* Pour yourself a glass of Orange Juice or any juice with high vitamin C content….I also love to drink Ocean Spray cranberry juice!! 🙂

I do this a few times a day whenever I’m sick or even when I start to feel like I’m about to get sick!! Garlic is a natural antibiotic…..trust me, Christine, try this and you will feel better after a few hours!! 😉 I’ve been doing this for a few years now and touch wood, I hardly get colds anymore…..garlic is such a miracle cure, I tell everyone about it!! 😉 And if you’re worried about the bad breath, don’t be, if you swollow it the way I explained then it should be very minimal!! 😉 Good luck and I hope you get better soon, beautiful girl!! 🙂 xXx
If I am brave… I will try, LOL!
Thank you!!
