10 Personal Uses Tea Tree Oil Can Help

Tea Tree Oil, also known as Melaleuca alternifolia, can be found in a wide spectrum of skin care and spa products that can comfort and beautify the appearance of skin.

1. Plantar Warts

Plantar warts and palmer warts are noncancerous skin growths, caused by a viral infection in the top layer of the skin. Put tea tree oil directly on the wart, rub it in, and let dry before putting on footwear/socks.  It’s best to do this at night before you go to bed. Rub it on, read for 15-20 minutes, and let it dry.

“But don’t wear socks to bed, as that adds moisture, which fungus thrives in,” says Krista Moyer, N.D., a naturopath doctor at Broadway Wellness in Vancouver, British Columbia.

For sensitive skin, you can add tea tree oil to a carrier oil like olive or coconut oil.

2. Dandruff

When tea tree oil is applied on the scalp, it penetrates the hair follicles, unclogs them and kills microorganisms that trigger dandruff, itchy scalp and irritation. It effectively moisturizes the hair and scalp. So it is one of the best solutions for dry and itchy scalp. It helps to get rid of the dead skin cells and dirt on the scalp thereby creating a favorable environment for healthy hair growth and scalp.

Tea Tree Oil for Scalp Treatment:

1. Take a small application bottle and fill it with 3/4 full of any carrier oil like jojoba oil, olive oil, coconut oil, almond oil, etc.
2. Add 10-15 drops of tea tree oil in it and mix it well.
3. Apply this to your scalp and hair.
4. Massage it gently for few minutes to make oil saturated all over the scalp.
5. You will feel some tingling effect on your scalp but don’t worry about it! It’s a good thing!
6. Wash your hair with shampoo and apply conditioner.
7. This process helps to keep all your scalp problems at bay.

3. Skin Spots

Tea tree oil can control the sebum in the skin as well as speed up healing process.Tea tree oil can be applied directly to pimples for an effective and natural skin spot and pimple treatment. It contains natural properties which make it an excellent alternative to harsh synthetic chemicals. Just a small amount of oil will penetrate the skin to unblock the sebaceous glands, clean out pores and dry out whiteheads, blackheads, pimples and other blemishes.

To apply, pour a few drops of tea tree oil onto a cotton bud, cotton pad or tissue. Gently dab the tea tree oil onto any pimples or spots. Leave for a few hours, or overnight. The redness and swelling should decrease.

4. Sinus irritations

Tea tree oil helps with irritations of the nasal and respiratory system. Place a few drops of tea tree oil in small saucepan of boiling water. Remove from heat and tent with a towel over your head. Breathe in for 10-15 minutes. This inhalation will loosen phlegm when you’re congested.

5. Tick Removal

Just add to skin and the little stinker will usually unlatch.

6. Toenail Fungus and Athlete’s Foot

Dab a few drops directly on the site or soak a cotton ball in tea tree oil and rub it on the affected area. Try making a mixture of tea tree oil and olive oil and rubbing in on your nail. You can reapply this mixture or pure tea tree oil as often as you like.Twice per day is usually sufficient for helping mild cases.

7. Skin Tags

Clean your skin tag and the surrounding area with warm water and mild soap. Pat dry with a clean towel. Add one drop of undiluted tea tree oil to the gauze pad portion of an adhesive bandage. Secure the bandage over your skin tag so the tea tree oil soaked gauze pad is in direct contact with the skin tag.

8. Ringworm

Cleanse and thoroughly dry the skin area that is affected by ringworm. Immediately place any linens used on the affected skin in the dirty laundry to avoid risk of further contamination. Put several drops of tea tree oil on the end of a sterile cotton swab, and apply it directly to the ringworm. Completely cover all affected areas with the oil. Repeat this process three times per day.

9. Psoriasis

Add a few drops of tea tree oil to your body wash, lather, wait then rinse. Or apply tea tree oil directly to your problem areas then when the tea tree oil has been absorbed apply a tea tree oil enriched moisturizing cream. 5% tea tree oil mix.

10. Yeast Growth

Studies have found that tea tree oil disrupts the membranes of yeast cells, and lavender kills Candida in a test tube. Mix them together and yeast doesn’t have a chance.

• 5 drops tea tree essential oil
• 5 drops lavender essential oil
• Distilled water

Mix the tea tree and lavender oils with a few drops of distilled water. Using a cotton swab, dab the blend on the affected parts of the body.

So there you have ten tea tree oil remedies that are so easy to do at home without using harsh chemicals or expensive medications. Have you tried any? If so, which ones?

10 Herbs That Kill Viruses And Clear Lungs

“…The God of nature directs the human agent to USE NATURAL REMEDIES now.  {2SM 286.4}  

1. Oregano

This potent herb has many great benefits, but it’s best known for being very useful in killing viruses and bacteria. It has been proven to drastically reduce viral activity in just 15 minutes and is considered useful against herpes simplex type 1, rotavirus, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).
 
How to use it: To use it against a virus, you can drink the tea daily, add chopped oregano to your food, or take it dried and in capsules. To clean surfaces, mix a few drops of essential oil with water and shake thoroughly before spraying the surface and wiping it down.
 
Viruses aren’t the only reason to take oregano though. It also contains natural decongestants and antihistamines. When you take it daily, it can actually boost lung function, whether or not you’re sick.
 
2. Peppermint
You probably already know that peppermint is excellent for opening up your lungs and nasal passages. It contains menthol, which reduces swelling in the nose and other membranes to ease breathing, but it also loosens up any mucus forming in the lungs.
 
How to use it: A hot cup of peppermint tea is a great way to remedy a nasty cold that has settled in your lungs.
 
Peppermint leaf extract is also quite potent when used against viruses and will greatly reduce the influence of the virus. Not only does it attack the virus, peppermint also reducing inflammatory compounds found in the body, so you’ll feel better, too. It treats the symptoms while preventing the virus from wreaking havoc in your body.
 
3. Lemon Balm
Commonly used as a fragrant addition to food, lemon balm has proven useful against bird flu, herpes, HIV-1, and enterovirus 71. It works to prevent replication of the virus, which is where the trouble starts, and can keep it from spreading in your body.
 
How to use it: The essential oil is best if you want to really keep it potent, but for everyday use, try making a tea.
 
This herb is actually useful for aromatherapy and is absorbed easily through the lungs. It contains triterpenes that will help calm your body and ease respiratory issues somewhat. To use the power of aromatherapy, crush the fresh leaves, cup in your hands, and inhale deeply several times.
 
4. Eucalyptus
This powerful medicinal plant is often found in over-the-counter cold remedies for the very fact that it is useful in opening up your lungs. It does this by stimulating the cilia in your lungs (the tiny little hair-like protuberances) to clear out mucus and other gunk that may be caught up in your lungs. In addition, it boosts your circulation, making it easier for the body to flush the virus out.
 
How to use it: you can take it orally in a tea or syrup, or you can apply it to the skin (dilute first). Rubbing eucalyptus oil on the soles of your feet may help your body recover from a virus faster than usual.
 
Since eucalyptus kills off bacteria, fungi, and viruses, it can frequently be found in nasal rinses, which allow you to flush out mucus, plus kill off the virus. It fights against diseases and can be helpful to keep in your natural first aid kit.
 
5. Osha Root
While osha root tends to be studied more for its possibilities in cancer treatment, it has also been examined as a potential antiviral. It reduces inflammation and helps prevent oxidative stress, at least in the trial run. There still isn’t enough evidence to make big claims, but many people use the root to treat HIV and AIDS.

When it comes to congested lungs, powdered osha root is considered to be very useful in easing congestion. It helps you take deeper breaths by improving circulation and helping the body clear the lungs.
 
How to use it: You can take osha root in powder form or as a herbal extract or tincture. Start small, as there’s no regulated dosage amount as of yet. Take with caution, as the effects have not been fully studied.
 
6. Ginger
Most people enjoy ginger in their food, or in a nice cup of hot ginger lemon tea. However, if you feel like you’re coming down with something, you’ll want to take a little more than you would just for flavor. Ginger can break up the mucus in your lungs and boosts circulation, to ease breathing when you are sick.
 
Gingerols and zingerone, found in this zingy herb, have been shown to stop viruses from replicating. They can also stop the viruses from spreading throughout your body by blocking the virus from the cells that they attempt to take over.
 
7. Rosemary
If you have an herb garden, you likely already have rosemary in it. Most people use it for their cooking regularly, but you can also pop it into your medicinal herb cupboard. Rosemary naturally attacks viruses and fights off everything from hepatitis to influenza, thanks to its oleanolic acid.
 
How to use it: Rosemary tea is greatly beneficial if you’re starting to get a cold or dealing with another virus. It is also ideal for clearing out your lungs if you live in an area that is highly polluted. Take a cup of tea daily to ease mucus build-up and to protect your lungs.
 
8. Dandelion
As a natural anti-inflammatory, dandelion can be helpful in treating lung disease. This common flower is often considered a weed, but it has so much more potential.
 
How to use it: If your lungs are inflamed due to a disease, then dandelion tea made from dried roots or tincture taken regularly can be helpful.
 
You’ll also find that dandelions have been studied for their antiviral properties, particularly in regards to dengue fever, HIV, and hepatitis B. For a so-called weed, this little flower is rather useful.
 
9. Licorice
Did you know that licorice root is a natural expectorant? It helps loosen the mucus in your body and flush it out by making you cough. It’s best to get that mucus out of your lungs, after all. The root also helps with sore throats and reduces inflammation throughout the entire system.
 
The Chinese have used licorice for many years to treat an assortment of different diseases. However, this root contains substances like liquiritigen, glabridin, and glycyrrhizin, all of which work to prevent viruses from getting a hold in your body.
 
How to use it: Licorice root can be made into a tea or a syrup that you can take regularly when you feel a cold coming on.
 
10. Elderberry
You’re likely familiar with elderberries as a way to treat illness in general and as an immunity booster. However, this tiny fruit, commonly made into syrup, is helpful in treating viruses and keeping the lungs clear. In fact, studies have shown that elderberries prevent viruses from getting into cells, reducing the contagion of the virus, and helping shut it all down.
 
How to use it: If you have an upper respiratory infection, elderberry syrup is a good treatment for this. It can reduce the amount of time that you’re sick and also helps reduce the severity of the symptoms.
There are plenty of herbs for any type of issue you’re facing, but these 10 are particularly good for both lungs and preventing viruses. Many have other benefits, as well.

With the way things are in the world today, it’s no wonder we’re all looking for ways to stay healthy. Keeping your immune system in great shape is always good, but it’s a good idea to know what to do if you are sick already. Fortunately, there are plenty of natural ways to keep viruses at bay and to ensure your lungs stay clear, even if you do get sick.
 
Something to note about these treatments is that they do well in concentrated form. That means you’ll probably want to try more than just a cup of tea if you feel something icky coming on. Essential oils, extracts, or concentrated tinctures are all excellent choices when you are being threatened by a virus.

8 Essential Oils for Sore Throat Pain

Did you know that essential oils can actually help make a sore throat go away quicker or avoid one altogether? Sore throats can happen any time of the year for a variety of reasons. A sore throat is an irritation, scratchiness, or pain of the throat that often worsens when swallowing.

Your throat or pharynx, by definition, is the tube that carries food to your esophagus and air to your windpipe and larynx (your voice box). A common sore throat is caused by a viral infection while a strep throat is a bacterial infection, which can be from a number of different strains of bacteria. Unfortunately, both are quite contagious and can be passed from person to person with close contact.

The most common cause of a sore throat is a cold or the flu. You often first realize a cold or the flu is coming on when you get that first bit of pain and scratchiness in your throat. A sore throat can also be caused by allergies, strep throat, mononucleosis, tonsillitis, smoking or acid reflux.

Aside from the typically recommended rest, proper nutrition, plenty of liquids, hot teas and gargling, sore throat remedies include tapping into the natural power of essential oils for sore throat pain!

Top Essential Oils for Sore Throat

The uses for essential oils truly are endless and if you have read any of my other essential oil articles, you’re probably not even that surprised that they can be used for sore throats, too.

The following essential oils for sore throat pain will kill germs, ease inflammation, and speed the healing of this annoying and painful malady:

1. Peppermint

Peppermint oil is commonly used for the treatment of the common cold, cough, sinus infections, respiratory infections, and inflammation of the mouth and throat, including sore throats. It’s also used for digestive problems, including heartburn, nausea, vomiting, morning sickness, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), cramps of the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract and bile ducts, upset stomach, diarrhea, bacterial overgrowth of the small intestine, and gas.

Peppermint essential oil contains menthol, which provides a cooling sensation and a calming effect on the body. Research indicates that the antioxidant, antimicrobial, and decongestant properties of peppermint essential oil can help alleviate your sore throat. Menthol also helps to soothe and calm sore throats as well as thin mucus and break up coughs.

2. Lemon

Lemon essential oil is known for its ability to cleanse toxins from any part of the body and is widely used to stimulate lymph drainage, to rejuvenate energy and purify skin.

Lemon oil is derived from the skin of the lemon. It is excellent for sore throats since it is antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, high in vitamin C, increases salivation, and helps keep the throat moist.

3. Eucalyptus

Today, oil from the eucalyptus tree appears in many over-the-counter cough and cold products to relieve congestion. The health benefits of eucalyptus oil are due to its ability to stimulate immunity, provide antioxidant protection, and improve respiratory circulation.

Originally referred to as “eucalyptol” by the scientific community, the health benefits of eucalyptus oil come from a chemical now known as cineole, which is an organic compound shown to hold astounding, widespread medicinal effects — including everything from reducing inflammation and pain to killing leukemia cells! It’s no wonder it can be one of the steps to beat a cold and sore throat.

4. Oregano

This well-known herb in oil form is a smart choice for defense against a sore throat. There is evidence that the essential oil of oregano has antifungal and antiviral properties. One study even showed that treatment with oregano oil may be useful for parasite infections.

If you have any doubts that oregano oil can prevent and treat a sore throat, it has even been shown to kill the superbug MRSA both as a liquid and as a vapor — and its antimicrobial activity is not diminished by heating it in boiling water.

5. Clove

Clove essential oil is useful for boosting the immune system, so it is extremely useful at discouraging and relieving a sore throat. The sore throat benefits of clove oil can be attributed to its antimicrobial, antifungal, antiseptic, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and stimulating properties. Chewing on a clove bud can help a sore throat (as well as a toothache).

A study published in Phytotherapy Research found that clove essential oil shows antimicrobial activity against a large number of multi-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis. Its antiviral properties and ability to purify blood increases resistance to a multitude of diseases, including sore throats.

6. Hyssop

Hyssop was used in ancient times as a cleansing herb for temples and other sacred places. In ancient Greece, the physicians Galen and Hippocrates valued hyssop for inflammation of the throat and chest, pleurisy, and other bronchial complaints.

It’s not surprising that hyssop has a long history of medicinal use. The antiseptic properties of hyssop oil make it a powerful substance for fighting infections and killing bacteria. Whether your sore throat is viral or bacterial, hyssop is an excellent choice for a sore throat as well as lung inflammation.

7. Thyme

Thyme oil is one of the strongest antioxidants and antimicrobials known, and it has been used as a medicinal herb since ancient times. Thyme supports the immune, respiratory, digestive, nervous, and other body systems.

A 2011 study tested thyme oil’s response to 120 strains of bacteria isolated from patients with infections of the oral cavity, respiratory and genitourinary tracts. The results of experiments showed that the oil from the thyme plant exhibited extremely strong activity against all of the clinical strains. Thyme oil even demonstrated a good efficacy against antibiotic-resistant strains. What a sure bet for that scratchy throat!

8. Juniper Berry

With a sweet, woodsy smell, juniper berry essential oil is a popular ingredient in many household cleaning products, aromatherapy blends, and fragrance sprays. Today, juniper berry essential oil is also commonly used as one of the best natural remedies for sore throat as well as respiratory infections, fatigue, muscle aches, and arthritis.

Juniper berries’ use for sore throat is validated by research that shows juniper berry essential oil actually contains over 87 different active constituent compounds, including strong antioxidants, antibacterial, and antifungals.

How to Use Essential Oils for Sore Throat

Essential oils can be used for a sore throat in three different ways: by inhalation, topical application, or internal consumption.

Inhalation

Aromatherapy is the therapeutic use of plant-derived, aromatic essential oils to promote physical and psychological well-being. One main way to use essential oils for aromatherapy is to inhale the smell or aroma of an essential oil.

When the scent of essential oil is inhaled, molecules enter the nasal cavities and stimulate a firing of mental responses in the limbic system of the brain, including the regulation of stress or calming responses such as heart rate, breathing patterns, production of hormones, and blood pressure. Aromatherapy can be obtained by using essential oils as direct inhalations, in a bath, in a vaporizer or humidifier, fan, vent, perfume, cologne, or through aromatherapy diffusers.

An easy way to regularly practice direct inhalation is to add one to two drops of an essential oil into the palms of your hands and rub them together to spread the oil. Next, cup your hands over your nose and take 5–10 deep and slow breaths. You can also add two to three drops of essential oil to a cotton ball and place it inside your pillow or in any place that will be easy to smell it.

Another excellent way to soothe a sore throat is by inhaling the steam of boiling water containing a few drops of some of the essential oils I just mentioned. Simply fill a big bowl with hot water and drape a towel over your head to create a tent and breathe in the steam. Of course, be careful not to burn yourself.

Oral Use

Many essential oils can be ingested by the mouth; however, it is critical to make sure that the oils you use are safe and pure. Many oils on the market may be diluted or blended with synthetics that are unsafe for ingesting. The FDA has approved some essential oils generically for internal use and given them the generally recognized as safe (GRAS) designation for human consumption.

By using essential oils in a gargle, you can directly have the essential oils come into contact with the problematic area. Simply add one to two drops of essential oil to half a glass of mildly warm water and gargle for a minute or two. Do not swallow the mixture after gargling.

A safe and effective way to consume essential oils according to The Healing Intelligence of Essential Oils: The Science of Advanced Aromatherapy, is to add one drop of oil to a glass of water or a teaspoon of honey. Other oral application options include using capsules, making tea, and cooking with essential oils.

Topical Application

Topical application of an essential oil involves placing essential oil on the skin, hair, mouth, teeth, nails, or mucous membranes of the body. When the oils touch the body, they penetrate rapidly.

Since pure essential oils are so potent, diluting them before using them on your body is important. You can dilute an essential oil with a carrier oil (such as olive, jojoba, sweet almond, or coconut oil) or a natural unscented lotion. Add 5–10 drops of essential oil to two tablespoons of carrier oil or natural unscented lotion. You can then apply the blended oil or lotion directly to an area of the body that will benefit the throat like the neck, chest, behind the ears, or bottoms of the feet.

7 Reasons You should Grow (and Eat) Asparagus

1. Asparagus – Plant it once; enjoy it over and over again.   Asparagus is a popular spring vegetable.  Most vegetables are annuals, meaning they need to be planted every year. However, asparagus is one of only a few perennial vegetables, meaning it comes back year after year. That’s why you can sometimes still find asparagus growing in the wild. Perhaps it is one of the herbs described in Prov. 27:25 “The hay appeareth, and the tender grass sheweth itself, and herbs of the mountains are gathered.”

2. “Asparagus Has a Nutritional Uniqueness that is Second to None.” 1 Our family first took notice of the nutritional uniqueness of asparagus when looking for a food source that was high in glutathione. “Asparagus is the highest plant-based source of glutathione.” 2 It is followed closely by avocado. Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant that helps the body to eliminate toxins. It boosts the immune system, and reduces your risk of cancer, as well as being beneficial to joints and cartilage.3 

3. Asparagus accounts for a significant portion of your daily nutritional needs. As we studied different nutrients and where they could be found in plant foods, asparagus was almost always on the list. It is almost like a multi-vitamin. “According to the reference daily intake (RDI) issued by the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine, asparagus accounts for a significant portion of your daily nutritional needs, Based on a 2,000-calorie diet, the RDI [Recommended daily intake] breaks down as follows [for what appears to be a heaping serving of asparagus—maybe 5-6 spears]:

Vitamin A: 18% of the RDI

Vitamin C: 12% of the RDI

Vitamin E: 7% of the RDI

Vitamin K: 57% of the RDI

Folate (vitamin B9): 34% of the RDI

Phosphorous: 5% of the RDI

Potassium: 6% of the RDI

Asparagus also offers ample supplies of riboflavin (vitamin B2), thiamine (vitamin B1), and iron.” 4

4.  Nutritionally speaking, asparagus is extremely well-balanced, anti-inflammatory and good for the brain. “High in vitamin K and folate (vitamin B9) [which can prevent neural tube defects in the fetus], asparagus is extremely well balanced, even among nutrient-rich vegetables.’ Asparagus is high in anti-inflammatory nutrients,’ said San Diego-based nutritionist Laura Flores. It also ‘provides a wide variety of antioxidant nutrients, including vitamin C, beta-carotene, vitamin E, and the minerals zinc, manganese and selenium.’"

“Furthermore, the vegetable contains the amino acid asparagine, which is important in the development and function of the brain, according to a study published in 2013 in the journal Neuron. It also contains chromium, a trace mineral that helps insulin do its job transporting glucose. It's also especially rich in glutathione, a detoxifying compound that can help destroy carcinogens. For this reason, asparagus may help fight or protect against certain cancers, including bone, breast, lung and colon cancers.”5

5.  Remember, asparagus contains vitamin E and it’s filled with vitamin K. “Asparagus is also a source of vitamin E, another important antioxidant. This vitamin helps strengthen your immune system and protects cells from the harmful effects of free radicals.

Along with other green, leafy vegetables, asparagus is a good source of vitamin K. The vitamin is crucial for coagulation (which helps your body stop bleeding after a cut) as well as bone health.

‘Most people think of calcium for healthy bones, but vitamin K is also important,’ says Gans. ‘It can actually help your body absorb calcium.’”6

6. You don’t have to buy asparagus organic! “Asparagus is a ‘Clean 15’ vegetable because it has a low pesticide load and is one of the safest conventionally grown crops to consume. According to Dr. Andrew Weil, it is a food that does not need to be purchased organic.”7   

7. “The good Lord made it, and we should eat it.”  to quote my grandfather, a Greek chef.  Genesis 3:18 says “… thou shalt eat the herb of the field;” also reminds us that asparagus (and other veggies) are included in God’s plan for good health.

6 Natural Cures For Ear Infection

Use the Simplest Remedies.--Nature will want some assistance to bring things to their proper condition, which may be found in the SIMPLEST REMEDIES…If the sick and suffering will do only as well as they know in regard to LIVING OUT THE PRINCIPLES OF HEALTH REFORM PERSEVERINGLY, THEN THEY WILL IN NINE CASES OUT OF TEN RECOVER FROM THEIR AILMENTS. --  Medical Ministry, pp. 223, 224 (Manuscript 22, 1887).  {2SM 287.4} 

What is an Ear Infection?

An ear infection occurs when fluid becomes trapped in the ear. Symptoms of ear infections include ear pain, fever, yellow drainage from the ear, and vomiting. Hearing difficulties, ringing of the ears, and balance problems could be signs of fluid buildup. Outer ear infections are caused by a mixture of heat, sweat, and scratching. Middle ear infections affect the space between the eardrum and the inner ear.

Inner ear infections can cause inflammation and can affect balance. An untreated ear infection can cause serious complications such as Mastoiditis, Meningitis, hearing loss, and perforation of the eardrum. Consider these natural remedies to treat your next ear infection.

Garlic

Garlic can be used as a natural antibiotic and pain reliever. Two to four drops of garlic oil can be applied to the ear 3 to 4 times a day. Garlic oil is made by cooking 2 cloves of garlic in 2 tbsp. of olive oil. The solution should be strained before application.

Olive Oil

Olive oil is one of the easiest ways to treat an ear infection. This remedy softens the wax, which makes it easier to remove buildup. A few drops of olive oil should be applied to the ear after it has been warmed. After the wax has softened, it can be removed with cotton swabs.

Basil

Basil is an effective way to cure ear infections. Basil juice can be made by crushing 4 to 5 leaves to extract the juice. Basil oil can also be mixed with a carrier oil and applied around the ear. This treatment should be applied twice a day.

Onion

Onions are one of the most common ways to treat an ear infection. People have the option to use onion juice or a compress. A few drops of onion juice can be applied to the ear twice a day. An onion compress is made by cutting an onion in half and roasting it in the oven for 1 minute. The onion should be placed in a cloth and held against the ear for 10 minutes.

Tea Tree Oil

Tea tree oil can be used as an antibacterial, antiviral, and antiseptic treatment. Three drops of tea tree oil, 2 T. olive oil, and 1 t. lemon juice can be heated to soothe and cure ear infections. The application should be applied with a dropper 2 to 3 times a day.

Mullein Oil

Mullein Oil will need to be prepared a few weeks in advance. The ingredients for this remedy include dried mullein, 2 to 3 crushed garlic cloves, St. John’s wort, 1/4 t. of Vitamin E oil, and olive oil. The mullein oil should be placed in a mason jar before adding the herbs. The jar should be filled with olive oil one-half inch from the top. The Vitamin E oil should be applied before sealing the jar and soaking it for 2 to 4 weeks. The oil can then be strained and placed in another bottle. Three to five drops can be applied for 15 minutes.

An ear infection is a buildup of fluid or wax that causes inflammation and discomfort. Natural remedies are an excellent alternative to antibiotic treatment. These homeopathic treatments use garlic, olive oil, basil, onion, tea tree oil, and mullein oil to cure the infection.
