has given us a huge source of natural medicines to treat a variety of diseases and conditions in a completely natural way. So why do we often resort to drugs and chemical medicines when we have a health problem?
The 10 natural antibiotics for infections that drug companies don't want you to know are:

1. garlic:
By eating a few cloves of garlic each day, you can effectively fight off all kinds of bacteria, viruses and infections. Studies have shown that garlic can help with cases as severe as symptoms of AIDS, diabetes and high blood pressure.
It is also very effective in relieving the effects of colds, flu cases and toothaches. It doesn't hurt. Organic garlic is also quite affordable!
Using garlic in cooking a meal is not enough, to maximize and take advantage of its full antibiotic properties you will have to crush the garlic and eat it raw. A great way to try it is in a salad, or a soup.

2. Onions:
Onions are closely related to garlic, they have similar health benefits, such as reducing pain and inflammation, as well as illnesses like colds and hot spots.

3. Grapefruit seed extract
Grapefruit seed extract is conventionally used as an antimicrobial compound. It has shown great promise in preventing the growth of various fungi and bacteria, even being recommended to be used for cleaning the bathroom.
You will need to dilute the extract when using it.

4. Horseradish
Horseradish gives your body energy, it is powerful! Horseradish helps your body defend itself against potential illnesses. It also promotes healthy blood circulation and has antibiotic properties when broken down in the stomach.
Horseradish can treat certain conditions such as urinary tract infection, kidney stones and bronchitis.
Eat it raw (mixed or juice) or sliced with a quantity of vinegar for the best effects.

5. Vitamin C
Vitamin C, can be found in a wide variety of fruits, including oranges and pineapples. It is known for its ability to strengthen the immune system, which is why orange juice is soothing when you have a cold.
Vitamin C works wonders in skin care and for prenatal health.
To get vitamin C, drink 100% natural, organic orange juice or try eating an orange or two a few days a week.

6. Manuka honey
Manuka honey is made by bees in New Zealand and, like other types of honey, it contains peroxide which gives it its antibiotic properties. This product is present in many other types of honey, just New Zealand has marketed their honey better than anyone, and it also contains several other antibiotic components that are not found in other types of honey such as Methylglyoxal.
The downside to manuka honey is that it's a bit expensive.

7. Cinnamon
Cinnamon can help lower blood sugar in people treating diabetes. It also contains antibiotic properties which can help treat yeast infections.
There are a lot of ways to consume cinnamon. One of your favorites is to simmer the Sri Lankan cinnamon rind in a pot of water and pour the contents into a mug. You can then refrigerate the drink and consume it for several days. Very refreshing!

8. Apple cider vinegar:

9. Ginger
It is known that ginger can be used in the treatment of flu and colds. It is also effective in the treatment of stomach aches and nausea, as well as the treatment of muscle and joint pain.
For women, there is a reason to avoid consuming ginger in very large amounts; if you are expecting to be pregnant. However, some experts are concerned that ginger, in this case, could lead to miscarriage.
